Bug 51674 – emerge -u world fails - after a recent emerge sync ibm-jdk-bin may be the problem

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED NEEDINFO

[Description morbius 2004-05-21 10:31:01 UTC]

Calculating world dependencies -
emerge: there are no masked or unmasked ebuilds to satisfy ">=virtual/jdk-1.3*".

!!! Problem with ebuild net-www/opera-7.50
!!! Possibly a DEPEND/*DEPEND problem.
!!! Depgraph creation failed


I had (some time ago) emerged ibm-jdk-bin. This works fine, as did an emerge
of opera 7.23.  After an emerge sync, emerge -upv world gives the above messages.
I did a quickpkg of ibm-jdk, to save the package, and then an emerge -C ibm-jdk
to remove it and the problem went away.  Re-emerging (with -k) the ibm-jdk package causes the problem to reappear
Curiously, the opera-7.50 ebuild shows no dependancy on java that I could see.

Take a look at this link:

`emerge -Duptv opera` or `emerge -eptv opera` will let you see the dependcy tree.

[Comment 2 morbius 2004-05-21 11:01:25 UTC]

doing an 'emerge -eptv opera' as described in comment #1 gives...

These are the packages that I would merge, in reverse order:

emerge: there are no masked or unmasked ebuilds to satisfy ">=virtual/jdk-1.3*".

!!! Error calculating dependencies. Please correct.

[Comment 3 Andy Daniels 2004-06-25 08:51:30 UTC]

I can't seem to find any ties between ibm-jdk-bin and opera, or reproduce the problem.  Please confirm that the problem still exists with a recent rsync.

Also...
(1) Which ebuild of ibm-jdk-bin are you using?
(2) If you are installing keyworded packages, it is usually best to...
    echo dev-java/ibm-jdk-bin >> /etc/portage/package.keywords

Thanks =D

i cannot reproduce this in any way, nor can i find anything that could cauze this, if you are still having this problem with a recent rsync, and latest packages, please reopen the bug
