I'd like to give that a try but I get: |

# emerge icedtea6 |

Calculating dependencies... done! |

[ebuild N ] dev-java/icedtea6-1.3.1-r2 USE="nsplugin -cacao |
| 10 |
-debug -doc -examples -javascript -pulseaudio -shark -zero" |
| 11 |
* Error: circular dependencies: |
| 12 |
('ebuild', '/', 'dev-java/icedtea6-1.3.1-r2', 'merge') depends on |
| 13 |
('ebuild', '/', 'dev-java/icedtea6-1.3.1-r2', 'merge') (hard) |
| 14 |
* Note that circular dependencies can often be avoided by temporarily |
| 15 |
* disabling USE flags that trigger optional dependencies. |

Does anyone know how to resolve this? I tried disabling the nsplugin |
| 18 |
USE flag with the same result. |
