nxserver-freenx 0.7.2 and nxclient 3.2.0 can't be installed on the same machine. They block each other. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.emerge nxserver-freenx 2.emerge nxclient 3. Actual Results: Either nxclient or nxserver-freenx can't be installed if the other has been installed already. Expected Results: Both nxserver-freenx and nxclient can be installed on the same machine at the same time.
Please try updating to nxserver-freenx-0.7.2-r2, since that version should not conflict with nxclient.
You need to set USE=nxclient for net-misc/nxserver-freenx to allow parallel installation of both packages. In fact, I've just enabled this flag by default (EAPI 1 ebuild) in nxserver-freenx-0.7.3-r3, and updated the USE flag description, as it was not clear that not setting it would prevent parallel installation of this package
Yes. When setting "USE=nxclient", both nxserver-freenx and nxclient can be installed. What about missing the USE setting in the first place when installing nxserver-freenx? That should not block nxclient from being installed later on. It makes sense to set nxclient to be default for USE. Thanks. This ticket can be closed.
