When emerging gkrellmwireless, it gets installed from x11-plugins, where it is located, but if I do emerge gkrellmwireless -Cp, it wants to remove: net- wireles/gkrellmwireless , which doesn't exist. I suspect the gkrellm-plugins ebuild to cause this, but I'm not sure. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge gkrellmwireless -p 2. emerge gkrellmwireless 3. emerge gkrellmwireless -Cp 4. emerge gkrellmwireless -C Actual Results: Watch the errors when unemerging. Expected Results: unemerged gkrellmwireless from x11-plugins instead of net-wireless. I hope somebody else that me is able to reproduce this, so it can get fixed, since it is trivial, but still VERY annoying.
This is wierd: # qpkg -q net-wireless/gkrellmwireless net-wireless/gkrellmwireless-2.0.2 * DEPENDED ON BY: x11-plugins/gkrellm-plugins-1.2.11-r1 The wierd thing is, then I look in the ebuild for gkrellm-plugins, it points to x11-plugins/gkrellmwireless and not net-wireless/gkrellmwireless . I really have no idea about why portage wants it to be in there.
seems like it's a portage bug package moved
A temporary fix it to symlink /usr/portage/net-wireless/gkrellmwireless to /usr/portage/x11-plugins/gkrellmwireless . That makes portage behave correct, but it is not useable as a permanent fix.
In what category is it in /var/db/pkg and /var/cache/edb/dep ?
x11-plugins
is this still an issue ?
