Happy Friday gentoo-user, I'm setting up a chroot for doing some Haskell work. This chroot is so that I can test my package against old versions of my dependencies. I thought I would be okay with putting the following in my world file:
=dev-haskell/cabal-1.16*
~dev-haskell/mtl-2.1.1
~dev-haskell/gtk-0.12.0
~dev-haskell/hunit-1.2.4.2
~dev-haskell/parsec-3.1.3
=dev-lang/ghc-7.4.2
But when I do "emerge -puvD --changed-use @world" I get:
> # emerge -puvDN @world
>
> These are the packages that would be merged, in order:
>
> Calculating dependencies... done!

(I haven't gotten gtk to install just yet.) I can't figure out what's
causing the rebuilds. If I rebuild them, then they continue wanting
to rebuild. If I instead put the unversioned atoms in world and stick
the following in package.mask, then the rebuilds disappear:
>=dev-haskell/cabal-1.17
>=dev-haskell/mtl-2.1.2
>=dev-haskell/gtk-0.12.1
>=dev-haskell/hunit-1.2.4.3
>=dev-haskell/parsec-3.1.4
>=dev-lang/ghc-7.4.3
I've attached the output of "emerge -puvD --changed-use --debug
@world" for the rebuilding case. I see:
13993 Exiting... (dev-lang/ghc-7.4.2::gentoo-haskell, ebuild scheduled for
merge)
18458 @__auto_slot_operator_replace_installed__ depends on
...
18463 (dev-lang/ghc-7.4.2::gentoo-haskell, ebuild scheduled for merge)
(buildtime_slot_op)
18697 forced reinstall atoms:
18698 root: /
...
18711 atom: dev-lang/ghc:0
but don't understand why. What's causing the rebuilds?
Many thanks,
Bryan
