It gets stranger. I was getting the same results as you and did some experiments running emerge -p and --backtrack. And suddenly, emerge -avuND world now works as expected. How's that for non-deterministic? I can only assume those weird magic dynamic depends are somehow involved and as such is worthy of a bug report. You can also resync as xorg-server-1.16.0.901 is now gone from the tree. -- Alan McKinnon [email protected]
