[gentoo-user] lzma conflicting man?

[meino.cramer]

Hi,

this morning an update wants to install coreutils with
coreutils-patches, which are compressed via the lzma-tool,
which is not found on my system.

app-arch/lzma is masked.

I unmasked it and now emerge -pv reports:
Calculating dependencies... done!
[ebuild  N    ] app-arch/lzma-4.65  USE="-doc" 282 kB
[blocks B     ] app-arch/lzma ("app-arch/lzma" is blocking sys-apps/man-1.6f-r3)


How can I get out of this ?

Best regards,
mcc

Since it comes to masked packages, maybe you should precise the gentoo
arch you're using. The following may help you though:

---
$ equery belongs /usr/bin/lzma
app-arch/xz-utils-4.999.9_beta
app-arch/xz-utils-4.999.9_beta

$ equery uses xz-utils
+nls
-static-libs
+threads

$ equery depends xz-utils
[SNIP]
sys-apps/man-1.6f-r4
[SNIP]
---

My lzma binary doesn't comes from app-arch/lzma.
My system is running on a x86_64 architecture with ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~amd64"
in /etc/make.conf.

Uninstall app-arch/lzma, then install app-arch/xz-utils.
