1 Hello,
2
3 After a sync, One of the new packages called for install was
4 dev-java/jflex
5
6 equery depends came back empty
7 and it's not in the world file.
8
9 strangely, why is my system asking for this package to be installed?
10
11 It is related to maven-bin but that's not showing up on the dep. tree.
12 I do have dev-java/maven-bin installed.
13
14 jflex does not show up in maven-bin-3.3.3-r1.ebuild
15
16 I guess I need enlightenment? a bug?
17
18
19 So now I installed it anyway, and guess what, a dependency now shows up::
20 dev-java/javacup
21
22 and 'equery depends javacup' yeilds::
23 dev-java/jflex-1.6.1
24
25 A circular! yippie. So how do I post this bug? Can somebody confirm it?
26 just weird.....
