Seems to me like bug in python-updater. Why does it want to |
| 20 |
update cracklib, when it was compiled with "-python" use-flag? |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
sys-libs/cracklib-2.8.19 USE="nls zlib -build -python -static-libs" |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
And I found the same with bind on different system: |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
net-dns/bind-9.9.4_p2 USE="berkdb dlz ipv6 ssl -caps -doc -filter-aaaa |
| 27 |
-fixed-rrset -geoip -gost -gssapi -idn -ldap -mysql -odbc -postgres |
| 28 |
-python -rpz -rrl -sdb-ldap (-selinux) -static-libs -threads -urandom -xml" |
| 29 |
|
| 30 |
If I understand it correctly, then "-python" means package is |
| 31 |
compiled *without* python-support. So a) it should not depend |
| 32 |
on python at all and b) recompilation does not change anything... |
