1 Hi. I seem to have a strange situation where a package block itself
2 or that is the way it seems.
3
4 If I try to do emerge gnupg this is what I get.
5 emerge gnupg
6 >>> cfg-update-1.8.0-r3 : No new packages have been emerged, checksum
7 >index OK...

9 These are the packages that would be merged, in order:
10
11 Calculating dependencies... done!
12 [ebuild U ] dev-libs/libksba-0.9.15 [0.9.14] 481 kB
13 [ebuild NS ] app-crypt/gnupg-1.4.6 USE="X ldap nls readline zlib
14 -bindist -bzip2 -curl -ecc -idea (-selinux) -smartcard -static -usb"
15 LINGUAS="-ru" 0 kB
16 [ebuild U ] app-crypt/gnupg-1.9.21 [1.9.20-r3] USE="X ldap nls
17 -gpg2-experimental (-selinux) -smartcard (-caps%)" 1,858 kB
18 [blocks B ] app-crypt/gnupg (is blocking
19 app-crypt/gnupg-1.9.20-r3)
20
21 Total: 3 packages (2 upgrades, 1 in new slot, 1 block), Size of
22 downloads: 2,338 kB
23
24 !!! Error: The above package list contains packages which cannot be
25 installed
26 !!! at the same time on the same system.
27
28 Now if I do equery list on gnupg this is what I get.
29 [I--] [M ] app-crypt/gnupg-1.9.20-r3 (1.9)
30
31 Does this meanthat I already have 1.9.20-r3 on the system already?
32 And if so how do I resolve the block?
33
34 Any assistance would be appreciated.
