`emerge --update --deep world` chooses a version of an ebuild (here: struts-1.2) which is incompatible with another ebuild (tomcat-5.0.28), if a compatible version is installed (struts-1.1-r2). If the latest version is installed, emerge decides to downgrade to the compatible version. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge =www-servers/tomcat-5.0.28 (depends on =dev-java/struts-1.1*) 2. emerge -puD world 3. emerge -u struts 4. emerge -puD world Actual Results: 1. installs tomcat and struts-1.1-r2 2. offers update to Struts: [ebuild U ] dev-java/struts-1.2.4 [1.1-r2] 3. installs struts-1.2.4 4. offers downgrade: [ebuild UD] dev-java/struts-1.1-r2 [1.2.4] Expected Results: emerge should not offer the update to Struts, since the new version is incompatible with Tomcat. am ~ # emerge --info Portage 2.0.51.19 (default-linux/x86/2004.2, gcc-3.4.3, glibc-2.3.4.20050125-r0, 2.6.11-gentoo i686) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.11-gentoo i686 AMD Athlon(tm) Processor Gentoo Base System version 1.6.9 Python: dev-lang/python-2.3.5 [2.3.5 (#1, Feb 24 2005, 22:07:35)] dev-lang/python: 2.3.5 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.59-r6 sys-devel/automake: 1.5, 1.9.5, 1.8.5-r3, 1.6.3, 1.4_p6, 1.7.9-r1 sys-devel/binutils: 2.15.92.0.2-r4 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.10-r5 virtual/os-headers: 2.6.8.1-r2 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86 ~x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CFLAGS="-O2 -march=i686 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3.3/env /usr/kde/3.3/share/config /usr/kde/3.3/shutdown /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/lib/X11/xkb /usr/lib/mozilla/defaults/pref /usr/share/config /usr/share/texmf/dvipdfm/config/ /usr/share/texmf/dvips/config/ /usr/share/texmf/tex/generic/config/ /usr/share/texmf/tex/platex/config/ /usr/share/texmf/xdvi/ /var/qmail/control" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/terminfo /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-O2 -march=i686 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoaddcvs autoconfig ccache distlocks sandbox sfperms" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://distfiles.gentoo.org http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/distributions/gentoo" LANG="de_DE@euro" LC_ALL="de_DE@euro" MAKEOPTS="-j2" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage" SYNC="rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="x86 3dnow 3dnowex X aalib alsa apache2 apm arts avi berkdb bitmap-fonts bzip2 bzlib cdr crypt cups dba dts dv dvb dvd dvdr dvdread emboss f77 fam font-server foomaticdb gd gdbm gif gpm gtk gtk2 imagemagick imlib ipv6 java jikes jpeg junit libg++ libwww mad matroska mikmod mmx mmx2 mng motif mozilla mozsvg mp3 mpeg mysql ncurses nls nptl nptlonly nvidia offensive oggvorbis opengl oss pam pdflib perl php png python qt quicktime readline real samba scanner sdl session ssl svg svga tcpd tetex tga theora tiff truetype truetype-fonts type1-fonts usb userlocales wmf xml xml2 xmms xprint xsl xv xvid zlib" Unset: ASFLAGS, CBUILD, CTARGET, LDFLAGS
