Description Maxi Combina 2007-04-11 19:59:39 UTC

I have just installed gentoo in an x86 system. I used the 2006.1 live CD. I did not mask or unmasked any package.
After installing, I booted my new system, did a "emerge --sync". Then, I wanted to "emerge -vaDN world" and it turns out to be impossible! Here is the output:

emerge: there are no ebuilds to satisfy <"sys-apps/dbus-0.90"
(dependency required by "gnome-base/gnome-vfs-2.16.3" [ebuild])

and "eix dbus" shows that the *only* two available versions of dbus are 1.0.2-r1 and 1.0.2-r2.

Is there any way to workaround this??

Reproducible: Always

emerge -C dbus

If I "emerge -C dbus", will I be able to have dbus later? I mean, unmerging dbus really is the solution?

Uhm? Of course you can emerge dbus at any time, this ebuild depends on either 
>=dev-libs/dbus-glib-0.71 or on <sys-apps/dbus-0.90 (which doesn't exist any more).
