Description janne.oinonen 2004-02-15 06:07:16 UTC

Normal chrooted install I have succeeded many times before now fails on pam-0.77 due missing dependencies.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. ROOT=/foo emerge -p system
2. notice glib-1.2* missing and pwdb emerging AFTER pam
3.

Actual Results:  
portage would exit on pam-0.77 - libglib.a and libpwdb.a not found

Expected Results:  
emerge dev-libs/glib/glib-1.2.0-r5 sys-libs/pwdb

Portage seems to completely ignore pam's dependancies for sure...

[14:50:44] < @warpzero > why not just list the packages in system in the order?

^^^ is a suitable short term fix

Comment 4 Paul Sumner 2004-05-10 08:14:46 UTC

Confirmed short term fix works:

emerge =dev-libs/glib-1.2.10-r5
emerge sys-libs/pwdb
emerge pam

...pam-0.77 merged.

Thanks much.
