I run --depclean every once and a while to see if anything is not needed |
| 2 |
anymore. Sort of do a little house cleaning. When I run it, it gives |
| 3 |
me this message: |
| 4 |
|
| 5 |
Calculating dependencies... done! |
| 6 |
* Dependencies could not be completely resolved due to |
| 7 |
* the following required packages not being installed: |

* media-sound/phonon[-aqua] pulled in by: |
| 10 |
* x11-libs/qt-webkit-4.7.1-r1 |
| 11 |
* |
| 12 |
* Have you forgotten to run `emerge --update --newuse --deep @world` prior |
| 13 |
* to depclean? It may be necessary to manually uninstall packages that |
| 14 |
no longer |
| 15 |
* exist in the portage tree since it may not be possible to satisfy their |
| 16 |
* dependencies. Also, be aware of the --with-bdeps option that is |
| 17 |
documented |
| 18 |
* in `man emerge`. |

I ran this just before the above: |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
root@fireball / # emerge -uvDNa world --with-bdeps y |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
These are the packages that would be merged, in order: |

Nothing to merge; would you like to auto-clean packages? [Yes/No] y |

So, nothing needs to be updated but yet --depclean complains about the |
| 38 |
package not being installed. Here is the kicker: |
| 39 |
|
| 40 |
root@fireball / # emerge -pv media-sound/phonon x11-libs/qt-webkit |
| 41 |
|
| 42 |
These are the packages that would be merged, in order: |

Yep, it's installed. Just for good measure, I rebuilt them with -1 and |
| 54 |
it installed them just fine. Same message as before tho. Still |
| 55 |
complains that a package is not installed. |

Is this a bug or am I missing something, again. ;-) |
