I have no idea how to fix this. The string of dependencies in perl->openssl direction is enormous. If someone figures out how to fix this, I'd be very interested in the procedure they used to debug it.
i dont know why the 0.9.6 ones have perl in DEPEND ... afaict, it's not used 0.9.7 uses perl to call what looks like a sh script during src_install(), so what's up with that, i have no idea
This occured using: stage1-x86-20030910.tar.bz2
I think openssl depends on it while building documentation.
I noticed that perl is included in many of the experimental stage1 tarballs. This would also fix it, but as long as the releases are still around, it's an issue. Is perl going to be included in stage1 going forward?
I also see this dependency circle: autoconf -> openssl -> perl -> autoconf There are builds in between, one of which is python, which shows up as: [ebuild N ] dev-lang/python-2.3.3 +ncurses +gdbm -ssl +readline +tcltk +berkdb -bootstrap +ipv6 -build -ucs2 -doc Seems to be the only one in the list with IUSE="ssl" I think perl needs to be built with USE="-ssl" in bootstrap at this point.
autoconf depends directly on perl openssl depends directly on perl autoconf does not depend directly on ssl perl does not depend directly on ssl or autoconf so can someone narrow down the loop ?
I was able to get perl to emerge with: USE="-ssl -X -java" emerge perl
OpenSSL needs perl to run its Configure script. I think this bug should be reassigned to either base-system or python herd.
Reassigning.
(After posting this to the wrong bug, let me see if I can do this right :) ) I could be wrong, but I don't believe emerge -ep perl is giving you what you think it should. It is showing everything that is required to emerge perl based on your USE flags (or lack thereof), but it is also showing you everything that is required to emerge those deps, and the deps of those deps, and the deps of the deps of the deps... Technically speaking, perl only needs a few things to be emerged (compiler, patching tools, portage of a certaing minimum vintage, and if you have it enabled, one of the DBs - gdbm, berkdb, etc.). It certainly doesn't require openssl to be installed - that is a dep elsewhere in your list, probably an optional dep at that.
I'm not using the emerge -ep perl to prove the bug exists. I did a stage 1 build and it broke on the perl emerge because of this circular dependency. The bug is merely illustrated (I hope) with the emerge -ep perl. If you would like to prove this bug exists, simply do a stage 1 build.
Perl depends on a minimum version of portage (for characteristics of dependancies, not for compilation). Portage depends on python. Python has an optional depend on openssl. Not much we can do about it on the perl side - base system folks have any thoughts (suggest USE="-ssl" for this step...?)
This is caused by an evil combination of USE="java ssl". Perl needs berkeley db. If USE="java" is set, berkeley db needs a jdk, normally blackdown. This needs java-config, which needs python. If USE="ssl" is set, python needs openssl, which needs autoconf, which needs perl.
So... java-config should not require python to be re-built... Python is already merged... Is java-config requiring a newer version of python via a depend statement? I haven't research any of this, but it seems that the python should be coming from another source. USE_ORDER="defaults" emerge -dep system | grep -n5 some_package Will help you work things out easier. The USE_ORDER just eliminates your personal USE settings temporarily by only reading the default config. -d prints out lots of info... You're interested in 'parent' and 'candidates' Might wanna just dump everything to a file and peruse it later.
Does the version of python in the stages have an ebuild in the tree still? If it's missing, that'd be the reason python gets pulled in.

Can we just remove the automake dep in sys-apps/coreutils and instead create a patch to the package which has the same effect?
actually... n/m i was being stupid with that suggestion... openssl has a direct perl dep, so we need to figure out a way to remove the ssl dep from perl's emerge... what if we put perl in the bootstrap?

2 days ago i tried to make a stage 1 new-installation with the 20040218 tarball. and there was an error during bootstrap: openssl wasn't able to build because perl 5 wasn't installed. today i tried to emerge openssl and it was successful. (emerge openssl) then i startet the bootstrap again and it was successful, too.
Firstly, this has been an open bug now for almost 3 months. I already suggested that perl be placed in stage1. Perhaps, this isn't acceptable because no one has done anything about it, and this bug still persists. Here is another suggestion. Add this procedure to bootstrap: USE="-ssl -berkdb -gdbm" emerge perl This will build perl properly with minimal additional packages. Now, you have to get perl to rebuild later when other libraries are installed. I'm not sure of the best way to do that.

