After emerging courier-authlib-0.61.0, portage will warn me: Use emerge @preserved-rebuild to rebuild packages using these libraries But for some reason, courier-authlib inserts itself in that particular set. Thus, a circular reference and portage complains again, like the above. Funnily, once I'm done emerging that set, emerge will say: preserved-rebuild is an empty set. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Emerge courier-authlib-0.61.0 2. Emerge @preserved-rebuild 3. Portage will complain 4. Emerge @preserved-rebuild again, but emerge will say: preserved-rebuild is an empty set. Expected Results: Courier-authlib should not insert itself in @preserved-rebuild set.
Please post your `emerge --info' and paste the exact output (all of it) of the command `emerge @preserved-rebuild' as well.
