I cleared everything X related from my box, and it is still alive and well :-) |
2 |
|
3 |
Now, as I was explaining in my previous thread, I would like to |
4 |
re-install X and all related apps, but forcing the older libxcb |
5 |
version. After I upgraded to libxcb 1.4 a few days ago, my X was |
6 |
unstable and kept crashing while scrolling in Mathematica, so I wanted |
7 |
to clear everything X out, start from scratch, and revert to my |
8 |
original X configuration. |
9 |
|
10 |
Here is the new problem. |
11 |
|
12 |
In my package.mask, I specify: |
13 |
|
14 |
>=x11-libs/libxcb-1.4 |
15 |
>=x11-base/xorg-server-1.6 |
16 |
>=x11-base/xorg-x11-7.4 |
17 |
|
18 |
My USE is now: "alsa ao bash-completion bzip2 cdda cddb cdparanoia |
19 |
cdr cpudetection ieee1394 lame ldap libwww |
20 |
mad mmx mmxext mp3 openal oss ppds rtc smp |
21 |
spell sse sse2 tta usb wavpack winbind xml -dri -isdnlog -pppd" |
22 |
|
23 |
So, I put in the X USE flag and attempt |
24 |
|
25 |
emerge -NDavu xorg-x11 |
26 |
|
27 |
and get |
28 |
|
29 |
!!! All ebuilds that could satisfy ">=x11-libs/libxcb-1.2" have been masked. |
30 |
!!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request: |
31 |
- x11-libs/libxcb-1.4-r1 (masked by: package.mask) |
32 |
|
33 |
(dependency required by "x11-libs/libX11-1.2.2" [ebuild]) |
34 |
(dependency required by "x11-libs/libXext-1.0.5" [ebuild]) |
35 |
(dependency required by "x11-libs/libXv-1.0.4" [ebuild]) |
36 |
(dependency required by "x11-base/xorg-x11-7.2" [ebuild]) |
37 |
(dependency required by "xorg-x11" [argument]) |
38 |
|
39 |
What gives? Am I doing something stupid (well, aside from trying to |
40 |
downgrade...), or is there a way for me to fix this by some keywording |
41 |
trickery or something to that effect? Help, please :-) |