Is this bug going to affect 2004.1? It would be a shame if all users installing 2004.1 from stage1 get stuck because of this problem.
hmm dev-lang/python-2.3.3 has a check for 'USE=build' for the ssl dep... so it must be somewhere else other than python that is bringing it in during bootstrap.
just doing an emerge -O libperl perl and then bootstrapping will do the job (at least it worked for me :-)
Created attachment 29525 [details] perl-5.8.3.ebuild.diff Here are three patches to add perl to stage1. I think I did it correctly, but please let me know if I did not. What does everyone think of this solution? In addition to being in stage1, I'd like to see perl be included on the Gentoo LiveCD.
Created attachment 29526 [details] libperl-5.8.3.ebuild.diff
Created attachment 29527 [details] packages.build.diff
I think the problem is with dev-lang/python I believe the 'build?' in DEPEND= should be 'bootstrap?'
not knowing much about stage building, what is the difference between bootstrap and build? according to the use.desc, it says that "build" is used in the first half of bootstrapping, does that include python or not? and why has this changed since its been working for python for a long time now.

As of today, 5 months after opening the bug, this critical bug is still prevelant. A recent stage1 install broke on openssl, which requires perl to build, which requires openssl. Some kind of remedy is needed here; several have been proposed.
A few days ago, I emerged system and it was fine. I was having some problems, so I decided to try starting from scratch. Both times I used stage2 for the pentium4. It could be I had different USE flags that time, I can't remember. Anyway, I emerge'd and at OpenSSL, it came up with some message about needing Perl 5. I did emerge perl and that worked fine. Then I did emerge system again and that worked fine (or at least where I'm up to now, a few packages after OpenSSL). My make.conf: CFLAGS="-O3 -march=pentium4 -fomit-frame-pointer" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CXXFLAGS="${CFLAGS}" MAKEOPTS="-j3" USE="-gnome alsa bidi bindist directfb emacs fbcon ftp icc java jikes mozilla spell tidy truetype usb wxwindows"
*** Bug 62425 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
This summer I did an installation on my P4 system, and I recall no problems there. If there was a problem, it was solved by emerging perl like most other people have. However, today I was working on installing on an old Alphaserver for my school and, lo and behold, when I reached the emerge system step I was up and running happily. Along comes the step when emerge system emerges autoconf and I get the perl-not-found error. So I try the logical step of emerging perl, and that doesn't work because perl requires autoconf somehow. So I do all of this poking around and decide to try USE="-java -ssl -berkdb -gdbm" emerge system. The emerge is currently running. However, this did remove the cyclic dependency, it would seem. Here's some grits: stage1-alpha-20040730 bootstrap ran fine emerge system failed on autoconf needing perl emerge --nodeps perl failed for some problem within perl removed ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~alpha" from make.conf emerge --nodeps perl still fails emerge libtool USE="-java -ssl -berkdb -gdbm" emerge system I'll let you all know what the results of the emerge are when I find out. The bug is still around, but it seems as though adding the "-java -ssl -berkdb -gdbm" at least removes the cyclic dependency. I don't know how to get that into the system, but it would be nice if that could be added to the defaults for a later stage1-alpha-* tarball, if not to everyone else's tarball if they still have the same problem also. I'm planning to reinstall Gentoo onto my laptop as soon as I get this Alphaserver out of my dorm room. I'll check for the problem there too.
Addition...rather than the first "emerge --nodeps perl" should read "emerge --nodeps libperl perl" ... libperl emerged fine, the problem in that step was in perl somewhere.
As promised, my update is that USE="-java -ssl -berkdb -gdbm" emerge system is running like a champ. perl and autoconf have both been emerged wonderfully. It appears to me as though this is a valid work-around at this point. Anyone concur? --Greg
I run into this error today with stage1-x86-2004.3.tar.bz2 ... as a workaround I just issue 'emerge system' again and it works. this error is preventing to deploy the operating system base !! ... I hope you can fixed for the next release. jic my emerge info: Portage 2.0.51-r3 (default-linux/x86/2004.3, gcc-3.3.4, glibc-2.3.4.20040808-r1, 2.6.9-gentoo-r1 i686) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.9-gentoo-r1 i686 Intel(R) Xeon(TM) CPU 2.80GHz Gentoo Base System version 1.4.16 Autoconf: Automake: Binutils: sys-devel/binutils-2.15.90.0.1.1-r3 Headers: sys-kernel/linux-headers-2.4.21-r1 Libtools: ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CFLAGS="-O3 -march=pentium4 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" COMPILER="" CXXFLAGS="-O3 -march=pentium4 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer" FEATURES="autoaddcvs autoconfig ccache distlocks sandbox sfperms" USE="X apache2 apm arts avi berkdb bitmap-fonts crypt cups dga dio dvd encode f77 foomaticdb fortran ftp gdbm gif gnome gpm gtk gtk2 imap imlib java jikes jpeg kerberos ldap libg++ libwww mad mikmod mmx motif mpeg mysql ncurses nis nls oggvorbis opengl oss pam pdflib png postgres python quicktime readline samba sdl slp spell sse ssl svga tcpd truetype unicode x86 xml2 xmms xv zlib"
I parsed the "emerge -pv --debug system" output during a stage1 install and found the following cycling dependency (-> means "needs"): perl -> db -> sun-jdk (virtual/jdk) -> java-config -> python -> openssl -> perl. The simpliest way for me here was to add the following line to /etc/portage/package.use: "sys-libs/db -java" ... to break the cycle at sys-libs/db (if you don't want to disable java at all). After this "emerge -pv system" will install perl before openssl. Maybe emerge could print a warning message when a cycling dependency is found to be able to solve the problem before a packet merge fails during "emerge system" or simple packet merges (waiting for a "emerge system" to fail and parsing "emerge -pv --debug system" by hand is really ugly). emerge info USE flags: USE="3dnow X Xaw3d aalib acl alsa apm arts avi berkdb bitmap-fonts cjk crypt cups dga directfb doc emacs encode f77 fbcon foomaticdb fortran gdbm gif gpm gtk gtk2 imlib ipv6 jpeg kde kerberos ldap libg++ libwww mad mikmod mmx motif mpeg nas ncurses nls nptl nptlonly oggvorbis opengl oss pam pdflib perl pic png python qt quicktime readline sdl skey slang slp spell ssl svga tcltk tcpd tetex tiff truetype unicode usb x86 xinerama xml2 xmms xv zlib linguas_de"

