I was trying to

emerge -pv dev-java/icedtea

and I got error messge:

[nomerge ] dev-java/icedtea-7.2.4.1:7 USE="X alsa cups jbootstrap nsplugin nss source webstart -cjk -debug -doc -examples -javascript -pax_kernel -pulseaudio -systemtap {-test}"
[ebuild N ~] dev-java/icedtea-web-1.3.2-r7:7 USE="nsplugin -build -doc -javascript {-test}" 1,015 kB
[ebuild N ~] dev-java/icedtea-7.2.4.1:7 USE="X alsa cups jbootstrap nsplugin nss source webstart -cjk -debug -doc -examples -javascript -pax_kernel -pulseaudio -systemtap {-test}" 72,951 kB

Total: 2 packages (2 new), Size of downloads: 73,966 kB

* Error: circular dependencies:

(dev-java/icedtea-7.2.4.1::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge) depends on
(dev-java/icedtea-7.2.4.1::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge) (buildtime)

Then I tried

USE=-webstart emerge -pv dev-java/icedtea

but I still couldn't emerge dev-java/icedtea, as I was getting the following similar error message:

[nomerge ] dev-java/icedtea-7.2.4.1:7 USE="X alsa cups jbootstrap nsplugin nss source -cjk -debug -doc -examples -javascript -pax_kernel -pulseaudio -systemtap {-test} -webstart"
[ebuild N ~] dev-java/icedtea-web-1.3.2-r7:7 USE="nsplugin -build -doc -javascript {-test}" 1,015 kB
[ebuild N ~] dev-java/icedtea-7.2.4.1:7 USE="X alsa cups jbootstrap nsplugin nss source -cjk -debug -doc -examples -javascript -pax_kernel -pulseaudio -systemtap {-test} -webstart" 72,951 kB

Total: 2 packages (2 new), Size of downloads: 73,966 kB

* Error: circular dependencies:

(dev-java/icedtea-7.2.4.1::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge) depends on
(dev-java/icedtea-7.2.4.1::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge) (buildtime)

Is there anyway I can get rid of the circular dependency (which I assume is between dev-java/icedtea and dev-java/icedtea-web)?

You need a java compiler up and running to build icedtea,
because parts of it are written in java.

You can bootstrap with the package dev-java/icedtea-bin, which is a precompiled binary,
or with dev-java/gcj-jdk, which is the GNU implementation of a java compiler und can be compiled
without another java.

Hope that helps.

I already had dev-java/icedtea-bin installed:

emerge -pv dev-java/icedtea-bin

* IMPORTANT: config file '/etc/portage/repos.conf/gentoo.conf' needs updating.
* See the CONFIGURATION FILES section of the emerge
* man page to learn how to update config files.

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies... done!

Since you keyworded icedtea, what happens if you also keyword icedtea-bin?
I think you need compatible versions.
Or you try putting this in your /etc/portage/package.accept_keywords:
Quote:
=dev-java/icedtea-6.1.12.6

..depending on what java version you would like to have.

Edit:

You can see that in the ebuilds.

/usr/portage/dev-java/icedtea/icedtea-7.2.4.1.ebuild:
Code:

DEPEND="[...]
    || (
        >=dev-java/gcj-jdk-4.3
        dev-java/icedtea-bin:7
        dev-java/icedtea:7
    )
   [...]"


/usr/portage/dev-java/icedtea/icedtea-6.1.12.6.ebuild:
Code:
DEPEND="[...]
    || (
        >=dev-java/gcj-jdk-4.3
        dev-java/icedtea-bin:6
        dev-java/icedtea:6
    )
   [...]"
