I am getting confused with 'perl-core/Version-Requirements' which emerge -- depclean wants to unmerge, eix does not show as installed and emerge -C is happy to uninstall ...
Why is this?
==========================================================
# emerge --depclean -a
Calculating dependencies... done!
>>> Calculating removal order...
>>> These are the packages that would be unmerged:
virtual/perl-Version-Requirements
selected: 0.101.20-r2
protected: none
omitted: none
perl-core/Version-Requirements
selected: 0.101.20
protected: none
omitted: none
==========================================================
==========================================================
# emerge -C -p -v perl-core/Version-Requirements
* This action can remove important packages! In order to be safer, use
* `emerge -pv --depclean <atom>` to check for reverse dependencies before
* removing packages.
>>> These are the packages that would be unmerged:
perl-core/Version-Requirements
selected: 0.101.20
protected: none
omitted: none
All selected packages: perl-core/Version-Requirements-0.101.20
==========================================================
but then eix has a different opinion:
==========================================================
$ eix -l virtual/perl-Version-Requirements
* virtual/perl-Version-Requirements
Available versions:
0.101.20-r2
~ 0.101.21
Description: Virtual for Version-Requirements
$ eix -l perl-core/Version-Requirements
* perl-core/Version-Requirements
Available versions:
0.101.20
~ 0.101.21
Homepage: http://search.cpan.org/dist/Version-Requirements/
Description: A set of version requirements for a CPAN dist
==========================================================
Any ideas?
