Description Kalin KOZHUHAROV 2018-02-21 11:26:03 UTC
I recently run into this situation on a newish system:

````
# emerge wireshark -avtq

[ebuild  N     ] net-analyzer/wireshark-2.4.3-r1:0/2.4.3::gentoo  USE="capinfos caps captype dftest dumpcap editcap filecaps geoip libssh lz4 mergecap netlink nghttp2 pcap portaudio randpkt randpktdump reordercap sharkd smi spandsp sshdump ssl text2pcap tfshark tshark udpdump zlib -adns -androiddump -ciscodump -doc -doc-pdf -gtk -kerberos -libxml2 -lua -qt5 -sbc (-selinux) -snappy" CPU_FLAGS_X86="sse4_2" 0 KiB

Total: 5 packages (5 new), Size of downloads: 0 KiB

 * Error: circular dependencies:

(dev-util/cmake-3.9.6:0/0::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge) depends on
 (app-arch/libarchive-3.3.1:0/13::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge) (buildtime_slot_op)
  (app-arch/lz4-1.8.0:0/r131::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge) (buildtime_slot_op)
   (dev-util/cmake-3.9.6:0/0::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge) (buildtime)

It might be possible to break this cycle
by applying the following change:
- app-arch/libarchive-3.3.1 (Change USE: -lz4)

Note that this change can be reverted, once the package has been installed.
````

It can be sidestepped with `USE="-lz4 -lzo" emerge libarchive -avtq; emerge wireshark -avtq`
Comment 1 Dmitry 2020-06-28 14:35:55 UTC
cmake and libarchive has circular build-time dependency on new system with zstd or lz4 use enabled (need disable this flags for libarchive when building cmake first time).
cmake provides libarchive dependency in tarball, so i think, we need add system-libs use flag to prevent dependency problems