rac removed DEPEND=">=portage-2.0.*" from perl and libperl ebuilds. The circular dependency is no more.
there's still the problem of db/java ... but i dont know if that's a diff bug or what
That's a different bug. Perl depended on a particular version of portage in order to have access to the PDEPEND variable so that we could apply a post emerge ebuild for Safe, which had a security bug. Removing that dep breaks this particular circle. Closing out for now.
I'm sorry to do this; go ahead an yell at me if I'm wrong... I'm reopening this bug because: The dependency on portage in DEPEND is definitely still there for both libperl and perl. Therefore, the circular dependency is still in full affect. There is no mention in the ChangeLog of this dependency being removed or put back since rac originally added it in July 2003. What's going on with this bug?
Same prob. here last week. I decribet it at http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=80741 a few weeks ago.
I have been running over the 2005.0 install profile and have not had a problem, but I include at least the USE="-java -ssl" and have not run into this problem since 2005.0 has come out. That same set of USE flags has worked for me in 2004.3 and I recently put 2005.0 on my latest machine and did not encounter the ciruclar dependcy. Are you sure that your portage tree is up to date and that you are using the latest version of the Gentoo profile? It is, of course, most likely that I have not had this problem since including the -ssl flag in my USE because of this bug relying on openssl, but if you want to get past this stage you can use that work around. If you still encounter the problem, however, then it makes sense that this bug be reopened. But my status is that I haven't seen it in quite some time.

I am not seeing the loop here. The deps for both libperl and perl include groff and some db/gdbm options - nothing about ssl, openssl, portage, etc. I've checked groff, db, and gdbm, and none of them grep ssl or portage. How is perl a culprit at this point? (used to be, not denying that, just saying I don't see how it is anymore).

Michael, see comment #41 for a decent description of the circle. Based on that, feel free to change the summary of the bug to something more appropriate. Regardless, there's still a circular dependency that breaks most Stage 1 installs (ssl and java are common use flags).

This bug prevents me from building a stage3 with catalyst on ppc. This is the issue with ssl-USE-flag set. When I take it out, the dependency loop will be resolved. How can I build a stage3 with ssl enabled?

