Description Michał Górny archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2014-05-06 05:46:29 UTC
Long story short, I have upgraded my xorg to -9999, found out it doesn't work and wanted to install the release versions back. So I removed the unmask entry and run:

  emerge -1vDtuNk @world

It reinstalled (and sometimes rebuilt) most of the X11 packages although it omitted xorg-server and drivers. So I tried:

  emerge -1vk xorg-server

Interesting enough, this resulted in *empty list*. While normally this would at least reinstall the binary package in question.

I think this can has something to do with subslots. All drivers slot-depend on xorg-server, and reinstalling xorg-server (without -k) pulled them in for a rebuild.

I should also note that I'm talking about small -k (--usepkg) and not -K (--usepkgonly) :).
