seems unlikely, we need more info than this really. I will give out more info on request... no seriously, what other info would be useful? This bug mystifies me as well... seems to be a qpkg bug If it was only a qpkg bug then why would emerge -uvpD world want to install gimp-1.2.5? Can someone tell me what I have installed that requires gimp-1.2.5? can you run the following command and post the output here? find /var/db/pkg -name "*DEPEND"|xargs grep gimp A few weeks ago I just removed gimp-2.0.0 and the problem went away. The problem didn't return when I re-installed gimp-2.0.0 either. But still it WAS a problem and a rather annoying one. I wish I hadn't fixed it. bash-2.05b# find /var/db/pkg -name "*DEPEND"|xargs grep gimp /var/db/pkg/media-gfx/gimp-2.0.0/RDEPEND: gimpprint? ( =media-gfx/gimp-print-4.2* ) /var/db/pkg/media-gfx/gimp-2.0.0/DEPEND: gimpprint? ( =media-gfx/gimp-print-4.2* ) I've the same problem here. After the emerge of gimp-2.0.0 'emerge -uU world' would install gimp-1.2.5 bash-2.05b$ find /var/db/pkg -name "*DEPEND" | xargs grep gimp /var/db/pkg/media-gfx/gimp-2.0.0/RDEPEND: gimpprint? ( =media-gfx/gimp-print-4.2* ) /var/db/pkg/media-gfx/gimp-2.0.0/DEPEND: gimpprint? ( =media-gfx/gimp-print-4.2* ) The problem has something to do with /usr/share/gimp. So to install GIMP-2.0.0, you must first unmerge GIMP-1.2.5 _and_ delete /usr/share/gimp or else GIMP-1.2.5 will still hold the GIMP package name and the command 'gimp' wont start 2.0.0. I don't even have had gimp 1.2.5 installed. this tool is deprecated |
