Xorg-server-1.6.3.901-r2 is now stable on x86. |
| 2 |
I see the following in the ebuild |
| 3 |
|
| 4 |
RDEPEND="hal? ( sys-apps/hal ) |
| 5 |
tslib? ( >=x11-libs/tslib-1.0 x11-proto/xcalibrateproto ) |
| 6 |
dev-libs/openssl |
| 7 |
>=x11-libs/libXfont-1.4.0 |
| 8 |
|
| 9 |
I believe this says that libXfont >= 1.4.0 must be present. |
| 10 |
But eix -e libXfont reports |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
[I] x11-libs/libXfont |
| 13 |
Available versions: 1.3.1-r1 1.3.4 ~1.4.0 {debug ipv6} |
| 14 |
Installed versions: 1.3.4(09:46:47 10/05/09)(ipv6 -debug) |
| 15 |
Homepage: http://xorg.freedesktop.org/ |
| 16 |
Description: X.Org Xfont library |

|
| 18 |
which asserts that no version >=1.4.0 is stable. |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
I have resynced since I first noticed this and it is still the case. |
| 21 |
Naturally this prevents my emerge ... world |
| 22 |
from completing. |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
I can certainly add libXfont to /etc/portage/package.keywords, but I |
| 25 |
find it strange that a stable package (xorg-server) requires a testing |
| 26 |
version of another package (libXfont). |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
Advice on how to proceed would be appreciated. |
