Bug 158388 – app-misc/emelfm2, media-plugins/gst-plugins-gnomevfs-0.6.4 - invalid DEPEND syntax

• Status: RESOLVED INVALID
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description N Addy 2006-12-17 09:27:33 UTC]

Not sure if this is a dup of 157734.

I'm getting errors when doing an emerge world after upgrading to portage-2.1.2_rc3-r6

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:
Calculating world dependencies /
"invalid atom: '>=x11-libs/gtk+-2.4*'"
Parent: ('installed', '/', 'app-misc/emelfm2-0.0.9-r1', 'nomerge')
>=x11-libs/gtk+-2.4*
!!! Problem resolving dependencies for app-misc/emelfm2
!!! Depgraph creation failed.

Portage and bash were the only packages I upgraded since things were last working.  Trying to revert portage back to portage-2.1.2_rc3-r5 results in this:

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:
Calculating dependencies |
Error occurred while processing media-plugins/gst-plugins-gnomevfs-0.6.4
"invalid atom: '=gst-plugins-0.6.4*'"

Note that the gst-plugins-0.6.4 package isn't even in portage any more.

That's a feature, not a bug. The ebuild dependency syntax is broken.

[Comment 2 Jakub Moc (RETIRED) 2006-12-17 09:33:38 UTC]

There's no app-misc/emelfm2 in official tree, if you installed it from some overlay, then unmerge it and fix the ebuild. Same for gst-plugins-gnomevfs.

In case you don't already know, >=x11-libs/gtk+-2.4* should be >=x11-libs/gtk+-2.4 (without the *).
