Latest changes on portage remove eagle-7.2.0 and doing a world update pulls in eagle-5.11.0 which will failed. Anyhow even if it would work it would be unacceptable. I blocked anything higher than 7.2.0 because that is the only version I have a licence for and I am not willing to buy a new licence at the moment.
So you say you cannot upgrade to 7.3.0? You can't even downgrade to 7.1.0? AFAIK are or were those licenses for the whole major version, e.g. 7.x, 6.x, 5.x.
I do not want to downgrade to anything, I want to keep using the version I paid for.
Please answer my questions.
I allready tried, my licence for 7.2 is not valid for 7.3 I have to buy another licence for 7.3 or use the free one which cannot be used for commercial boards. I have this in the keyword file =sci-electronics/eagle-7.2.0 ~amd64 With version 7.2.0 missing it goes for 5.11.0 # dir /var/tmp/portage/sci-electronics/ total 12 drwxrwxr-x 3 portage portage 4096 1 aoû 19:49 . drwxrwxr-x 5 portage portage 4096 2 aoû 03:00 .. drwxr-xr-x 4 portage portage 4096 1 aoû 19:49 eagle-5.11.0 I am not sure why it didn't try a different one. It wouldn't be acceptable either but I don't understand why it went for the lowest number. I do not want to downgrade for any reason. Even 7.1.0 would be unacceptable. # dir /usr/portage/sci-electronics/eagle/ total 52 drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 1 aoû 19:42 . drwxr-xr-x 54 root root 4096 29 jun 13:04 .. -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 11504 11 jui 18:31 ChangeLog -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 5060 11 jui 18:31 Manifest -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 3165 11 jui 18:31 eagle-5.11.0.ebuild -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 3385 11 jui 18:31 eagle-5.12.0.ebuild -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 3319 11 jui 18:31 eagle-6.6.0.ebuild -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 3676 11 jui 18:20 eagle-7.3.0.ebuild drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 29 jun 13:04 files -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 667 19 déc 2013 metadata.xml
I don't want you to downgrade either, I just wonder why upgrading to 7.3.0 doesn't work. Can you please contact the eagle support and try to clarify that case? It would otherwise mean that we'll have to keep any further eagle release which will not work. I don't see any notice about a valid 7.2.0 license to not work on 7.3.0 as well. I am also going to remove anything <7.x soonish.
When I tried to run 7.3.0 it said that my commercial license was not valid for it.
I tried again with 7.3.0, they must have changed the binary since the time I complained to them. It now works. As to why the software number is not changed I don't know. I thought that just removing the line would allow me to update to 7.3.0, that didn't work. I had to still have the line in package.keyboards fiel. Without the package.keywords it defaults to 5.11.0
So it works with 7.3.0 from the ebuild or homepage? If the ebuild one works then I'd say this bus has been solved.
It now works. I double checked which version I had before, this was the 32 bits version. It is only recently that they have added a 64 bits version.
Alright, thanks!
