1 This ebuild is from the java-overlay. Is it just a bad ebuild or can
2 I fix this? I tried disabling the nsplugin USE flag with the same
3 result.

5 # emerge icedtea6
6 Calculating dependencies... done!
7 [ebuild N ] dev-java/icedtea6-1.3.1-r2 USE="nsplugin -cacao
8 -debug -doc -examples -javascript -pulseaudio -shark -zero"
9 * Error: circular dependencies:
10 ('ebuild', '/', 'dev-java/icedtea6-1.3.1-r2', 'merge') depends on
11 ('ebuild', '/', 'dev-java/icedtea6-1.3.1-r2', 'merge') (hard)
12 * Note that circular dependencies can often be avoided by temporarily
13 * disabling USE flags that trigger optional dependencies.
