Hi all, |
2 |
I've got a PC that I use as a media computer, music, videos etc. I |
3 |
haven't updated it in ages so decided now is the time to give it a go. I |
4 |
issue the command, and subsequently get: |
5 |
|
6 |
*************************** |
7 |
|
8 |
harold ~# emerge --pretend -NuD world |
9 |
|
10 |
These are the packages that would be merged, in order: |
11 |
|
12 |
Calculating dependencies... done! |
13 |
|
14 |
emerge: there are no ebuilds built with USE flags to satisfy |
15 |
"dev-vcs/subversion[-dso,perl]". |
16 |
!!! One of the following packages is required to complete your request: |
17 |
- dev-vcs/subversion-1.6.15 (Change USE: -dso) |
18 |
(dependency required by "dev-vcs/git-1.7.4_rc3" [ebuild]) |
19 |
(dependency required by "sys-devel/gettext-0.18.1.1-r1" [ebuild]) |
20 |
(dependency required by "dev-libs/popt-1.16-r1" [ebuild]) |
21 |
(dependency required by "dev-util/pkgconfig-0.25-r2" [ebuild]) |
22 |
(dependency required by "dev-lang/python-3.1.3" [ebuild]) |
23 |
(dependency required by "app-admin/python-updater-0.8" [installed]) |
24 |
|

Well, it's a media computer so subversion shouldn't be there - I think |
28 |
it's a leftover from a previous task for this machine. So I now issue |
29 |
the command, and once again get: |
30 |
|
31 |
*************************** |
32 |
|
33 |
harold ~ # emerge -C subversion |
34 |
* This action can remove important packages! In order to be safer, use |
35 |
* `emerge -pv --depclean <atom>` to check for reverse dependencies before |
36 |
* removing packages. |

--- Couldn't find 'null/subversion' to unmerge. |

So, I'm now confused. I'm not a "Portage rocket scientist", but my |
46 |
reading of this is that subversion needs some flags set, but subversion |
47 |
isn't there!!!! Is this correct? Any ideas as to how I can get myself |
48 |
out of this pickle? |
49 |
|

Any thoughts greatly appreciated, |
