[gentoo-user] Strangeness in dep calculation

[Roman Zilka]

Hi once again,

am I missing something or are these bugs? If bugs, do you think I
should file them through bugzilla?

# emerge -ep world
.......... shows mostly remerges, but also 6 new merges, for example
sys-devel/autogen and virtual/pam. Shouldn't there be no new merges
here? Let's re-check.


# equery d virtual/pam
 * These packages depend on virtual/pam:
net-mail/mailbase-1 (pam ? virtual/pam)
net-misc/openssh-5.8_p1-r1 (pam ? virtual/pam)
sys-apps/openrc-0.8.3-r1 (pam ? virtual/pam)
sys-apps/shadow-4.1.4.3 (pam ? virtual/pam)
sys-auth/consolekit-0.4.4 (pam ? virtual/pam)
x11-apps/xdm-1.1.10-r1 (pam ? virtual/pam)
x11-misc/xlockmore-5.31 (pam ? virtual/pam)


# emerge -pq virtual/pam
[ebuild  N    ] virtual/pam-0

# grep skype /var/lib/portage/world 
net-im/skype


# emerge -p --autounmask y skype

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies... done!
[ebuild     U ~] net-im/skype-2.2.0.35-r1 [2.1.0.81] USE="-hardened%" 

The following keyword changes are necessary to proceed:
#required by skype (argument)
>=net-im/skype-2.2.0.35-r1 ~amd64

NOTE: This --autounmask behavior can be disabled by setting
      EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS="--autounmask=n" in make.conf.


# grep KEYWORDS /usr/portage/net-im/skype/skype-2.*
/usr/portage/net-im/skype/skype-2.1.0.81.ebuild:KEYWORDS="~amd64 ~x86"
/usr/portage/net-im/skype/skype-2.2.0.25.ebuild:KEYWORDS="~amd64 ~x86"
/usr/portage/net-im/skype/skype-2.2.0.35-r1.ebuild:KEYWORDS="~amd64 ~x86"
.......... Shouldn't 'emerge -uDN world' pull in skype-2.2.0.35-r1 too,
as per the autounmask functionality?

I'm using latest stable portage for this - 2.1.10.3. ~arch is 2.1.10.4
and I haven't tried it, but its changelog doesn't suggest any changes
in relevant areas.
