One of my gentoo linux is 1.4RC1, updated every day. |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
One day, I enabled unstable (~ARCH) to upgrade few packages |
| 4 |
(pure-ftpd,also gcc, glibc, and few others which no i dont remember :( |
| 5 |
just because stable version was old and i needed some features. |
| 6 |
|
| 7 |
everything went smoothly. THen I returned to stable (by disabling ~arch) |
| 8 |
and again daily started (manually) upgrading system. |
| 9 |
|
| 10 |
But here I faced two problems, first is rather annoying while not |
| 11 |
critical. it can be even considered feature :) |
| 12 |
after upgrade to gcc 3.2.1 (unstable), and returned to stable, every |
| 13 |
emerge -p world want to downgrade gcc to old gcc version. I think that |
| 14 |
there should be at least switch/option to disable downgrades in case of |
| 15 |
using unstable/stable packages mix. not to mention that such downgrade |
| 16 |
can propably (?) result in unstable system (for example, one app can be |
| 17 |
linked to downgraded library). |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
but the critical bug (?) i found is, that from the day when i changed |
| 20 |
unstable back to stable, i emerge world manualy (each app/ebuild by |
| 21 |
hand), waiting for some apps (gcc/glibc) to be promoted from unstable to |
| 22 |
stable. and here starts sth strange. when one day I did such emerge |
| 23 |
world (becasue, i checked that downgrade would not happen), emerge broke |
| 24 |
after binutils, because binutils packagae was _removed_. I mean: upgrade to newer |
| 25 |
version of binutils caused that there was NO binutils. emerge still |
| 26 |
shows that package is installed but there was no binaries. |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
of course, without /usr/bin/as gcc stopped to work :( i installed by |
| 29 |
hand binutills binaries. then I have to emerge unmerge bintuitils, again |
| 30 |
install by hand my binaries, then emerge binutils. whats strange, that |
| 31 |
automatic upgrade was/is broken. i mean, normal emerge binutils (without |
| 32 |
firstly unmerge) resulted in removed files. |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
First I thought it was some kind of my fault, but today the same |
| 35 |
happened with gzip. emerging it resulted in no gzip binaries on system. |
| 36 |
Im not sure but i think that it is connected to this |
| 37 |
stable/unstable/stable switch I made few weeks ago (gzip were one among |
| 38 |
others upgraded to unstable version that day). |
