>Description:
I have bootstrapped pkgsrc, installed and configured shlock, and now I am 
trying to install lang/gcc34. This deadlocks in a circular dependency between 
net/tnftp and devel/ncurses:

=> Verifying reinstall for ../../net/tnftp
...
=> Build dependency shlock>=20020114: found shlock-20080529
=> Full dependency ncurses>=5.4nb1: NOT found
=> Verifying reinstall for ../../devel/ncurses
...
=> Verifying reinstall for ../../net/tnftp
=> Lock acquire-bootstrap-depends-lock is held by pid 16908

When setting PKGSRC_LOCKTYPE=none, this happens:

ERROR: This package has set PKG_FAIL_REASON:
ERROR: Circular dependency detected
