I recently switched from the proprietary ati-driver to the open source radeon |
| 2 |
driver. After a great deal of sweating and swearing and experimenting, I got |
| 3 |
the xorg.conf file properly configured. I have ati-drivers masked in my |
| 4 |
package.mask. However, something in my system still thinks I should be using |
| 5 |
the ati-drivers. Updating world gives me: |
| 6 |
|
| 7 |
root@Merlin:/etc/portage # emerge -uDvat world |
| 8 |
|
| 9 |
These are the packages that would be merged, in reverse order: |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
Calculating world dependencies / |
| 12 |
!!! All ebuilds that could satisfy ">=x11-drivers/ati-drivers-8.27.10" have |
| 13 |
been masked. |
| 14 |
!!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request: |
| 15 |
- x11-drivers/ati-drivers-8.27.10-r1 (masked by: package.mask) |
| 16 |
- x11-drivers/ati-drivers-8.28.8 (masked by: package.mask, ~x86 keyword) |
| 17 |
- x11-drivers/ati-drivers-8.29.6 (masked by: package.mask, ~x86 keyword) |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
For more information, see MASKED PACKAGES section in the emerge man page or |
| 20 |
refer to the Gentoo Handbook. |

!!! Problem resolving dependencies for kde-base/kompare |
| 23 |
!!! Depgraph creation failed. |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
Just to see what it would give me, I commented oue the ati-package in |
| 27 |
package.mask and tested updating kompare. |
| 28 |
|
| 29 |
|
| 30 |
root@Merlin:/etc/portage # emerge -uDvat kompare |

These are the packages that would be merged, in reverse order: |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
Calculating dependencies... done! |

I'm not worried about the esound blockage. That's another issue. I'm just |
| 69 |
trying to figure out why my system thinks ati-package is a requirement. I |
| 70 |
have a hard time believing that someone with an NVidia card would need that |
| 71 |
package, so it can't be a hard requirement. Any ideas on how to track this |
| 72 |
down? I don't see anything in the USE flags which might bring it in. |
