When trying to install sonic-snap, monolithic xorg wants to be installed when modular is already installed. Steps to reproduce: - add media-video/sonic-snap to /etc/portage/package.keywords - emerge -epv sonic-snap Changing the DEPEND in the ebuild helps to fix this (but I have no machine with monolithic xorg installed): old DEPEND=" >=x11-libs/fltk-1.1.0_rc6 mpeg? ( >=media-libs/libfame-0.9.1 ) sys-libs/zlib virtual/libc virtual/x11" new DEPEND=" >=x11-libs/fltk-1.1.0_rc6 mpeg? ( >=media-libs/libfame-0.9.1 ) sys-libs/zlib virtual/libc || ( ( x11-libs/libXdmcp x11-libs/libXau x11-libs/libXrender x11-libs/libX11 x11-libs/libXext x11-libs/libXft ) virtual/x11 )" I checked the dependencies with lsof while sonic-snap was running. output of emerge --info: l-gateway ~ # emerge --info Portage 2.1.1 (default-linux/x86/2006.0, gcc-4.1.1, glibc-2.4-r3, 2.6.17-gentoo- r7 i686) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.17-gentoo-r7 i686 VIA Nehemiah Gentoo Base System version 1.12.5 Last Sync: Sat, 16 Sep 2006 06:20:01 +0000 distcc 2.18.3 i586-pc-linux-gnu (protocols 1 and 2) (default port 3632) [enabled ] ccache version 2.3 [enabled] app-admin/eselect-compiler: [Not Present] dev-java/java-config: 1.2.11-r1 dev-lang/python: 2.4.3-r1 dev-python/pycrypto: 2.0.1-r5 dev-util/ccache: 2.3 dev-util/confcache: 0.4.2-r1 sys-apps/sandbox: 1.2.17 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.59-r7 sys-devel/automake: 1.4_p6, 1.5, 1.6.3, 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r3, 1.9.6-r2 sys-devel/binutils: 2.16.1-r3 sys-devel/gcc-config: 1.3.13-r3 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.22 virtual/os-headers: 2.6.11-r5 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CBUILD="i586-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-Os -march=c3-2 -pipe -funit-at-a-time -fomit-frame-pointer -frename-reg isters -ftracer -mmmx -msse -mno-sse2 -mfpmath=sse,387 -fweb" CHOST="i586-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/3.5/env /usr/kde/3.5/share/config /usr/kde/3.5/shu tdown /usr/lib/mozilla/defaults/pref /usr/share/X11/xkb /usr/share/config /usr/s hare/texmf/dvipdfm/config/ /usr/share/texmf/dvips/config/ /usr/share/texmf/tex/g eneric/config/ /usr/share/texmf/tex/platex/config/ /usr/share/texmf/xdvi/ /var/b ind" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/env.d /etc/gconf /etc/revdep-rebuild /etc/terminfo" CXXFLAGS="-Os -march=c3-2 -pipe -funit-at-a-time -fomit-frame-pointer -frename-r egisters -ftracer -mmmx -msse -mno-sse2 -mfpmath=sse,387 -fweb" DISTDIR="/data/installs/distfiles" FEATURES="autoconfig ccache distcc distlocks parallel-fetch sfperms strict" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://ftp.easynet.nl/mirror/gentoo http://ftp.snt.utwente.nl/pu b/os/linux/gentoo" LDFLAGS="-Wl,--sort-common -Wl,-O1 -Wl,--enable-new-dtags" LINGUAS="en_GB" MAKEOPTS="-j4" PKGDIR="/data/installs/packages/l-gateway" PORTAGE_RSYNC_OPTS="--recursive --links --safe-links --perms --times --compress --force --whole-file --delete --delete-after --stats --timeout=180 --exclude='/d istfiles' --exclude='/local' --exclude='/packages'" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/data/portage" SYNC="rsync://rsync.nl.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage/" USE="x86 X aavm acpi alsa apache2 apm async berkdb boundschecking bzip2 crypt cu ps custom-cflags dba dhcp divx4linux dlloader dri dv elibc_glibc emboss encode e vms2 exif extensions fam fastbuild ffmpeg firefox font-server foomaticdb gd gdbm geoip gif gnome gpm gstreamer gtk2 httpd ieee1394 imagemagick imap imlib input_ devices_keyboard input_devices_mouse insecure-drivers ipv6 isdnlog java jikes jp eg jpeg2k kde kdeenablefinal kdexdeltas kernel_linux ldirectord libg++ libwww li nguas_en_GB linuxthreads-tls live logrotate mad memlimit mmap mmx mmxext mono mo zdevelop mozilla moznocompose moznoirc moznomail mp3 mpeg mppe-mppc mudflap mysq l nagios-dns ncurses netpbm network no-helper nodrm nojoystick nolvm1 nomirrors nosnapshots nptl nptlonly nsplugin ogg opengl pam parse-clocks pcre perl png ppd s pppd profile python qt3 qt4 quicktime readline real rtsp samba scanner sdl ser ver session spl sse ssl stream symlink syslog tcpd tiff truetype truetype-fonts udev urandom usb userland_GNU userlocales v4l video_cards_via virus-scan win32co decs xinetd xmms xorg xv xvid zlib" Unset: CTARGET, EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS, INSTALL_MASK, LANG, LC_ALL, PORTAGE_RSYNC_ EXTRA_OPTS
Use ldd on the binary, just a hint for the next time.
Fixed (thanks).
