Description Sam 2007-07-04 07:23:05 UTC
I have kde 3.5.7 emerged for testing etc. I tried to emerge knewsticker-3.5.7, but it asks for librss-3.5.7, which doesn't apparently exist in portage yet.


xushitopia xushi # emerge -a knewsticker
These are the packages that would be merged, in order:
Calculating dependencies /
emerge: there are no ebuilds to satisfy "~kde-base/librss-3.5.7".
(dependency required by "kde-base/knewsticker-3.5.7" [ebuild])

If i try and emerge any older version of knewsticker, it wants to also emerge an older version of kdelibs, which i think is a bit dangerous at the moment.

You're using the stable branch, right? If so, please review the packages descriptions you've added to /etc/portage/package.keywords because you need to keyword librss-3.5.6.
If you have a different problem, please add your emerge --info.
