Description Geoff Madden 2011-01-18 10:53:39 UTC

trying to install amarok which requires mariadb & mysql(embedded) which appear to be incompatible ie: both can't be installed together. 
Is there a way around this little hassle !!!!!?????

have you got mysql or mariadb installed, is it installed with the embedded use flag?

looking at the deps it requires
   >=virtual/mysql-5.1
and if the embedded use flag is set requires (in addition)
   >=dev-db/mysql-5.1.50-r3[embedded] 
or
   >=dev-db/mariadb-5.1.50[embedded]

might be berter if
  >=virtual/mysql-5.1
was changed to
  !embedded? (>=virtual/mysql-5.1)

mysql is installed & it has to be updated with embedded, mariadb is not installed.
