Circular Dependency problem

[tolvo]

Hi everybody.

I was installing Funtoo in my notebook and when I try "emerge -a networkmanager" I received a message about circular dependency between cmake and another package. So I try some commands like "emerge -1 --nodeps cmake" or "emerge --nodeps networkmanager" but I don't have good luck.

After that I downloaded a new stage but I find the same problem.

I got that issue today too. Was this other package jsoncpp?

 

I got around it by emerging an older version of cmake, cmake-2.8.12.2, then emerging jsoncpp, and updating cmake to current.

 

To have portage emerge the older version, try echo ">dev-util/cmake-2.8.12.2" >> /etc/portage/package.mask

Once that's done, I removed the line from package.mask

 

Hope it works for you!

Thanks, works now!
