Subject: [gentoo-user] "Error: circular dependencies"
Date: Fri, 23 Jan 2009 09:59:41 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <49bf44f10901230959pfe4908fo1051b232afb6d11e@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

This ebuild is from the java-overlay.  Is it just a bad ebuild or can
I fix this?  I tried disabling the nsplugin USE flag with the same
result.

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