failed depcalc

For some odd reason, when I upgrade from one version of gnuradio to the next, everything works perfectly smoothly, except if I try to upgrade to the live version.

Slot is 0/${PV}

In this one, it looks like gnuradio-9999 is masked somehow, because it immediately selects gnuradio-3.7.6.1 to satisfy the gnuradio argument:

      Arg: gnuradio
     Atom: net-wireless/gnuradio
   ebuild: net-wireless/gnuradio-3.7.6.1::maintainer-zero

In this one, gnuradio-9999 is not masked anymore, because it is immediately selected to satisfy the gnuradio argument:

      Arg: gnuradio
     Atom: net-wireless/gnuradio
   ebuild: net-wireless/gnuradio-9999::maintainer-zero
Comment 3 Zac Medico gentoo-dev 2015-02-22 06:04:34 UTC
Since it seems as though gnuradio-9999 was masked, can you try to produce a failed depcalc after first ensuring that gnuradio-9999 is unmasked?
Comment 4 Zac Medico gentoo-dev 2015-02-22 06:09:47 UTC
If you can make it fail when gnuradio-9999 is unmasked, you can also try adding --update --deep=1 to your options. It would be interesting to see if it makes any difference.

A lot has changed since then.
