Hi all Fore some time I had masked >=device-mapper-1.00, because it kept conflicting with udev. Now I tried to resolve this, but the conflicts remain. I tried this: emerge -C udev lvm2; emerge device-mapper; emerge udev But udev refuses to be installed: [ebuild N ] sys-fs/udev-146-r1 USE="devfs-compat extras (-selinux)" [blocks B ] sys-fs/device-mapper ("sys-fs/device-mapper" is blocking sys-fs/udev-146-r1) * Error: The above package list contains packages which cannot be * installed at the same time on the same system. ('ebuild', '/', 'sys-fs/udev-146-r1', 'merge') pulled in by udev ('installed', '/', 'sys-fs/device-mapper-1.02.28', 'nomerge') pulled in by sys-fs/device-mapper required by world Other way round: emerge -C udev device-mapper; emerge udev; emerge device-mapper Similar result: [ebuild N ] sys-fs/device-mapper-1.02.28 USE="(-selinux)" [blocks B ] sys-fs/device-mapper ("sys-fs/device-mapper" is blocking sys-fs/udev-146-r1) * Error: The above package list contains packages which cannot be * installed at the same time on the same system. ('ebuild', '/', 'sys-fs/device-mapper-1.02.28', 'merge') pulled in by device-mapper I do need device-mapper, though, and I sure need udev. Can it be that it is not possible to install the two together? Or that it is not possible to resolve the conflict? (There is bug #189294 that says that the RDPEND was introduced in order to force a device-mapper upgrade together with a certain udev upgrade. But at the moment this is just blocking, not forcing :-) Any ideas of how to go about this? At the moment I'm back to masking out >=device-mapper-1.00, but that workaround won't last forever. Thanks /markus

device-mapper was merged upstream into lvm2.
Ah, OK. Thanks.
