Bug 787947 – dev-lang/go depends on itself

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED NEEDINFO

[Description Rick Jenkins 2021-05-03 18:04:07 UTC]

dev-lang/go will not merge because it depends on itself:

 * Error: circular dependencies:

[Comment 1 Sam James 2021-05-03 18:14:29 UTC]

Not sure what's happening here, as we have go-bootstrap..

>BDEPEND="|| (
>		dev-lang/go
>		dev-lang/go-bootstrap )"

Please provide the full emerge output along with the command used. You may need to run it *again* with --debug and attach the full output too.

Have you done something weird like mask the go-bootstrap package? What does emerge -av1 dev-lang/go-bootstrap say?

(It is possible we will need a higher bootstrap in future for bug 779859, but that's not strictly relevant heee).

[Comment 2 Rick Jenkins 2021-05-03 18:40:03 UTC]

This occurred on my weekly update, which promptly died, so there is no more "emerge-output" available. Strangely, the emerge list for a world update did not include go-bootstrap, although dev-lang/go was flagged as new. A manual merge of go-bootstrap succeeds, and allows a manual emerge of dev-lang/go.

Right, but I mean, you could've run the command manually again. Anyway, definitely weird that it succeeded manually, as it implies it wasn't masked or anything.

[Comment 4 Rick Jenkins 2021-05-03 18:54:34 UTC]

my first reaction was to run the command manually, and it failed again. The key was your information about the need for go-bootstrap, which somehow was not being invoked automatically.

Yeah. Definitely a shame we couldn't get to see why it wasn't recognising it needed -bootstrap. But all working now at least :)

My apologies for collecting insufficient information.

No worries at all, it's one of those things I wish we could debug but that's not me being annoyed at you or anything, I just wonder how it happened. These things happen and it's not always obvious what information is needed at the time.

Chill! :)
