This is a feature, not a bug. ;) You need to install =gnome-base/gnome-vfs-1* (or unmerge stuff that depends on it). Hello, is not so funny for me. I think it's a bug I unmerged the Packets then I get Dependencies could not be completely resolved due to the following required packages not being installed: =gnome-extra/gal-0.24* required by gnome-extra/gtkhtml-1.1.10-r1 <gnome-base/control-center-1.99.0 required by gnome-extra/gtkhtml-1.1.10-r1 =gnome-extra/gal-1.99.11* required by gnome-extra/gtkhtml-3.0.10-r1 Have you forgotten to run `emerge --update --deep world` prior to depclean? localhost ~ # emerge gtkhtml -pv These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies... done! [ebuild R ] gnome-extra/gtkhtml-3.10.2 USE="-debug" 0 kB You can't say on my Computer this works fine that's why all is correct. If we had different Startpoints we can get different Results. That's in my opinion a possible Bug..or not? R. R. As already said once: fix your world file and install the missing dependencies or uninstall the offending packages. You clearly have junk there and are missing some stuff in world as well. This is not --depclean bug, it merely tells you what's wrong. --depclean won't work until you've fixed the mess. I've been fighting this one since depclean was made safer. While I will admit, not being able to do a depclean is safer, I doubt that was the intention. :) Right now I get two problems 1) >=sys-apps/i2c-2.8.7 required by sys-apps/lm_sensors-2.8.7 It is true that i2c is not installed. The reason it is not installed is because it depends on a 2.4 kernel and is not needed when you use a 2.6 kernel 2) virtual/glibc required by media-libs/xvid-0.9.1 OK. This one is a bit more frustrating and is happening on all the machines I try to do a depclean on. As far as I can tell, there is no way to get virtual/glibc. I certainly don't get it by installing glibc. I'm not about to uninstall glibc as that is a one way trip. depclean really does seem to be broken. |
