Description Joerg Schaible 2023-01-13 19:37:59 UTC
Ebuild of libproxy-0.4.18 depends on spidermonkey:68 wich is no longer available in the tree:

=============== %< ==============
$ equery d spidermonkey
 * These packages depend on spidermonkey:
net-libs/libproxy-0.4.18 (spidermonkey ? dev-lang/spidermonkey:68)
[...]
$ eix spidermonkey
[U?] dev-lang/spidermonkey
     Verfügbare Versionen:   
     (78)   78.15.0^t
     (91)   91.13.0-r1^t
     (102)  102.6.0^t
       {clang debug +jit lto test CPU_FLAGS_ARM="neon"}
     Installierte Versionen: 68.12.0-r1(68)^t(06:14:49 PM 06/15/2022)(jit -debug -test CPU_FLAGS_ARM="-neon")
     Startseite:             https://spidermonkey.dev https://firefox-source-docs.mozilla.org/js/index.html
     Beschreibung:           SpiderMonkey is Mozilla's JavaScript engine written in C and C++
=============== %< ==============

Therefore I cannot get rid of preserved libraries:

=============== %< ==============
$ sudo emerge @preserved-rebuild
Passwort: 
Calculating dependencies... done!

emerge: there are no ebuilds to satisfy "dev-lang/spidermonkey:68".
(dependency required by "@preserved-rebuild" [argument])
=============== %< ==============


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Unsure how to setup a system for a similar state, but the missing referenced version in the ebuild is ovbious.
Actual Results:  
preserved rebuild cannot resolve the deps

Expected Results:  
preserved rebuild should be successful

Actually I have spidermonkey in a different system in the world file. Anything works fine with latest version 102.

You should always do:
1. world upgrade
2. depclean
3. *then* preserved-rebuild if required (you should never need to).

libproxy's USE=spidermonkey is masked because that version of SM was vulnerable and old.
Comment 2 Joerg Schaible 2023-01-13 20:28:47 UTC
Thanks, actually I was never aware that depclean should be run before a repdev rebuild. And I have a 20 year history with Gentoo... repdev rebuild was once quite common ;-)
