5 I narrowed it down to
6
7 emerge perl-core/Module-Build -vp
8
9 These are the packages that would be merged, in order:
10
11 Calculating dependencies ... done!
12 [ebuild U ] perl-core/ExtUtils-ParseXS-3.20.0 [2.22.06] 0 kB
13 [ebuild R ] perl-core/Module-Build-0.380.0 0 kB
14
15 Total: 2 packages (1 upgrade, 1 reinstall), Size of downloads: 0 kB
16
17 The following keyword changes are necessary to proceed:
18 #required by virtual/perl-ExtUtils-ParseXS-3.20.0, required by
19 perl-core/Module-Build-0.380.0, required by perl-core/Module-Build
20 (argument)
21 >=perl-core/ExtUtils-ParseXS-3.20.0 ~amd64
22
23 and Module-Build-0.380.0 has >=virtual/perl-ExtUtils-ParseXS-2.22.05 in
24 DEPEND.
25
26 So yes autounmask was actually right, because I masked
27 perl-core/ExtUtils-ParseXS-3.20.0 but not the virtual-3.20.0.
28 After doing that everything is fine here.
29
30 But why was autounmask=y complaining but not autounmask=n?
31 The dependency of the virtual was missing both times so shouldn't emerge
32 spit some error out both times?
33
34 Greetings
