1 Hello,
2
3 I have been having some issues for a while with trying to run deep updates on
4 one of my servers. My hope was that someone else had the problem, but I
5 can't seem to find anything on bugzilla concerning this.
6
7 Basically this server is setup as clean as I can get it since it is acting as
8 a gateway. I don't want a lot of packages installed, let alone xorg. Yet,
9 when I run a deep update:
10
11 # emerge -vuDp world
12
13 These are the packages that I would merge, in order:
14
15 Calculating world dependencies ...done!
16 [ebuild N ] x11-misc/ttmkfdir-3.0.9-r3 19 kB
17 [ebuild N ] media-libs/fontconfig-2.2.3 732 kB
18 [ebuild N ] x11-base/xorg-x11-6.8.2-r1 -3dfx -3dnow +bitmap-fonts -cjk
19 -debug -dlloader -dmx -doc -font-server -hardened -insecure-drivers +ipv6
20 -minimal +mmx +nls -opengl +pam -sdk +sse -static +truetype-fonts
21 +type1-fonts (-uclibc) -xprint +xv 45,094 kB
22 [ebuild N ] dev-lang/tk-8.4.9 -threads 3,189 kB
23 [ebuild N ] app-arch/rpm2targz-9.0-r3 2 kB
24 [ebuild N ] sys-apps/utempter-0.5.5.5-r1 20 kB
25 [ebuild N ] x11-terms/xterm-200-r3 -Xaw3d -toolbar +truetype +unicode 681
26 kB
27
28 Thinking it was possibly the USE flags, I tried to put a '-' in front of each
29 flag:
30 # eval "$(emerge --info | grep ^USE | perl -p -e 's/([\",\s])(\S)/$1-$2/g;')
31 emerge -vuDp world"
32
33 These are the packages that I would merge, in order:
34
35 Calculating world dependencies ...done!
36 [blocks B ] sys-apps/pam-login (is blocking sys-apps/shadow-4.0.5-r3)
37 [ebuild N ] x11-misc/ttmkfdir-3.0.9-r3 19 kB
38 [ebuild N ] media-libs/fontconfig-2.2.3 732 kB
39 [ebuild N ] x11-base/xorg-x11-6.8.2-r1 -3dfx -3dnow -bitmap-fonts -cjk
40 -debug -dlloader -dmx -doc -font-server -hardened -insecure-drivers -ipv6
41 -minimal -mmx -nls -opengl -pam -sdk -sse -static -truetype-fonts
42 -type1-fonts (-uclibc) -xprint -xv 44,665 kB
43 [ebuild N ] dev-lang/tk-8.4.9 -threads 3,189 kB

46 [ebuild N ] x11-terms/xterm-200-r3 -Xaw3d -toolbar -truetype -unicode 681
47 kB
48 [ebuild N ] sys-libs/libtermcap-compat-1.2.3-r1 539 kB

50 I have still been able to perform deep updates by manualy specifying the
51 packages I do want to update, but I am still a bit concerned as to what may
52 be causing this. Any ideas would be appreciated.

54 Thank you,
