• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE

[Description steven 2004-01-08 08:19:10 UTC]

When upgrading my system tetex is marked as to has be upgraded.  If I have version 1.0.7-r13 installed portage says it has to be upgraded by version 2.0.2-r1.  After doing that it says tetex version 2.0.2-r1 has to be replaced by version 1.0.7-r13 and so on and so on ...
If you need some extra information about my system, don't hesitate asking me.

Did you install dvipdfm? If so, see bug #36019

Thanks,that did the trick.  Strange this dependency isn't caught when upgrading from the first version to the other.
