Description cazzantonio 2005-06-07 02:45:41 UTC
libgnomeprint-2.10.0 requires libgnomecups-0.2.0... If I run emerge -vDu world
it upgrades libgnomecups and tries to emerge libgnomeprint
Sadly, net-print/gnome-cups-manager-0.28 requires
net-print/libgnomecups-0.1.14... so if I run emerge -vDu world it tries to
downgrade libgnomecups.... this in a circular error (every time i run emerge
-vDu it upgrades and then downgrades the same library)
I don't know if this is an error (i suppose it is...) but my solution was to
remove gnome-cups-manager (version 0.30 is masked but may solve the problem as well)

I run a x86 system... probably this error doesn't occurr in a ~x86 system
