Hi. In preparing for the profile switch and the emerge -e world, I |
2 |
have run into a serious problem with perl. I think I saw on this list |
3 |
where perl 5.26 was going to have problems -- maybe until it is |
4 |
stabilized -- but if I mask it off, I get the following: |
5 |
|
6 |
!!! All ebuilds that could satisfy "=dev-lang/perl-5.26*" have been |
7 |
masked. |
8 |
!!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete |
9 |
your request: |
10 |
- dev-lang/perl-5.26.9999::gentoo (masked by: package.mask, |
11 |
missing keyword) |
12 |
- dev-lang/perl-5.26.1-r1::gentoo (masked by: package.mask) |
13 |
- dev-lang/perl-5.26.1::gentoo (masked by: package.mask) |
14 |
- dev-lang/perl-5.26.0::gentoo (masked by: package.mask) |
15 |
|
16 |
(dependency required by "virtual/perl-Test-Harness-3.380.0::gentoo" |
17 |
[ebuild]) |
18 |
(dependency required by "perl-core/ExtUtils-MakeMaker-7.240.0::gentoo" |
19 |
[ebuild]) |
20 |
(dependency required by |
21 |
"virtual/perl-ExtUtils-MakeMaker-7.240.0::gentoo" [ebuild]) |
22 |
(dependency required by "dev-perl/Class-Singleton-1.500.0::gentoo" |
23 |
[ebuild]) |
24 |
(dependency required by "media-video/clive-2.3.0.1::gentoo" [ebuild]) |
25 |
(dependency required by "@selected" [set]) |
26 |
(dependency required by "@world" [argument]) |
27 |
|
28 |
If I don't mask it off, I get the following: (just emerging perl by |
29 |
itself) |
30 |
|
31 |
|
32 |
!!! Multiple package instances within a single package slot have been |
33 |
pulled |
34 |
!!! into the dependency graph, resulting in a slot conflict: |
35 |
|
36 |
dev-lang/perl:0 |
37 |
|
38 |
(dev-lang/perl-5.26.1-r1:0/5.26::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge) |
39 |
pulled in by |
40 |

NOTE: Use the '--verbose-conflicts' option to display parents omitted |
59 |
above |
60 |
|
61 |
!!! The slot conflict(s) shown above involve package(s) which may need |
62 |
to |
63 |
!!! be rebuilt in order to solve the conflict(s). However, the |
64 |
following |
65 |
!!! package(s) cannot be rebuilt for the reason(s) shown: |
66 |
|
67 |
(virtual/perl-Test-Simple-1.1.14-r3:0/0::gentoo, installed): ebuild |
68 |
is masked or unavailable |
69 |
|
70 |
|
71 |
It may be possible to solve this problem by using package.mask to |
72 |
prevent one of those packages from being selected. However, it is also |
73 |
possible that conflicting dependencies exist such that they are |
74 |
impossible to satisfy simultaneously. If such a conflict exists in |
75 |
the dependencies of two different packages, then those packages can |
76 |
not be installed simultaneously. |

For more information, see MASKED PACKAGES section in the emerge man |
79 |
page or refer to the Gentoo Handbook. |

Thanks in advance for any suggestions. |

Your life is like a penny. You're going to lose it. The question is: |
87 |
How do |
88 |
you spend it? |
