1 Hi,
2
3 I just successfully installed a gentoo prefix setup on CentOS (amd64).
4 I was silly and used "eselect profile" after the instllation and this
5 seems to have broken the instllation. I tried to fix it by having
6 "$EPREFIX/etc/make.profile" point to
7 "$EPREFIX/usr/portage/profiles/prefix/linux/amd64". However, now
8 portage tries to install masked packages, e.g.,
9
10 emerge -a portage
11 ..
12 [ebuild N *] sys-apps/sandbox-2.5 USE="(-multilib)"
13 [ebuild U *] sys-apps/portage-9999 [2.2.01.19295] USE="-python2% -python3%"
14
15 The following keyword changes are necessary to proceed:
16 #required by sys-apps/portage-9999, required by portage (argument)
17 >=sys-apps/sandbox-2.5 **
18 #required by portage (argument)
19 >=sys-apps/portage-9999 **
20
21 On the other hand, if I set "EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS="--autounmask=n" all
22 versions of portage seem to be masked. I have not manually unmasked or
23 masked any packages and have no idea why this is happening. Any tips
24 on how to fix this are greatly appreciated.
