Bug 589718 – mate-extra/mate-sensors-applet installs old x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers

• Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Stephan Litterst 2016-07-26 04:37:55 UTC]

Emerging of mate-extra/mate-sensors-applet results in emerging of old nvidia drivers:

emerge mate-sensors-applet
Calculating dependencies... done!
>>> Verifying ebuild manifests
>>> Running pre-merge checks for x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-340.93-r1
...

Currently installed nvidia-drivers are newer:

x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers
      Latest version available: 361.28
      Latest version installed: 361.28

mate-sensors-applet-1.10.4-r2.ebuild

Can you try this please?

[Comment 2 Adam Feldman 2016-07-26 17:58:22 UTC]

emerge -tp mate-sensors-applet would also be helpful

[Comment 3 Stephan Litterst 2016-07-27 04:47:39 UTC]

emerge -tp mate-sensors-applet

These are the packages that would be merged, in reverse order:

Calculating dependencies... done!
[ebuild  N     ] mate-extra/mate-sensors-applet-1.10.4-r1  USE="dbus libnotify lm_sensors -hddtemp" VIDEO_CARDS="nvidia -fglrx" 
[ebuild  N     ]  media-video/nvidia-settings-340.58  USE="examples" 
[ebuild     UD ]   x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-340.93-r1 [361.28]

emerge --info '=x11-drivers/nvidia-rivers-340.93-r1::gentoo'

emerge: there are no ebuilds to satisfy "=x11-drivers/nvidia-rivers-340.93-r1::gentoo".

emerge: searching for similar names...
emerge: Maybe you meant any of these: x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers, x11-drivers/ati-drivers, x11-drivers/xf86-video-vesa?

You twice managed to spell x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers incorrectly. Other than that, you should probably enable USE="static-libs tools" for x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers and then you should be all right.

[Comment 10 Stephan Litterst 2016-07-28 05:36:10 UTC]

Hi Jeroen,

Thanks for pointing to the wrong spelling.
I just copied the relevant part of the output of the messages for the nvidia-driver package. You might want to check comment 4 in this ticket.

Unfortunately I didn't realize those wrong spellings. Luckily you did :-)

I won't open a new bug on this old package as I don't use it and when I did it compiled fine and never jumped into this part of the code.
Possibly you might want to check the new package if those wrong spellings still exist.

Kind regards,

Stephan

I put "x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers static-libs tools" (without the ") in /etc/portage/package.use and now everything is fine.

Thanks for your support!
