I did a fresh 'emerge sync' a few minutes ago, and tried to update 'world'. |
| 2 |
Apparently, gcc-3.2.2 requires binutils-2.13.90.0.18 (I'm running ~ppc) but |
| 3 |
portage thinks it's masked. |
| 4 |
|

After looking around in the ebuild (most of the time adding 'ppc' to the |
| 6 |
ebuild does the trick) I found it somewhat strange that binutils-2.13.90.0.18 |
| 7 |
was marked 'ppc' (stable) but marked unstable for every other platform. I |
| 8 |
looked in packages.mask and there are 2 versions masked, but not the version |
| 9 |
I'm trying to install. |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
In /usr/portage/profiles/default-ppc-1.4/packages I found out that all |
| 12 |
binutils >=2.13.90.0.4 are masked. |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
Why is that? How can an ebuild be marked stable on ppc and still be in the |
| 15 |
masked packages file? I assume the 'ppc' in the ebuild is a typo and should |
| 16 |
be (at least) '~ppc' ... Just curious ... |
