I went to update my system (emerge world -vuDNp) and noticed a block by |
| 2 |
openexr (being updated) on ilmbase (new package). So, I was wondering |
| 3 |
what they are and which one I should be using. |

media-libs/openexr-1.6.1 [1.4.0a] Update! |
| 6 |
media-libs/ilmbase-1.0.1 New! |
| 7 |
<media-libs/openexr-1.5.0 blocking ilmbase-1.0.1 |

I noticed they are both ILM (Industrial Light & Magic) file format |
| 11 |
stuff, and that OpenEXR split back in December 2006 into three packages: |
| 12 |
ilmbase 0.9, OpenEXR 1.5, OpenEXRViewers 0.9. And then in August |
| 13 |
everything upgraded to 1.0, 1.6, 1.0 respectively; with a further update |
| 14 |
in October to 1.0.1, 1.6.1, 1.0.1 respectively. |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
So okay - openexr 1.4.0a needs to be removed and openexr 1.6.1 installed |
| 17 |
instead with ilmbase 1.0.1 also installed, no? |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
But then why is emerge wanting to install openexr 1.5 too? |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
But what's the best way to do the update? I could just unmerge (emerge |
| 22 |
-C) openexr and then do the update, and remerge openexr afterwards if |
| 23 |
need be. Or is there a better way? |
| 24 |

TIA, |
