Description Matthieu Rollet 2006-03-11 12:59:48 UTC 
After updating Xorg to version 7 : Several ebuilds (when trying to emerge them) want to pull in the 6.8.2-r6 monolitic version of x.org instead of the new modular 7 one.

Affected packages found :
media-video/mplayer-1.0.20060217
media-video/vlc-0.8.2-r2
(list to be completed...)

Typical emerge -av output :

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies... done!

Use vlc-0.8.4a. mplayer-1.0.20060217 is definitely fixed, so stop messing with virtuals in /etc/portage/*
Comment 2 Frederik 'Freso' S. Olesen 2006-05-24 07:20:53 UTC 
I'm not sure whether I should report a new bug or re-open this, so I'll just start with a comment:

Doing an `emerge -1NuDtpv world` (after having just upgraded to X.org and trying to upgrade further to GNOME 2.14), I get this:
[nomerge      ] x11-terms/xterm-207  USE="truetype unicode -Xaw3d -doc -toolbar"
[nomerge      ]  sys-apps/utempter-0.5.5.6
[nomerge      ]   x11-libs/cairo-1.0.4  USE="X png -doc -glitz" [1]
[ebuild  N    ]    virtual/xft-6.8  0 kB
[ebuild     UD]     x11-base/xorg-x11-6.8.2-r7 [7.0-r1] USE="bitmap-fonts% dlloader% ipv6% nls% opengl% pam% truetype-fonts% type1-fonts% xv% -cjk% -debug% -dmx% -doc% -font-server% -insecure-drivers% -minimal% -nocxx% -sdk% -static% -xprint%" 45,134 kB

(Note that the only difference between my cairo-1.0.4.ebuild and the one in the official tree is the following:
src_unpack() {
       unpack "${A}"
       cd "${S}"

       # Call PKG_PROG_PKG_CONFIG to fix other standard pkg-config calls
       epatch ${FILESDIR}/cairo-1.0.2-amd64_hardened.patch
}
)
Comment 3 Frederik 'Freso' S. Olesen 2006-05-24 16:37:43 UTC 
And my problem here was resolved by adding virtual/xft-7.0 to package.keywords.
Sorry 'bout the noise. :/
