Bug 18468 – emerge system not updating nano / emerge system updating vim

• Product: Portage Development
• Status: RESOLVED INVALID

[Description Arun Bhanu (RETIRED) 2003-03-30 07:10:40 UTC]

When I do a emerge -upv --deep system vim is shown in the list of packages that 
will be updated. But vim is not part of system. But it is being updated as part 
of system update.

Nano is part of the system class by the virtue of virtual/editor entry in 
the /etc/make.profile/packages. But it is not shown as one of the packages that 
will be updated as part of system. But when you do a emerge -upv --deep world 
it shows that there is an update for nano available. 

Output of emerge -upv --deep world & emerge -upv --deep system attached below.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge -upv --deep system
2. emerge -upv --deep world
Actual Results:  
spock bugs # emerge -upv --deep system

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Expected Results:  
IMHO, vim should not be part of system update and nano should be part of system 
update.

[Comment 1 Martin Holzer (RETIRED) 2003-03-30 12:34:50 UTC]

in both situations system and world has nothing to do with the packages

it depend on your useflags and the ebuild compile dependiencies if a packages will be upgraded(or installed newly) or not
