Hello list, |
2 |
|
3 |
I mantain my own copy of dev-db/mysql (5.1.42) so I have the following |
4 |
information in my package.provided and virtuals files. |
5 |
|
6 |
~ $ cat /etc/portage/profile/package.provided |
7 |
mail-mta/netqmail-1.06 |
8 |
dev-db/mysql-5.0.84-r1 |
9 |
|
10 |
~ $ cat /etc/portage/profile/virtuals |
11 |
virtual/mta mail-mta/netqmail |
12 |
virtual/mysql dev-db/mysql |
13 |
|
14 |
This worked ok so far until a few days ago. After syncing the tree |
15 |
'emerge -avuDN world' wants to add 'virtual-mysql-5.0' overriding (I |
16 |
think) the settings I've specified above. |
17 |
|
18 |
This is happening on two Gentoo servers I mantain and I have the same |
19 |
problem on my desktop computer, which runs Funtoo, but with Funtoo the |
20 |
problem appeared a few months ago. I don't recall exactly how long. |
21 |
|
22 |
I've been searching the net for a few days and trying to find some |
23 |
orientation on IRC but so far I'm still clueless. |
24 |
|
25 |
Can this be considered a normal operation? If so, what should I do with |
26 |
the entries in the virtuals file. |
27 |
|
28 |
Is it safe to allow virtual/mysql-5.0 to be installed in this case? |
29 |
|
30 |
Can this be considered a bug? |

Thanks in advance for any tips you could give me. |
