build.log

When TeXLive is being upgraded from 2021 to 2023, an "Undefined control sequence" error will occur when dev-texlive/texlive-xetex-2023_p69452 is being built.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Ensure TeXLive 2023 packages are masked, or their keywords are not accepted
2. emerge dev-texlive/texlive-{latexextra,xetex}
3. Unmask and accept keywords for TeXLive 2023 packages
4. emerge --update --newuse --deep @world
   - In the process, some packages may fail to upgrade due to file collisions.  I would use 'emerge --unmerge' to uninstall any TeXLive 2021 packages involved in the collisions and retry, until dev-texlive/texlive-xetex-2023_p69452 is ready to build.

Comment 3 Florian Schmaus gentoo-dev 2024-03-16 21:14:36 UTC
I wonder if this is a missing RDEPEND on >=dev-texlive/texlive-latex-2023.

@leo3418 could you see if emerging texlive-xetex-2023 succeeds if texlive-latex-2023 is installed?

I just tried to upgrade from 2021 to 2023 again, installing texlive-latex-2023 before texlive-xetex-2023.  Ended up with exactly the same error.

In my first attempt, texlive-latex-2023 was also installed already.  Attachment 887723 [details] shows:

# emerge --pretend --verbose @installed | sort

List of installed packages (Successful upgrade)

FWIW, if only texlive-xetex is added to @world and texlive-latexextra is not, I can successfully upgrade from texlive-xetex-2021 to 2023.

In this case, texlive-xetex-2023 would be built with texlive-latex-2021.  In other words, it seems that texlive-xetex-2023 can be built successfully with texlive-latex-2021 but cannot be built with texlive-latex-2023.

Comment 6 Andrew Ammerlaan gentoo-dev 2024-03-24 18:28:54 UTC
I resolved the problem with
emerge -C dev-texlive/texlive-xetex
emerge -1 dev-texlive/texlive-latexextra
emerge -1 dev-texlive/texlive-xetex

I'm pretty sure the problem occurs because there is a mismatch between the versions of texlive-latex and texlive-latexextra during the upgrade.

Emerge upgrades the packages in this (wrong) order because the texlive-latexextra ebuild has the blocker !<dev-texlive/texlive-xetex-2023. I think we may be able to resolve the problem by enforcing a version match between texlive-latex and texlive-latexextra with a RDEPEND on ~dev-texlive/texlive-latex in dev-texlive/texlive-latexextra.
