Description j.habenicht 2007-05-22 10:51:07 UTC 
Hello,

I wanted to do a clean install of koma-script. My system is configured for stable releases (ACCEPT_KEYWORDS=x86). An emerge koma-script showed:

 ~ # emerge -pv --nospinner dev-tex/koma-script

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies  ..... ..... ........ done!
[ebuild  N    ] net-libs/libwww-5.4.0-r7  USE="ssl -mysql" 0 kB
[ebuild  N    ] app-text/tetex-3.0_p1-r3  USE="X -Xaw3d -doc -lesstif -motif -neXt -tk" 0 kB
[ebuild  N    ] dev-tex/koma-script-20040616  3,474 kB
[blocks B     ] dev-tex/koma-script (is blocking app-text/tetex-3.0_p1-r3)
[blocks B     ] >=app-text/tetex-3.0 (is blocking dev-tex/koma-script-20040616)

Total: 3 packages (3 new, 2 blocks), Size of downloads: 3,474 kB

Tried a workaround with a newer version of koma:

 ~ # echo -e "dev-tex/koma-script\t~x86" >> /etc/portage/package.keywords
 ~ # emerge -pv --nospinner dev-tex/koma-script

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies  ..... ..... ........ done!
[ebuild  N    ] net-libs/libwww-5.4.0-r7  USE="ssl -mysql" 0 kB
[ebuild  N    ] app-text/tetex-3.0_p1-r3  USE="X doc -Xaw3d -lesstif -motif -neXt -tk" 0 kB
[ebuild  N    ] dev-tex/koma-script-20051125  3,544 kB
[blocks B     ] dev-tex/koma-script (is blocking app-text/tetex-3.0_p1-r3)
[blocks B     ] >=app-text/tetex-3.0 (is blocking dev-tex/koma-script-20051125)

Total: 3 packages (3 new, 2 blocks), Size of downloads: 3,544 kB

So the "new" version of koma doesn't play with >=tetex-3.0

Tried with downgrading tetex:
 ~ # echo -e ">=app-text/tetex-3" >> /etc/portage/package.mask
 ~ # emerge -pv --nospinner dev-tex/koma-script

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies  ..... ..... ........ done!
[ebuild  N    ] net-libs/libwww-5.4.0-r7  USE="ssl -mysql" 0 kB
[ebuild  N    ] app-text/tetex-2.0.2-r9  USE="X doc -tk" 0 kB
[ebuild  N    ] dev-tex/koma-script-20051125  3,544 kB

Total: 3 packages (3 new), Size of downloads: 3,544 kB

This workaround does!


I think the unwary user might get trapped by this. 
Do you think as well this is an error?


regards
Jörg


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. clean stable system (x86)
2. install koma-script




Expected Results:  
Is it possible to install a version of koma-script with tetex-3.0 ?
Personally I dont depend on tetex-3 but other users might get annoyed by stable releases blocking other stable releases.

  koma-script-20040616.ebuild, koma-script-20040824.ebuild,
  koma-script-20051125.ebuild:
  koma-script is provided by tetex-3 so block >=app-text/tetex-3.0
