Description Zac Medico gentoo-dev 2017-03-09 05:58:54 UTC
I have a test case which demonstrates that the backtracking runtime package mask can interact badly with slot operator rebuilds, and a patch that fixes the problem.
Comment 3 Zac Medico gentoo-dev 2017-05-20 18:25:03 UTC
Fixed in portage-2.3.5.
