Version 1.1.9.9 of splashutils works for me. Because the package is actually masked, you have to do the following steps before, or you will crash your portage tree. First you have to check, if you have the needed files in /etc/portage/. if not, then do this from the command-line: # touch /etc/portage/package.unmask # touch /etc/portage/package.keywords then you have to enter this on the command-line. # echo ">=media-gfx/splashutils-1.1.9.9" >> /etc/portage/package.unmask # echo "media-gfx/splashutils" >> /etc/portage/package.keywords # emerge splashutils if the luck is on your side, the emerge will finish without any errors. This fix works for my kernel (2.6.12-gentoo-r9). I don't have it tested with other kernel-versions yet. Martin. |
