Cyclic dependencies = pain in the butt

2008-03-30 Thread Eduardo Cerejo
After running pkgdb -F I'm getting endless cyclic dependencies, so many of them 
that I completely gave up.  The last one goes like this:

---  Checking the package registry database
Cyclic dependencies: gnome-desktop-2.22.0 - nautilus-2.22.1 - eel-2.22.1 - 
py25-gnome-2.22.0 - tracker-0.6.2_2 - (gnome-desktop-2.22.0)
Unlink which dependency? (? to help): 

What does this mean? Is there another way to fix this than to figure this out?  
How am I suppose to know what depends on what?  I thought portupgrade would do 
that automatically.

Try going to x11-toolkits/py-gnome2, and doing a make all-depends-list
to see if it really does depend on tracker-0.6.2_2 It doesn't in my
tree, but it may be that you have hit on a combination of options that
produces the cycle.
