Description Collins Richey 2003-10-08 17:55:43 UTC
An emerge -pU world operation dies in mid stream if any of the selected ebuilds
have masked prerequisites.  There are two problems here:
1. The emerge -pU world should complete and tell me all the ebuilds that are
candidates for upgrading, instead of just dying.
2. There needs to be an option to bypass any ebuilds that have incomplete
prerequisites.

The sample is Calculating world dependencies /
!!! all ebuilds that could satisfy "=x11-libs/wxGTK-2.4.1*" have been masked.
!!!    (dependency required by "dev-python/wxPython-2.4.1.2" [ebuild])

!!! Problem with ebuild dev-python/wxPython-2.4.1.2
!!! Possibly a DEPEND/*DEPEND problem.

!!! Depgraph creation failed.



Reproducible: Didn't try
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge -pU world
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
As above. The ebuild in question will probably get fixed, but the behavior is
still suspect.

Expected Results:  
A better way of handling this.  Until the specific ebuild in error gets fixed, I
can't successfully run emerge -pU world.
