Not true at all. |

With the right USE flags, baselayout depends on coreutils, which |
| 12 |
depends on autoconf, which depends on perl. |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
baselayout also depends on portage, which depends on python, which |
| 15 |
with USE=ssl depends on openssl. |

Maybe the other server has already has the up-to-date dependancies, or |
| 21 |
hasn't been sync'd recently? What happens if you run "emerge -vp |
| 22 |
python" on the other server? Is it also a ~x86 system? It might help |
| 23 |
to see the emerge --info output of both systems. |

Why not?? The ebuild has this for DEPEND: |
| 30 |
|
| 31 |
DEPEND="${RDEPEND} |
| 32 |
sys-apps/diffutils |
| 33 |
>=dev-lang/perl-5 |
| 34 |
test? ( sys-devel/bc )" |
| 35 |
|
| 36 |
Anyway, from looking at the portage ChangeLog and searching bugzie |
| 37 |
[1], it looks like there are some changes to the handling of --deep in |
| 38 |
an attempt to resolve some circular dependancy and upgrade/downgrade |
| 39 |
loop issues. |
