Description Simon Stelling (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-04-07 10:08:28 UTC
When I try to do a emerge -up gnome on my amd64-box, I'm getting this error:

 emerge -u gnome
 
Calculating dependencies |
!!! all ebuilds that could satisfy ">=media-plugins/gst-plugins-alsa-0.8.0" have been masked.
!!! possible candidates are:
- media-plugins/gst-plugins-alsa-0.8.0 (masked by: missing keyword)
 
!!! Error calculating dependencies. Please correct.


This happens also if I try to do a 'emerge -u world':

Calculating world dependencies -
!!! all ebuilds that could satisfy ">=media-plugins/gst-plugins-alsa-0.8.0" have been masked.
!!! possible candidates are:
- media-plugins/gst-plugins-alsa-0.8.0 (masked by: missing keyword)
 
!!! Problem with ebuild gnome-base/gnome-2.6
!!! Possibly a DEPEND/*DEPEND problem.
 
!!! Depgraph creation failed.

So I can't even update my system without using USE="-alsa -esd". 

My ACCEPT_KEYWORDS is set to "~amd64", so most packages should not be masked.



Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge -u gnome or emerge -u world
Actual Results:  
the error message above appears.

Expected Results:  
gnome should be updated to version 2.6

a workaround i found is: using USE="-alsa -esd" emerge -u gnome

ayanami root # emerge -p gst-plugins-alsa gst-plugins-esd
 
These are the packages that I would merge, in order:
 
Calculating dependencies ...done!
[ebuild   R   ] media-plugins/gst-plugins-alsa-0.8.0
[ebuild  N    ] media-plugins/gst-plugins-esd-0.8.0


keywords were added to these on amd64 a while ago. emerge sync and try again.
