1 Hi. I am having problems installing zfs-kmod on my new kernel
2 5.4.69. Originally I got this:
3
4 !!! Multiple package instances within a single package slot have been
5 pulled
6 !!! into the dependency graph, resulting in a slot conflict:
7
8 sys-fs/zfs-kmod:0
9
10 (sys-fs/zfs-kmod-2.0.0_rc3:0/0::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge)
11 USE="rootfs -custom-cflags -debug" ABI_X86="(64)" pulled in by
12 (no parents that aren't satisfied by other packages in this
13 slot)
14
15 (sys-fs/zfs-kmod-2.0.0_rc1:0/0::gentoo, installed) USE="rootfs
16 -custom-cflags -debug" ABI_X86="(64)" pulled in by
17 ~sys-fs/zfs-kmod-2.0.0_rc1 required by
18 (sys-fs/zfs-2.0.0_rc1-r1:0/0::gentoo, installed) USE="nls pam rootfs
19 (split-usr) -custom-cflags -debug (-kernel-builtin) -libressl
20 -minimal -python (-static-libs) -test-suite" ABI_X86="(64)"
21 PYTHON_TARGETS="python3_7 -python3_6 -python3_8"

26 It may be possible to solve this problem by using package.mask to
27 prevent one of those packages from being selected. However, it is also
28 possible that conflicting dependencies exist such that they are
29 impossible to satisfy simultaneously. If such a conflict exists in
30 the dependencies of two different packages, then those packages can
31 not be installed simultaneously.

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

36 Then I masked off the -rc3 version thinking that would help and I got
37 this:

73 So, how do I fix -- I was thinking of uninstalling zfs-kmod, but was
74 afraid it would delete from my running kernel (4.19.144) or some other
75 fcatastrophe, so I thought I'd ask here first.
76
77 I am on the zfs-discuss list and a few months ago they were talking
78 about a necessary patch to install in 5.4 kernels because of not
79 exporting some symhbols as well.

81 Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

85 How do
86 you spend it?
