Subject: [gentoo-user] a couple of questions about updating gentoo

1 Hi. I am having problems with my current world update of an unstable
2 gentoo system. Before I paste the output, I need to tell you that I
3 need to have perl compiled with threads enabled because its a
4 requirement of freeswitch -- my current pbx. Also, I want to stay with
5 Firefox 3 and up to now, portage has just skipped the xulrunner update,
6 I am not sure why its changed its mind. Also, what can I do about the
7 gst plugin -- I don't understand what it is trying to tell me here.

14 Calculating dependencies ... . ... done!
15
16 !!! Multiple package instances within a single package slot have been
17 pulled
18 !!! into the dependency graph, resulting in a slot conflict:
19
20 net-libs/xulrunner:1.9
21
22 (net-libs/xulrunner-2.0.1-r1::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge)
23 pulled in by
24 (no parents that aren't satisfied by other packages in this slot)
25
26 (net-libs/xulrunner-1.9.2.18::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge)
27 pulled in by
28 ~net-libs/xulrunner-1.9.2.18[ipc=,java=,wifi=,libnotify=,system-sqlite=]
29 required by (www-client/firefox-3.6.18::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for
30 merge)
31
32 media-libs/gst-plugins-base:0.10
33
34 (media-libs/gst-plugins-base-0.10.32::gentoo, installed) pulled in by
35 ~media-libs/gst-plugins-base-0.10.32 required by
36 (media-plugins/gst-plugins-x-0.10.32::gentoo, installed)
37
38 (media-libs/gst-plugins-base-0.10.35::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for
39 merge) pulled in by
40 ~media-libs/gst-plugins-base-0.10.35 required by
41 (media-plugins/gst-plugins-vorbis-0.10.35::gentoo, ebuild scheduled
42 for merge)
43 >=media-libs/gst-plugins-base-0.10.35 required by
44 (media-plugins/gst-plugins-gio-0.10.35::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for
45 merge)
46 (and 10 more with the same problems)

49 It may be possible to solve this problem by using package.mask to
50 prevent one of those packages from being selected. However, it is also
51 possible that conflicting dependencies exist such that they are
52 impossible to satisfy simultaneously. If such a conflict exists in
53 the dependencies of two different packages, then those packages can
54 not be installed simultaneously.
55
56 For more information, see MASKED PACKAGES section in the emerge man
57 page or refer to the Gentoo Handbook.

60 emerge: there are no ebuilds built with USE flags to satisfy
61 "dev-lang/perl[-ithreads]".
62 !!! One of the following packages is required to complete your request:
63 - dev-lang/perl-5.12.4 (Change USE: -ithreads)
64 (dependency required by "www-apache/mod_perl-2.0.5[-threads]" [ebuild])
65 (dependency required by "@selected" [set])
66 (dependency required by "@world" [argument])

70 Your life is like a penny. You're going to lose it. The question is:
71 How do
72 you spend it?
