I don't see a problem here because the package.mask file is updated. Then something's wrong with my box, sorry for the noise. Here is the solution (thanks to darkside and grobian!) in case someone else runs into similar issues. The solution assumes you've installed Gentoo in the /Gentoo directory: (1) Remove the line "SYNC=svn:// ..." from /Gentoo/etc/make.conf. If it doesn't exist, then this solution is not for you. (2) Remove the .svn directory with "rm -rf /Gentoo/usr/portage/.svn". (3) Sync with "emerge --sync". |
Since a few days, emerge complains: dev-perl/libwww-perl:0 ('ebuild', '/', u'dev-perl/libwww-perl-5.829', 'merge') conflicts with >=virtual/perl-IO-Compress-1.10 required by ('ebuild', '/', u'dev-perl/libwww-perl-5.829', 'merge') The reason is a mask defined in the profile's package.mask: # Torsten Veller <tove@gentoo.org> (17 Apr 2009) # Masks for new IO-Compress which includes # Compress-Zlib, IO-Compress-Zlib, IO-Compress-Bzip2, IO-Compress-Base perl-core/IO-Compress virtual/perl-IO-Compress >=virtual/perl-Compress-Zlib-2.017 >=virtual/perl-IO-Compress-Zlib-2.017 >=virtual/perl-IO-Compress-Bzip2-2.017 >=virtual/perl-IO-Compress-Base-2.017 # new versions >=perl-core/Compress-Raw-Zlib-2.017 >=virtual/perl-Compress-Raw-Zlib-2.017 >=perl-core/Compress-Raw-Bzip2-2.017 >=virtual/perl-Compress-Raw-Bzip2-2.017 This is probably out of date, at least the entry has been altered in my non-prefix Gentoo boxes package.mask: # Torsten Veller <tove@gentoo.org> (19 Jul 2009) # Fix your dependencies: # - IO-Compress-Zlib # - IO-Compress-Bzip2 # - IO-Compress-Base # bug #278542 perl-core/Compress-Zlib perl-core/IO-Compress-Zlib perl-core/IO-Compress-Bzip2 perl-core/IO-Compress-Base virtual/perl-Compress-Zlib virtual/perl-IO-Compress-Zlib virtual/perl-IO-Compress-Bzip2 virtual/perl-IO-Compress-Base Here's the corresponding bug: #278542 Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce:
