octave-4.2.1.ebuild depends via doc USE flag on dev-texlive/texlive-genericrecommended .
*** Bug 621262 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Created attachment 475934 [details] The attached ebuild does not depend on texlive-genericrecommended but nevertheless works with the doc USE flag.

Are you sure you've upgraded texlive? texlive contains hard (!!) blockers, which currently still require manual user intervention to solve.
@Juergen Rose: If I see it right, the attached ebuild only removes the line, so this merges. But I assume, that you have still texlive installed and also have texlive-plaingeneric installed. The question is, whether octave without texlive-plaingeneric (which seems to replace texlive-genericrecommended) and the doc useflag enabled works as wanted or if texlive-plaingeneric is the new dependency. @David Seifert: It is possible to install texlive 2017 without any user interaction, if you have disabled the doc useflag in octave and remerge octave before. The upgrade uninstall some other texlive packages (at least with the packages I have installed).

You are right.
