partridge-macbook image # emerge gnome Calculating dependencies / !!! Multiple versions within a single package slot have been !!! pulled into the dependency graph: ('ebuild', '/', 'app-crypt/gnupg-1.4.7', 'merge') pulled in by ('ebuild', '/', 'mail-client/evolution-2.8.3-r1', 'merge') ('ebuild', '/', 'app-crypt/gnupg-2.0.3', 'merge') pulled in by ('ebuild', '/', 'mail-filter/spamassassin-3.1.8-r1', 'merge') It may be possible to solve this problem by using package.mask to prevent one of those packages from being selected. However, it is also possible that conflicting dependencies exist such that they are impossible to satisfy simultaneously. If such a conflict exists in the dependencies of two different packages, then those packages can not be installed simultaneously. For more information, see MASKED PACKAGES section in the emerge man page or refer to the Gentoo Handbook. Reproducible: Always
The following dependency of evolution-2.8.3-r1 is triggering this problem: || ( =app-crypt/gnupg-1.4* >=app-crypt/gnupg-2.0.1-r2 ) As a workaround: echo "<app-crypt/gnupg-2.0.1-r2" >> /etc/portage/package.mask
(In reply to comment #1) > The following dependency of evolution-2.8.3-r1 is triggering this problem: > > || ( =app-crypt/gnupg-1.4* >=app-crypt/gnupg-2.0.1-r2 ) I've converted that to || ( >=app-crypt/gnupg-2.0.1-r2 =app-crypt/gnupg-1.4* ) in order to avoid triggering this issue.
This bug is nearly identical to bug 159360. In cases like this where multiple choices intersect the same slot, the resolver needs to automatically prefer the choice with the highest version.
This is fixed in svn r6266:r6270.
This has been released in 2.1.2.3.
