cycle dependency openldap/cyrus-sasl Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. install gentoo 11.0 2. emerge <anything, depending on ldap or sasl> 3. wait until it appoaches ldap or sasl 4. enjjoy Actual Results: Unability to install anything that`s really needed Expected Results: suppose, that emerge, encountering the cycle dependency within one command, should resolve it itself
Currently, you need to manually break the cycle: emerge openldap w/o sasl support, then emerge sasl and emerge openldap again. Bug 175808 tracks the feature request in portage. NB: Your problem description is not as useful as it could be. Be sure to include actual emerge output next time. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 175808 ***
