Description Andrei Ivanov 2002-05-30 03:49:47 UTC
I did an emerge --clean rsync, and then emerge --pretend --update world, and I get: Calculating world dependencies \ !!! Error: couldn't find match for virtual/opengl in media-sound/xmms-1.2.7-r6  This has been happening for a couple of days, and I can't seem to find the solution. I have xmms and opengl in my USE flags, and I did emerge previous versions of xmms, so there must be something wrong with the ebuild file.

what does your /var/cache/edb/virtuals file have to say about that?
Comment 2 Andrei Ivanov 2002-05-31 15:03:08 UTC
/var/cache/edb/virtuals says:

virtual/opengl media-libs/mesa media-video/nvidia-glx x11-base/xfree

I did an emerge search mesa, and the response was:
[ Results for search key : mesa ]
[ Applications found : 0 ]

, but then I did an qpkg -l mesa, and it seems I have mesa-3.4.2
installed.
I also have nvidia-glx 1.0.2880 and xfree 4.2.0-r9.
Comment 3 Andrei Ivanov 2002-06-01 10:23:16 UTC
I have deleted the line requiring virtual/opengl from the xmms ebuild file, and now the message is:  Calculating world dependencies \ !!! Error: couldn't find match for virtual/glu in x11-libs/qt-3.0.4.1-r1
Comment 4 SpanKY gentoo-dev 2002-06-03 19:31:59 UTC
weird that you have 'mesa' in your virtual/opengl ...  
 
virtual/opengl media-video/nvidia-glx x11-base/xfree 
 
replace with that line in your virtual dir, emerge rsync, then see what happens 
when pretending to update your world 
Comment 5 Andrei Ivanov 2002-06-04 02:14:19 UTC
It seems it all worked out just by emerge -d xmms.
I don't know why, but it just worked. And now it works to 
update --pretend --update world.
Anyway it's just weird to do an emerge search mesa, and emerge not to find it, 
although I have mesa installed, just because mesa is masked.

Thanks for all your help.
