Bug 256289 – sys-apps/portage-2.1.6.4: testing libsdl version with needed USE flag is not offered in error message

• Product: Portage Development
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Pacho Ramos 2009-01-25 08:48:39 UTC]

When I try to run emerge -avuDN world I get:
These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies... done!

emerge: there are no ebuilds built with USE flags to satisfy "media-libs/libsdl[joystick]".
!!! One of the following packages is required to complete your request:
- media-libs/libsdl-1.2.13 (Missing IUSE: joystick)
- media-libs/libsdl-1.2.11-r2 (Missing IUSE: joystick)
(dependency required by "games-sports/xmoto-0.5.0-r1" [ebuild])
(dependency required by "world" [argument])

I would expect that portage would notify me that media-libs/libsdl-1.2.13-r1 already offers "joystick" USE flag or, even better, emerge would show me a message saying that media-libs/libsdl-1.2.13-r1 is masked by ~x86 (like would be shown if xmoto would require that version in its deps)

Thanks
