Description Guido Winkelmann 2014-03-14 11:13:23 UTC

kdevelop-python-1.5.2 is not compatible with kdevplatform-1.6, but the ebuild does not enforce that.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Unmask kdevelop-4.6, kdevplatform-1.6
2. emerge -uvDN world
3. emerge kdevelop-python
4. Start kdevelop
Actual Results:  
No python support in KDevelop

Expected Results:  
Emerge should show a conflict between kdevplatform-1.6 and kdevelop-python-1.5.2

Workaround: Unmask kdevelop-python-1.6

These sorts of problems sometimes happen when you mix stable and testing, which is why in general it's unsupported. Unfortunately there's not much we can do about it - it's not feasible to test every version with every other version and maintain various dependency restrictions.
