User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1; .NET CLR 1.1.4322; InfoPath.1) Build Identifier: Having got a speakup-enabled version of gentoo working I wanted to emerge gnopernicus and hal was a dependency. In /usr/src I have a linux and linux- 2.6.17r8 directory trees. Emerge went quite far into installing and building packages and failed either to install a configuration file and/or point at a useable configuration file before the error with hal had happened. I thought portage was supposed to be able to do automated installs and to figure some of this stuff out. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. 1) do networkless advanced install and enable a speakup synthesizer I used ltlk on grub command line speakup_synth=ltlk speakup_ser=0 nox acpi=force 2) do emerge --sync 3) do emerge --update --newuse --deep world 4) do emerge gnopernicus Actual Results: a broken emerge failed dependency was hal Expected Results: 1) install useable configuration file, 2) locate useable configuration file, 3) use useable configuration
Not a portage issue.
Plus reopen with some real errors, not clear at all what do you mean.
