I had not synced for about 3 months (fear of new, incompatible gnucash) |
5 |
but have now done so. Unsurprisingly my normal update world shows many |
6 |
entries and also unsurprising is a blocker (slot conflict). However, I |
7 |
am confused by the message which reads |
8 |
|
9 |
!!! Multiple package instances within a single package slot have been pulled |
10 |
!!! into the dependency graph, resulting in a slot conflict: |
11 |
|
12 |
media-libs/x264:0 |
13 |
|
14 |
(media-libs/x264-0.0.20170701:0/152::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge) pulled in by |
15 |
(no parents that aren't satisfied by other packages in this slot) |
16 |
|
17 |
(media-libs/x264-0.0.20160712:0/148::gentoo, installed) pulled in by |
18 |
>=media-libs/x264-0.0.20130506:0/148=[abi_x86_64(-)] |
19 |
required by (media-video/ffmpeg-3.3.6:0/55.57.57::gentoo, installed) |
20 |
|
21 |
Why is this a conflict since the first one 0/152 seems to permit other |
22 |
solutions. Is the (unstated) point that the second one 0/148 is not one |
23 |
of the acceptable "other packages in this slot". |
24 |
|
25 |
Also I seem some advice. Should I be first working on this blockage. |
26 |
Or should I instead try to deal with some of the easy updates. |

thanks in advance, |
