I just updated Qt5 to 5.6.2 & ran into a familiar Portage problem. |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
The emerge command responds with a list of "conflicts", |
| 4 |
all involving 5.6.1 vs 5.6.2 versions of the c 15 pkgs. |
| 5 |
The only way to get around this is to unmerge the existing pkgs via '-C', |
| 6 |
then install the new versions. That works, but it's brute force. |
| 7 |
|
| 8 |
Portage sb able to resolve this kind of conflict for itself. |
| 9 |
If not, then at least it should advise users intelligently |
| 10 |
to do what I've just described. It can happen with other sets of pkgs. |

Yes, I did do 'backtrack==30'. |

Before I send in a bug, does anyone else have useful comments ? |
