Hi James, |
43 |
|
44 |
My guess is that you've unmasked sys-fs/udev-196 only partially. |
45 |
Portage tries to calculate the dependencies for it and finds that |
46 |
something is still missing (e.g. you need to ~amd64 more packages) so |
47 |
Portage stops with sys-fs/udev and tries to satisfy virtual/udev with |
48 |
eudev instead. |
49 |
|
50 |
Try an "emerge -pv =sys-fs/udev-196-r1" and see if that gives any |
51 |
reason why Portage isn't happy with it. |
52 |

HTH, |
