When I try to emerge gnome-shell,It says that: emerge: there are no ebuilds built with USE flags to satisfy ">=x11-wm/mutter-2.29.1[introspection]". !!! One of the following packages is required to complete your request: - x11-wm/mutter-2.29.1 (Change USE: +introspection) (dependency required by "gnome-base/gnome-shell-2.29.1" [ebuild]) (dependency required by "gnome-shell" [argument]) So,I add the "introspection" USE flag to /etc/make.conf and type "env-update" in terminal. Then I try to emerge gnome-shell again,but I also get the same imformation: emerge: there are no ebuilds built with USE flags to satisfy ">=x11-wm/mutter-2.29.1[introspection]". !!! One of the following packages is required to complete your request: - x11-wm/mutter-2.29.1 (Change USE: +introspection) (dependency required by "gnome-base/gnome-shell-2.29.1" [ebuild]) (dependency required by "gnome-shell" [argument]) I don't know how to make this USE flag work. From suka overlay.
Hello, first of all, u should add introspection only on a per package basis. edit or create /etc/portage/package.use with a line "x11-wm/mutter introspection". now take a look at "emerge --verbose --pretend mutter", there's a list of use flags after the package. if there were ( ) brackets around the introspection it might be package.use.mask'ed, meaning, the overlay maintainer has masked the use flag for this package. If so, and you're eager to try, edit or create a /etc/portage/profile/package.use.mask (note: .mask, not .unmask) containing a line "media-libs/clutter -introspection", meaning "remove the use mask on this package". I had to do so with gnome-overlay, which should be worth a thought if you want to use advanced gnome-stuff. Further info can be found in "man portage". You can also try my overlay at http://svn.xmw.de/gentoo-overlay/ for additional gnome-2.30 stuff, like gdm-2.30 :-).
x11-wm/mutter doesn't exist in the Portage tree so it must be in an overlay, but you provide no such information so I cannot assign the bug report to its proper maintainers. Please reopen this bug report when you have added that information. (HINT: The output of `emerge --info x11-wm/mutter' would have helped greatly, of course, but you omitted that as well.)
