I also have the following on top of the already pasted bits of emerge output, which could probably shed some light into the last case of antlr IUSE nojava vs +java: !!! Multiple package instances within a single package slot have been pulled !!! into the dependency graph, resulting in a slot conflict: dev-java/antlr:0 ('ebuild', '/', 'dev-java/antlr-2.7.7', 'merge') pulled in by ('installed', '/', 'dev-java/gjdoc-0.7.9', 'nomerge') ('installed', '/', 'dev-java/antlr-2.7.7', 'nomerge') pulled in by @world It may be possible to solve this problem by using package.mask to prevent one of those packages from being selected. However, it is also possible that conflicting dependencies exist such that they are impossible to satisfy simultaneously. If such a conflict exists in the dependencies of two different packages, then those packages can not be installed simultaneously. For more information, see MASKED PACKAGES section in the emerge man page or refer to the Gentoo Handbook. You need use --newuse or explicitly add dev-java/antlr to the command line so that it will be reinstalled.

Well, it's not intended to claim that all of them do. It's supposed to be the chain of dependencies that pulled it in: gjdoc requires antlr, libidn requires gjdoc and so on. > antlr[java], while in reality all I need to do is re-emerge antlr (and perhaps > in this case it is fine to do it automatically?) Yes, future versions will do it automatically but for now you have to specify --newuse or add dev-java/antlr to the command line. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 249185 *** |
