It is a bug in the ebuild dependencies. It has a hard dependency on DBD-mysql, which in turn has a hard dependency on mysql. It appears to be fixed in the later unstable ebuilds. For information on how to install unstable ebuilds, read Chapter 3. Working with Portage in the handbook. Regards, Paul -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
