I think this is becouse of the move from net-ww to www-client but does not know the dependency-chain good enought to tell where the problem lies. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge sync 2. emerge world -uDav 3. Actual Results: These are the packages that I would merge, in order: Calculating world dependencies | emerge: there are no ebuilds to satisfy ">=net-www/mozilla-launcher-1.22". !!! Problem with ebuild net-www/mplayerplug-in-2.80 !!! Possibly a DEPEND/*DEPEND problem. Expected Results: list of packegs suppoesd to get updated/merged
Sync and try again. There were some problems moving packages but they should be resolved now.
I did a "emerge sync && emerge world -uDpv --newuse" today (first time since i filed this bug) and it still gives me the same message. Attached "emerge info". Yeah, GCC4 I know, but that should not make any diffrences in this case (packages from "emerge system" are compiled with GCC3.4). Profile is 2005.0 but does that make any diffrence? # emerge info Portage 2.0.51.19 (default-linux/x86/2005.0, gcc-4.0.0-beta20050319, glibc-2.3.4.20050125-r1, 2.6.11-gentoo-r4 i686) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.11-gentoo-r4 i686 Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 2.80GHz Gentoo Base System version 1.6.9 Python: dev-lang/python-2.3.4-r1 [2.3.4 (#1, Feb 13 2005, 14:01:43)] dev-lang/python: 2.3.4-r1 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.59-r6, 2.13 sys-devel/automake: 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r3, 1.5, 1.4_p6, 1.6.3, 1.9.4 sys-devel/binutils: 2.15.92.0.2-r1 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.10-r4 virtual/os-headers: 2.6.11 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CFLAGS="-pipe -O2 -march=pentium4 -fweb -fomit-frame-pointer -ftracer -fforce-addr -fprefetch-loop-arrays -ffast-math -falign-functions=4 -ftree-vectorize -ftree-vectorizer-verbose=1" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/lib/X11/xkb /usr/lib/mozilla/defaults/pref /usr/share/config /var/qmail/control" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/terminfo /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-pipe -O2 -march=pentium4 -fweb -fomit-frame-pointer -ftracer -fforce-addr -fprefetch-loop-arrays -ffast-math -falign-functions=4 -ftree-vectorize -ftree-vectorizer-verbose=1" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoaddcvs autoconfig distlocks sandbox sfperms" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://distfiles.gentoo.org http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/distributions/gentoo" LANG="sv_SE.UTF-8" LC_ALL="sv_SE.UTF-8" LDFLAGS="-Wl,-O1 -Wl,--enable-new-dtags -Wl,--sort-common -s" MAKEOPTS="-j5" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage" SYNC="rsync://rsync.europe.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="x86 X acpi alsa avi bash bash-completion berkdb bitmap-fonts bmp cdr crypt cups curl dvd dvdr eds emboss encode evo fam firefox flac foomaticdb fortran gdbm gif gimpprint gmp gnome gpm gstreamer gtk gtk2 gtkhtml hal imagemagick imlib ipv6 java joystick jpeg libg++ libwww lm_sensors mad mikmod mmx mmx2 motif moznocompose moznoirc moznomail mp3 mpeg ncurses network nls nptl nptlonly ntp nvidia offensive ogg oggvorbis opengl pam pdflib perl pic png ppds python quicktime readline real rtc sdl slang smp sox spell sse sse2 ssl svga symlink tcltk tcpd theora threads tiff timidity truetype truetype-fonts type1-fonts unicode utf8 vorbis wxwindows xml2 xmms xosd xprint xscreensaver xv xvid zlib linguas_sv" Unset: ASFLAGS, CBUILD, CTARGET
Hmm. Played around with my emerge-commando. For some reson it seems like it is the "emerge --deep" that kills it. As soon as I remove it everything works.
Please try this: rm -rf /var/cache/edb/dep/* emerge --metadata I think that should do the trick for you.
That did indeed work. Why did it not work "automatic"?
closing wrt to your last comment "That did indeed work."
