Hello all, |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
Confused... |
| 4 |
|
| 5 |
emerge -pvuDN world shows (among a few others): |
| 6 |
|
| 7 |
[ebuild N ] virtual/modutils-0 0 kB |
| 8 |
|
| 9 |
No warnings about blockers or anything are evident. |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
However, when I do emerge -pvuDN modutils (instead of 'world), I get the |
| 12 |
following warning about blockers: |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
myhost : Sun Feb 05, 11:12:24 : ~ |
| 15 |
# emerge -pvuDN modutils |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
These are the packages that would be merged, in order: |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
Calculating dependencies... done! |
| 20 |
[ebuild N ] sys-apps/modutils-2.4.27-r1 0 kB |
| 21 |
[uninstall ] sys-apps/module-init-tools-3.16-r1 USE="-static" |
| 22 |
[blocks b ] sys-apps/modutils ("sys-apps/modutils" is blocking |
| 23 |
sys-apps/module-init-tools-3.16-r1) |
| 24 |
[blocks b ] sys-apps/module-init-tools |
| 25 |
("sys-apps/module-init-tools" is blocking sys-apps/modutils-2.4.27-r1) |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
Total: 1 package (1 new, 1 uninstall), Size of downloads: 0 kB |
| 28 |
Conflict: 2 blocks |
| 29 |
myhost : Sun Feb 05, 11:20:15 : ~ |
| 30 |
|
| 31 |
Then, when I try to perform the update, it fails with: |
| 32 |
|
| 33 |
* Package 'sys-apps/modutils-2.4.27-r1' NOT merged due to file |
| 34 |
* collisions. If necessary, refer to your elog messages for the whole |
| 35 |
* content of the above message. |
| 36 |
|
| 37 |

I hate guessing about things like this, but I'm 'guessing' that all I |
| 45 |
need to do is: |
| 46 |
|
| 47 |
emerge -C sys-apps/module-init-tools-3.16-r1 |
| 48 |
then |
| 49 |
emerge -vuDN modutils |
| 50 |
|
| 51 |
? |
| 52 |
|
| 53 |
Thanks, |
