Bugzilla Bug 204265

We need exactly one implementation and one slot of virtual/motif left in the
tree. The whole slotting and motif-config idea is plain broken and needs to
die. See Bug 117057 and others wrt this issue.

Arches, please stabilize x11-libs/openmotif-2.3.0 and
x11-libs/motif-config-0.10-r2, thanks...

amd64, please don't forget 209912 when doing this openmotif version.

x86 stable

Stable for HPPA.

alpha/ia64/sparc stable

ppc stable

I note this can't be stable yet, I tried it on x86_64, it broke menus in ddd
that worked in x11-libs/openmotif-2.2.3-r9. Now any greyed out item is just a
dark grey box, instead of greyed out text.

Done, as bug 210220

Could someone explain how to eliminate openmotif-2.3.0 blocking the emerge of
the newer motif-config?

I've installed openmotif-2.3.0 (with the older version 2.2.3 still being
present) and have tried modifications to package.unmask and package.mask that
usually seem to work) but still get a blocking message when I run emerge -pv.

I need to keep 2.2.3 because an equery depends indicates a number of packages
still depend on it, e.g.:
Depends on =x11-libs/openmotif-2.2.3-r9:
app-editors/emacs-21.4-r12
app-editors/emacs-22.1-r3
app-editors/gvim-7.1.123
app-editors/xemacs-21.4.21
app-text/tetex-3.0_p1-r6
app-text/xpdf-3.02-r1
dev-lisp/cmucl-19c
media-libs/mesa-7.0.2
media-sound/xmcd-3.3.2
media-tv/xawtv-3.95-r1
sci-astronomy/xephem-3.7.2
sci-biology/clustalx-1.83-r2
sci-biology/ncbi-tools-20060507
sci-chemistry/gromacs-3.3.1-r1
sci-chemistry/molmol-2k_p2
sci-chemistry/viewmol-2.4.1
sci-electronics/electric-7.00
x11-misc/xcalendar-4.0
x11-misc/xlockmore-5.23-r1

I use a number of these packages (e.g. gvim, xawtv, clustalx, ncbi-tools,
gromacs, molmol & viewmol) and until these packages are known to work on 2.3.0
I believe I need a slotted system for openmotif.

Does anyone know whether 2.3.0 is call compatible with 2.2.3?  Is the problem
simply that the ebuilds for these packages need to be updated?

No you don't need to keep it; emerge -C \<openmotif-2.3.0; revdep-rebuild.
There's no way to eliminate the blocker as it's intended. Also please note that
this is a keywording bug and not a support forum. Thanks.

amd64 stable by ulm

amd64 stable. (I consider bug 210220 a minor issue, since it occurs only with
USE=xft. If the suggested fix works, we should go for speedy stabilisation of
2.3.0-r1.)

Openmotif-2.3.0 now has stable keywords on all of lesstif's arches.

Closing. The remaining arches may not waste their time here, but stabilise
2.3.0-r1 immediately.
