Description F 2010-01-03 10:11:03 UTC

I just tried:
emerge lyx  

on a system where nothing but vim is installed, and I got the result (see attachment)

I got this after I added  the use flag  doc  to make.conf (and added +jadetex to /etc/portage/package.use for app-text/docbook-sgml-utils  that it then also required)
Running  without doc  reports no error.

Running  without doc  reports no error.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.start with clean current gentoo installation (install only vim and nload, nothing else)
2.add doc to make.conf  (and jadetex for app-text/docbook-sgml-utils)
3.emerge lyx

Try USE="-doc" emerge lyx
if that works try emerge lyx again, this time you will have more packages installed so the circular dependencies should go away
