I hope my continued reports on "emerge -U" are neither out of place |
| 2 |
nor too tiresome. Today, I "emerge sync"'d, tried "emerge -Up --deep |
| 3 |
world" and got the following error: |
| 4 |
|
| 5 |
|
| 6 |
% emerge -Up --deep world |
| 7 |
>>> --upgradeonly implies --update... adding --update to options. |
| 8 |
|
| 9 |
These are the packages that I would merge, in order: |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
Calculating world dependencies \ |
| 12 |
!!! all ebuilds that could satisfy "=gnome-extra/gal-0.24*" have been masked. |
| 13 |
!!! (dependency required by "gnome-extra/gtkhtml-1.1.10" [ebuild]) |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
!!! Problem with ebuild gnome-extra/gtkhtml-1.1.10 |
| 16 |
!!! Possibly a DEPEND/*DEPEND problem. |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
!!! Depgraph creation failed. |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
Then I checked more specifically with: |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
% emerge -Up --deep gtkhtml |
| 25 |
>>> --upgradeonly implies --update... adding --update to options. |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
These are the packages that I would merge, in order: |
| 28 |
|
| 29 |
Calculating dependencies \ |
| 30 |
!!! all ebuilds that could satisfy "=gnome-extra/gal-0.24*" have been masked. |
| 31 |
!!! (dependency required by "gnome-extra/gtkhtml-1.1.10" [ebuild]) |
| 32 |
|
| 33 |
!!! Error calculating dependancies. Please correct. |
| 34 |
|
| 35 |
|
| 36 |
Then I tried: |
| 37 |
|
| 38 |
|
| 39 |
% ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" emerge -Up --deep gtkhtml |
| 40 |
|
| 41 |
|
| 42 |
and this worked fine and printed a list in which NEITHER gal nor |
| 43 |
gtkhtml appeared. |
| 44 |
|
| 45 |
|
| 46 |
My guess is that "emerge -U --deep" is not prepared to investigate |
| 47 |
~arch masked dependencies eventhough their are (obviously) installed. |
| 48 |
|
| 49 |
Again it seems to me that this violates the intended purpose of -U |
| 50 |
which is to conveniently upgrade a Gentoo installation where some |
| 51 |
masked packages may have been installed. |
| 52 |
|
| 53 |
Is the current behaviour a design decision or a "not implemented yet" |
| 54 |
corner case of emerge? |
| 55 |
|
| 56 |
Cheers, |
