Dear fellow Gentooers,

I have a strange message during the system upgrade, which looks like portage would not order the package revisions correctly.

Code:
WARNING: One or more updates/rebuilds have been skipped due to a dependency conflict:

app-text/xmlto:0

  (app-text/xmlto-0.0.28-r11:0/0::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge) USE="-latex -text" ABI_X86="(64)" conflicts with
    >=app-text/xmlto-0.0.28-r3[text(+)] required by (x11-misc/xdg-utils-1.2.1-r6:0/0::gentoo, installed) USE="X dbus -doc -gnome -plasma" ABI_X86="(64)"


It is no big deal. But I am unsure, whether I do interpret it correctly...
I read it, that portage decided that xxx_r11 was below xxx_r3, which is the minimum required revision here, so it skips the update.
Is this correct?
I presume, that the issue is regarded as too minor to implement some code in portage to deal with this situation.
Again: Is this correct?

Thank You and best regards
Peter

I think that is not the right interpretation. Portage is telling you that it would install -r11, but that doing so would violate a constraint set by xdg-utils, due to the USE flag mismatch. The versioning has nothing to do with it. xdg-utils wants xmlto with USE=+text. Your upgrade would install xmlto with USE=-text. This is a conflict.

Thank You!

It happens so often, that I don't get the obvious... :-(

Glad, You remind me to examine _all_ the details.
