Problem: dev-util/intltool is installed and should depend on dev-perl/XML-Parser somehow it does if i try to directly install intltool # emerge -pv intltool These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies... done! [ebuild N ] dev-perl/XML-Parser-2.34 0 kB [ebuild R ] dev-util/intltool-0.35.0 126 kB Total size of downloads: 126 kB now searching for applications which are installed and depending already on dev-util/intltool: # equery d intltool [ Searching for packages depending on intltool... ] x11-misc/shared-mime-info-0.18-r1 media-gfx/gimp-2.2.12 x11-themes/gnome-themes-extras-0.8.1 gnome-extra/libgsf-1.14.2 media-sound/audacious-1.2.2 x11-libs/gtk+-1.2.10-r12 media-plugins/audacious-plugins-1.2.2-r1 so i assume when i installed audacious or any other of the listed apps, dev-perl/XML-Parser should have been pulled in - but it hasn't (or i unmerged it maybe, i don't know). with audacious depending on intltools, dev-perl/XML-Parser should be pulled in when trying to (re)install audacious. but it isn't: # emerge -pv audacious These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies... done!

Has zero to do w/ portage.
As you might have noticed, it already depends on XML-Parser...
please read my post again - XML-Parser does __not__ get pulled in when trying to install an app which indirectly depends on it. or tell me what i'm missing here.
from audacious-1.2.2.ebuild: --snip-- DEPEND="${RDEPEND} nls? ( dev-util/intltool ) >=dev-util/pkgconfig-0.9.0" --snip-- so dev-util/intltool with its dependency dev-perl/XML-Parser has to be installed before when using nls use-flag. but it isn't. and thats a bug. # emerge -pv audacious These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies... done!

> > # emerge -pv audacious > > Without --deep, the resolver only traverses 1 level into dependencies. right, with -D it works: # emerge -pv -D audacious These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies... done! [ebuild N ] dev-perl/XML-Parser-2.34 0 kB [ebuild R ] media-sound/audacious-1.2.2 USE="nls -chardet -gnome" 0 kB -D for installing a single ebuild was new to me, i only used -D with "-uDN world" so far. thanks for the info.
it should be annotated that -D/--deep in conjunction with single ebuild install doesn't work with <portage-1.2.2 so with current stable portage it might still be considered a bug which will become obsolete as soon as portage 1.2.2 will be stable.
--deep is the only way to ensure that all dependencies are satisfied (even with the latest version of portage which is 2.1.2). This bug can be considered a duplicate of bug 47921.
