Sometimes if it is set, it needs to be enabled for other packages it
depends on as well if you want that option.  On the other hand, if it is
not set for the dependencies, then you need to turn it off for the
package in question as well. 

It would be nice if it was clearer at times but we don't code the thing
either.  Usually, I trial and error it until I run out of ideas and then
I post for someone with that crystal ball to help me with it.  lol 

Of course, it could something else causing this too.  There's a couple
on here with a crystal ball so maybe they will help out if you don't
find a solution soon.