(In reply to comment #63) > emerge perl first. it is workaround stage3 (say release) building with catalyst is an automated process. Everything that breaks must be fixed in the portage-tree. May it be a solution to put openssl into PDEPEND of perl if the ssl-USE-flag is enabled?
(In reply to comment #64) > May it be a solution to put openssl into PDEPEND of perl if the ssl-USE-flag is > enabled? While I'm not opposed enough to stonewall this in any sense of the word, its really an abuse of PDEPEND - PDEPEND is supposed to be post depends that complete the installation of a package. The portage team graciously added this at my request years ago so we could work around issues with needing to force certain packages to be installed after another package. bah. that said, if it works, i'm game :)

This is still open?? I thought that the build flag addition to dev-lang/perl got us past the perl portion of this loop. If that's so, please let me know so I can remove perl from the cc list here. If not, also let me know :) Thanks, Mike
Since I reopened ths bug in February of 2005, there has been no posting to say that it was taken care of. At that time, I was able to reproduce the problem reliably, as were many others. However, I am very pleased to report that during a recent Stage 1 install, I had no problems with perl and/or perl dependencies. I think this bug may actually be licked. Can I suggest that we keep it open to get a few more reports that the problem is gone? This bug is 23 months old and was fixed once only to reappear again, so I recommend a solid report before closing the bug.
I don't believe my current stage 1 difficulty is related to this particular bug. While doing "emerge -e system" the process stopped at dev-perl/Locale-gettext-1.03 with the following error messages: Can't locate ExtUtils MakeMaker.pm in @INC (@INC contains /etc/perl /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.6/i386-linux /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.6 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.6/i386-linux /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.6 /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.6/i386-linux /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.6 /usr/local/lib/site_perl .) at Makefile.PL Line 1.

Sorry, it didnt copy and paste into my word processor before I let it all go. Emerging Make didnt solve the problem. However, emerging Perl did solve the problem. After emerging Perl, the system continued its build properly (that is, until it arrived at autoconf which required automake - which I emerged and went about my business.) Another little glitch that Ive encountered in all of this is that emerge -e system --resume is giving me the message that it seems there is nothing left to resume, when, in fact, only about 10% of the system is complete. Just a minor little irritation in terms of excess repeat time in emerging the system. I dont understand it yet, but, Im just a truck driver whom never finished high school. If you need more info (such as my make.conf file) let me know. I do put more into it than Im qualified to use, but, I want a few things in place for that occasion when I have time to learn more.

(In reply to comment #70) > Can't locate ExtUtils MakeMaker.pm in @INC (@INC contains /etc/perl That's definitely fodder for a different bug. Sounds like the perl in use was either a minimal(long story, different bug) or a "build" version (stripped of everything but the interpreter) for doing the bootstraps, and not the actual perl install. EU::MM is a core module - if you have a normal (none-minimal or build version) of it installed, you have at least that module.
It's back! In full effect!
Cory, how so? We now pull perl into the stage1 tarball, so it is *always* available (though minimally) so openssl couldn't possibly be failing in trying to find perl. Any and all of these other reports of failings in perl are completely unrelated to *this* bug specifically.

Well, this has been somewhat "fixed" since we started with the extremely minimal perl with USE="build" in our stage1 tarball. Since all that openssh really needs is the "perl" executable, this resolves the problem. We have not gotten a response from Cory when he said that the circular dependency is back, but I'm not sure how. Cory, could you please explain under what circumstances you're getting this again? Considering that we have perl in the stage1 tarball, you shouldn't *ever* hit this bug again.
On 12/07/2005 this bug was still a problem. However, as you have stated, perl is now part of stage1 (hurrah!) This perfectly fixes the problem in a beautiful way, because perl is a great tool for install scripts (I happen to use it myself). As of 05/01/2006, I have built from stage1 with no problems. Thank you for making this possible. I'll wait a couple days, and if you don't mind, I'd like to do the honors of closing this bug :)
I'd also like to mention that I noticed perl is now part of the LiveCD as I suggested in Comment 27 on 04/17/2004. Again, this is a great change. Please keep these changes in place and let This Bug be a reference as to why you shouldn't remove it!
As discussed, I am closing the bug because it has been solved.
