4 Hi all,
5
6 I had posted about this relatively recently, and didn't get any
7 response, so I thought I would try again. I thought I had solved the
8 problem (I had a bunch of stuff in package.keywords that probably
9 didn't need to be there), so I left it alone. It seems to have
10 resurfaced.
11
12 I went to do an `emerge -Duatv world` tonight, and I get dev-php/php
13 and dev-php/mod_php blocking. So I uninstalled them, and thought that
14 I would re-install later (if necessary). When I run it again, I get
15 dev-lang/php blocking dev-php/php-4.4.0-r4 (which is the one I just
16 unemerged). So, same logical progression, I go to unemerge
17 dev-lang/php, and, lo and behold, it's not installed.
18
19 I vaguely remembered that the portage crew did some "tinkering" with
20 the portage tree when PHP5 came out, and it had something to do with
21 the whole dev-php/php-dev-lang/php issue.
22
23 So, my questions to the group are these:
24
25 1) Why does `emerge -Duatv world` find a package (which blocks
26 another that it wants to update) that `emerge -CDatv world` does NOT find?
27
28 2) How do I rectify this little "version discrepancy" fixed so that I
29 can get things updating normally again?
30
31 Any help would be great. Thanks.
