• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Dick Marinus 2004-05-11 07:20:26 UTC]

emerge complains about masked dependancies

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. grep virtual/x11 /usr/portage/profiles/default-x86-2004.0/virtuals
virtual/x11                             x11-base/xorg-x11
2. grep KEYWORDS /usr/portage/x11-base/xorg-x11/xorg-x11-6.7.0.ebuild
KEYWORDS="~x86 amd64 ~ppc ~sparc ~hppa ~mips ~alpha ~ia64"
3. # emerge -Dup world

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

Calculating world dependencies \
!!! all ebuilds that could satisfy "x11-base/xorg-x11" have been masked.
!!! possible candidates are:
- x11-base/xorg-x11-6.7.0 (masked by: ~keyword)
!!!    (dependency required by "media-gfx/xloadimage-4.1-r1" [ebuild])

!!! Problem with ebuild net-mail/squirrelmail-1.4.3_rc1
!!! Possibly a DEPEND/*DEPEND problem.

!!! Depgraph creation failed.
Actual Results:  
 

Expected Results:  
please unmask xorg or reverse the virtual change...

I can confirm this bug.

rac fixed this. It looks like an accidental commit. Perhaps a CVS checkout as a portage overlay -- would be a great example of why that's not the best idea.
