OK, So it's not that. And you are running a stable (x86) system. |
23 |
|
24 |
In your case, unstable kipi-plugins is trying to install unstable libkexiv2. |
25 |
It's normally digikam that pulls in kipi-plugins, so we need to find out why. |
26 |
|
27 |
You might have once installed an unstable digikam to try some new feature, |
28 |
so "grep -r" for digikam and kipi-plugins in /etc/portage. |
29 |
|
30 |
If that doesn't reveal the problem, time for big guns: |
31 |
|
32 |
emerge -pvuNDt world |
33 |
|
34 |
will show what is pulling those unstable versions in. But whatever you do, don't |
35 |
do a "ACCEPT_KEYWORDS=~x86 emerge ..." to try and resolve it. That will |
36 |
install even more unstable packages and make the problem worse. You need to |
37 |
find the unwanted unstable package you already have and downgrade it . |
