Description Pavel Potocek 2011-12-12 12:22:33 UTC

dev-python/pyopencl-0.92 should not automatically pull in CUDA dependency. >=dev-util/nvidia-cuda-toolkit-3.0 conflicts with dev-util/ati-stream-sdk-2.3-r1::c1pher , which is needed by users of AMD graphic cards. The latter package should also provide dependency. The same problem as on Ubuntu:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pyopencl/+bug/763457

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. layman -a c1pher
2. emerge -v ati-stream-sdk 
3. download necessary file from amd.com, as advised in emerge output
4. emerge ati-stream-sdk
5. emerge -v pyopencl
Actual Results:  
Emerge failed, package conflict:
dev-util/ati-stream-sdk-2.3-r1::c1pher
dev-util/nvidia-cuda-toolkit-4.0::gentoo
 pulled in by >=dev-util/nvidia-cuda-toolkit-3.0
 required by dev-python/pyopencl-0.92::gentoo

Expected Results:  
Emerge: success

Packages in the main tree should never depend on packages in overlays. You can fix the overlay by adding an alternative cat/pkg there that has the dependency on the other package in the overlay.

Or you can look at bug #320607 comment #7 for the current status of the bug you are re-reporting.
