NVIDIA will split the VDPAU library from the driver package. Gentoo should have a separate package as well. More info can be found at: http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=138880 and https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-180/+bug/432172. Thanks. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce:
Oh yeah, as I was discussing with scarabeus on #gentoo-desktop a few ours ago, i made an ebuild for it. By design incompatible with actual nvidia-drivers ebuild. Should new USE flags be added to nvidia-drivers ? what about the transition period ? I'll attach the ebuild.
Created attachment 205060 [details] ebuild for a new x11-libs/libvdpau package
What is in portage right now, doesn't work at all. It contains a lot of blockers using >= But what the auther really meant, was probably only =package-ver* instead of >=package-ver.

Everyone needs to emerge --sync, the issues have been fixed hours ago. The blockers and the file collisions were live for less than 2 sync cycles.
ver 190 drivers are masked. And with nvidia-drivers-180.60 I still get the same: =x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-180.60 ("=x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-180.60" is blocking x11-libs/libvdpau-0.2)

how come is not masked? http://packages.gentoo.org/package/x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers pages states it masked.
(In reply to comment #10) > how come is not masked? > http://packages.gentoo.org/package/x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers pages states it > masked. > It clearly shows it as "unstable" and not "masked". For getting those packages read the portage man page via "man portage" and look for the package.keywords section. If you want a nvidia-drivers version that supports it to go stable, search bugzilla.
