Description Manuel McLure 2004-02-14 11:50:15 UTC
It seems like imagemagick 5.5.7.15 is marked "x86", while perlmagick 5.5.7.15 is marked "~x86" - this causes a weird update loop because perlmagick depends on the same version of imagemagick. If you have both perlmagick and imagemagick 5.5.6-r1 installed, an emerge -uD world will upgrade imagemagick to 5.5.7.15. The next emerge -uD world will downgrade it back to 5.5.6-r1, the next will upgrade it, and so on. It seems like the keywords on both of these packages should be kept in sync.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Emerge imagemagick and perlmagick onto a system with KEYWORDS="x86"
2. emerge -uD world
3. emerge -uD world

Actual Results:  
Each time you run "emerge -uD world", the version of imagemagick is switched
between 5.5.7.15 and 5.5.6-r1

Expected Results:  
Both imagemagick and perlmagick should be in sync.

Workaround is to add

dev-perl/perlmagick ~x86

to /etc/portage/package.keywords
