Forgot to retype, that I had a running system, which decided to update using emerge -vuane system. Got through almost everything on my laptop, but quit with the above error message in sys-libs/pam-0.78-r5. Please, don't clone bugs, it stick loads of people that are not interested in the issue to CC. I highly doubt anyone will touch the pam-0.78 mess; just do `echo "sys-libs/pam -berkdb" >> /etc/portage/package.use` Thank you for your help and solution, it worked well. I do however still have two questions: 1. For what reason does the clone option exist, when is it OK to use it, if the reason I used it for was not OK? 2. When doing an emerge -vuen system, when approx. 120 Packages are to be reemerged or updated, and the emerge process fails somewhere inbetween, what option will resume the emerge without a restart from the beginning? I have tried the emerge option -n but it doesn't help, i.e. it gets ignored. I need an emerge option that somehow registers that the package has already been reemerged and therefore doesn't need a third reemerging process. Does such an potion exist? The problem lately was that most emerge processes on my systems started to fail somewhere in between and restart the emerge from the beginning after shipping around the error package(s). I don't have absolutely new hardware, mine is mostly quite old and takes a few day to compile, which is very time consuming, when reerged processes begin to fail with messages "force recompile with removal of the .compiled file" or similiar. Thank you for your help in the past. Regards, Werner M. Mayer pam 0.78 is no more supported, please upgrade to pam 0.99. |
