What's the exact error that causes the merge to abort?

Comment 2 Jens Blaesche 2004-04-09 10:39:51 UTC

emerge world -uUDp                                                                                                                                                        

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Calculating world dependencies |
!!! all ebuilds that could satisfy ">=x11-base/xfree-4.3.0-r6" have been masked.
!!! possible candidates are:
- x11-base/xfree-4.3.99.902-r2 (masked by: package.mask, ~keyword)
- x11-base/xfree-4.3.0-r6 (masked by: package.mask, ~keyword)
!!!    (dependency required by "x11-misc/synaptics-0.12.5" [ebuild])

!!! Problem with ebuild x11-misc/synaptics-0.12.5
!!! Possibly a DEPEND/*DEPEND problem.

!!! Depgraph creation failed.


i have set

"x11-misc/synaptics ~x86  in /etc/portage/packages.keywords"

and

"x11-misc/synaptics in /etc/portage/packages.unmask"

If you've removed things from package.mask, you have to deal with the consequences of that and remove everything they depend on as well.
