Description David Carlos Manuelda 2006-02-24 19:24:49 UTC
This is one:
emerge kopete -p

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Calculating dependencies

!!! The short ebuild name "kopete" is ambiguous.  Please specify
!!! one of the following fully-qualified ebuild names instead:

    kde-base/kopete
    net-im/kopete

And this is another:
emerge -p superkaramba

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Calculating dependencies

!!! The short ebuild name "superkaramba" is ambiguous.  Please specify
!!! one of the following fully-qualified ebuild names instead:

    kde-base/superkaramba
    x11-misc/superkaramba

NOTE: kde-base/superkaramba is ~amd64 masked and x11-misc/superkaramba isn't.. and it works good (x11-misc/superkaramba is what I tested).

What are you asking for here? If all are masked but one, automatically select that one?

Please, clarify what you mean.

Bad idea IMHO. Portage should not guess and rather ask for proper input (as it does now). Might produce highly unexpected results otherwise - e.g. app-misc/git vs. dev-util/git.
Comment 3 David Carlos Manuelda 2006-02-25 08:47:41 UTC
In case of superkaramba I just notified that isn't same packet (same functions, but slightly different) but, isn't possible that net-im/kopete and kde-base/kopete are really the same ebuild with different names? (I was asking for confirming and possibly resolving this case)

Closing due to old age
