hi, i just installed a new system and get thoose strange circular depencies. kdebase-meta would emerge with USE="-java -cups". So i think the problem comes from this ebuilds. # emerge -pv kdebase-meta Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: # emerge -pv kdebase-meta Actual Results: !!! Error: circular dependencies: ('ebuild', '/', 'app-misc/hal-info-20070618', 'merge') depends on ('ebuild', '/', 'sys-apps/hal-0.5.9-r1', 'merge') (hard) ('ebuild', '/', 'media-gfx/graphviz-2.12', 'merge') depends on ('ebuild', '/', 'dev-lang/swig-1.3.31', 'merge') (hard) ('ebuild', '/', 'dev-java/sun-jdk-1.5.0.12', 'merge') depends on ('ebuild', '/', 'media-libs/alsa-lib-1.0.14a-r1', 'merge') (medium) ('ebuild', '/', 'media-libs/alsa-lib-1.0.14a-r1', 'merge') depends on ('ebuild', '/', 'app-doc/doxygen-1.5.2', 'merge') (hard) ('ebuild', '/', 'x11-libs/qt-3.3.8-r4', 'merge') depends on ('ebuild', '/', 'net-print/cups-1.2.10-r1', 'merge') (hard) ('ebuild', '/', 'net-fs/samba-3.0.24-r3', 'merge') depends on ('ebuild', '/', 'net-print/cups-1.2.10-r1', 'merge') (hard) ('ebuild', '/', 'virtual/ghostscript-0', 'merge') depends on ('ebuild', '/', 'app-text/ghostscript-gpl-8.54', 'merge') (medium) ('ebuild', '/', 'sys-apps/dbus-1.0.2-r2', 'merge') depends on ('ebuild', '/', 'app-doc/doxygen-1.5.2', 'merge') (hard) ('ebuild', '/', 'sys-apps/hal-0.5.9-r1', 'merge') depends on ('ebuild', '/', 'app-doc/doxygen-1.5.2', 'merge') (hard) ('ebuild', '/', 'dev-libs/dbus-glib-0.73', 'merge') (hard) ('ebuild', '/', 'app-misc/hal-info-20070618', 'merge') (medium-soft) ('ebuild', '/', 'dev-libs/dbus-glib-0.73', 'merge') depends on ('ebuild', '/', 'sys-apps/dbus-1.0.2-r2', 'merge') (hard) ('ebuild', '/', 'app-doc/doxygen-1.5.2', 'merge') (hard) ('ebuild', '/', 'app-text/ghostscript-gpl-8.54', 'merge') depends on ('ebuild', '/', 'net-print/cups-1.2.10-r1', 'merge') (hard) ('ebuild', '/', 'virtual/jdk-1.5.0', 'merge') depends on ('ebuild', '/', 'dev-java/sun-jdk-1.5.0.12', 'merge') (medium) ('ebuild', '/', 'dev-lang/swig-1.3.31', 'merge') depends on ('ebuild', '/', 'dev-java/sun-jdk-1.5.0.12', 'merge') (hard) ('ebuild', '/', 'virtual/jdk-1.5.0', 'merge') (hard) ('ebuild', '/', 'app-doc/doxygen-1.5.2', 'merge') depends on ('ebuild', '/', 'app-text/ghostscript-gpl-8.54', 'merge') (hard) ('ebuild', '/', 'media-gfx/graphviz-2.12', 'merge') (hard) ('ebuild', '/', 'virtual/ghostscript-0', 'merge') (hard) ('ebuild', '/', 'x11-libs/qt-3.3.8-r4', 'merge') (hard) ('ebuild', '/', 'net-print/cups-1.2.10-r1', 'merge') depends on ('ebuild', '/', 'sys-apps/dbus-1.0.2-r2', 'merge') (hard) ('ebuild', '/', 'app-text/ghostscript-gpl-8.54', 'merge') (medium-soft) ('ebuild', '/', 'net-fs/samba-3.0.24-r3', 'merge') (medium-soft) ('ebuild', '/', 'virtual/ghostscript-0', 'merge') (medium-soft) Expected Results: Should emerge kdebase-meta without circular depencies #
