Description Jeremy Olexa (darkside) (RETIRED) archtester gentoo-dev Security 2014-04-13 20:17:53 UTC
* Error: circular dependencies:

(virtual/pkgconfig-0-r1::gentoo_prefix, ebuild scheduled for merge) depends on
 (dev-util/pkgconfig-0.28-r1::gentoo_prefix, ebuild scheduled for merge) (runtime)
  (dev-libs/glib-2.38.2::gentoo_prefix, ebuild scheduled for merge) (buildtime)
   (virtual/pkgconfig-0-r1::gentoo_prefix, ebuild scheduled for merge) (buildtime)

It might be possible to break this cycle
by applying the following change:
- dev-util/pkgconfig-0.28-r1 (Change USE: +internal-glib)

The suggested fix does let the build succeed.

I just fixed this five minutes ago.
