Bug 551862 – dev-lang/perl: version bump to 5.22

• Product: Gentoo/Alt
• Status: RESOLVED OBSOLETE

[Description yegle 2015-06-12 05:47:37 UTC]

Trying to rebuild everything after replacing gcc-apple with clang but failed in calculating dependency. Looks like perl-5.22 should be added to prefix tree.

$ emerge -e @system

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies... done!

emerge: there are no ebuilds to satisfy "=dev-lang/perl-5.22*".
(dependency required by "virtual/perl-ExtUtils-MakeMaker-7.40.100_rc::gentoo_prefix" [ebuild])
(dependency required by "dev-perl/Text-Unidecode-1.230.0::gentoo_prefix" [ebuild])
(dependency required by "sys-apps/texinfo-5.2::gentoo_prefix" [ebuild])
(dependency required by "sys-apps/groff-1.22.3::gentoo_prefix" [ebuild])
(dependency required by "sys-apps/man-1.6g::gentoo_prefix" [ebuild])
(dependency required by "virtual/man-0-r1::gentoo_prefix" [ebuild])
(dependency required by "@system" [argument])

Reproducible: Always

Is this still happening?  I see perl-5.22.0 being available.

The problem has been solved by removing dependency on perl-5.22 from virtual/perl-ExtUtils-MakeMaker.
