1 Hi.
2
3 How can one avoid cyclic dependencies in custom
4 ebuilds?
5
6 eg.
7 soft1.ebuild DEPENDs on soft2
8 but
9 soft2.ebuild also DEPENDs on soft1
10 (both packages are required; none of the two works
11 alone so it wouldn't make sense to install just one)
12
13 Is there a function that can be used to check whether
14 a certain package+version has already been emerged?
