Description Simon Stapleton 2004-11-10 13:25:06 UTC
I already have apache installed on my box, went to install subversion and discover that apache blocks it.

unmerge apache, emerge subversion, emerge apache, all is well.


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge apache.
2. emerge subversion
3. <emerge complains that apache is blocking>
4. emerge unmerge apache
5. emerge subversion
6. emerge apache
7. All is well.
Actual Results:  
As described

Expected Results:  
Either subversion should unmerge and re-emerge apache, or do something sane.  The error is 
practically unreadable.  I only tried the unmerge-emerge-emerge because I need subversion more than 
I need apache.

did you check your USE flags? subversion has a apache2 flag which isn't set by default, and apache2 will come up as a blocker if it's not set explicitly (global USE in make.conf or local USE in /etc/portage/packages.use)

Check that first using emerge -pv subversion

Remi has it right
