Ok, this REALLY sucks.
The Xen ebuild busted my Portage again.
This time it's really screwed.
My automatic updates crash, which is not good.
Here's output from emerge -Dp world.
================================================
# emerge -Dp world
These are the packages that I would merge, in order:
Calculating world dependencies -
emerge: there are no ebuilds to satisfy "=app-emulation/xen-3.0.1".
(dependency required by "sys-kernel/xen-sources-2.6.12.6-r2" [ebuild])
!!! Problem resolving dependencies for sys-fs/evms
!!! Depgraph creation failed.
================================================
Gah... Is there any way we could stop breaking Portage please?
Oh, and sorry if I seem worked up.
I'm on a tight schedule, and I'm a bit disappointed with, hmm, Portage I guess.
Based on jakub's new summary for this bug, I'm guessing that this is just a
typo?
If so, it seems that this sort of situation is something that could easily be
fixed by a pre-commit hook in the repository that stores ebuilds, which checks
that dependencies are OK before allowing the commit.
Eagerly awaiting comments :-).
Problem is xen-sources and xen versions must match to keep the hypervisor api
the same. xen-sources depends on a specific xen version, but that got bumped so
they no longer matched. It's fixed now.
Post-commit checking of syntax, depend sanity, compile etc. would be great, I
look forward to your implementation :-)
xen-3.0.1 is not in portage. xen-3.0.1-r1 is. I believe that this patch sorta
breaks things, no?
Which patch? The depend is fixed already...
The patch made to the ebuild. I needed to change it back to >= because
xen-3.0.1 isn't in portage.
# emerge -vp =xen-sources-2.6.12.6-r2
These are the packages that I would merge, in order:
Calculating dependencies ...done!
[ebuild N ] app-emulation/xen-3.0.1-r1 -custom-cflags -debug -doc -screen
0 kB
[ebuild N ] sys-kernel/xen-sources-2.6.12.6-r2 -build -doc -symlink 0 kB
[1]
I'm not seeing the breakage? The new DEPEND is xen-3.0.1*
Hmmmm, very strange. I diffed my overlay with what I thought was current (I
had just run a sync to our portage mirror), and I saw your comment added for
the patch, and I saw that >= changed to =, but no asterisk. Now, on another
machine, the asterisk is there. I specifically looked for that asterisk, too.
No idea. Ok, nothing to see here...
*** Bug 124674 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Just to confirm that it's fixed..
Updating with emerge --sync and emerge -D world works for me now.
Thanks! :-)
