First, don't believe every post you read in gentoo-user. Just as you |
| 7 |
can post anything you want here, so can anybody else. People offer |
| 8 |
advice they think is helpful. That doesn't mean it is necessarily |
| 9 |
correct, and that statement isn't directed at anybody in particular. |
| 10 |
Anytime there is a post on -user you'll see about 5 right answers and |
| 11 |
5 wrong answers, and the person who knows the least (the person asking |
| 12 |
the question) gets to decide which one is which. Short of moderating |
| 13 |
the list we don't really have a solution for that. Something like |
| 14 |
stack exchange might be useful here. |

As I already said (in one of the emails you haven't replied to yet), |
| 17 |
we're fairly aware that portage output isn't very helpful here, and it |
| 18 |
is something people are interested in changing. I don't really see |
| 19 |
the point in asking for a feature request, since it is already |
| 20 |
well-known. |

| 22 |
I would recommend trying out my suggestion of adding --backtrack=50 |
| 23 |
before doing anything else. If that doesn't work, then try emerge |
| 24 |
-1'ing the various packages listed as requiring the older version of |
| 25 |
the library. |
