1 Hello list,
2
3 After an emerge sync, I followed the instructions in
4
5 http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/gentoo-upgrading.xml
6
7 for updating to 2006.1.
8
9 Proceeding to the system update:
10
11 ->emerge --update --deep --newuse --pretend --verbose system
12
13 I get this error message before the list of packages
14
15 ************************************
16 These are the packages that would be merged, in order:
17
18 Calculating system dependencies
19 Parse Error reading PROVIDE and USE in
20 '/var/db/pkg/x11-base/xorg-x11-6.8.2-r4'
21 Possibly Invalid: 'virtual/x11 opengl? virtual/opengl opengl?
22 virtual/glu virtual/xft'
23 Exception: Conditional without parenthesis: 'opengl?'
24 *************************************
25
26 Is this related to the current modular use of X11? Later in the output
27 of system packages to be updated I get:
28
29 ******************************

41 Should I clean out my old X? which is x11-base/xorg-x11-6.8.2-r4 and not
42 x11-base/xorg-x11-6.9 as in the blocking message above. Also, according
43 to emerge --search the latest version available for x11-base/xorg-x11 is
44 7.1.
45
46 Thanks for inputs.
