Description Christian Rubbert 2002-01-07 02:25:42 UTC

gkrellmms (the xmms plugin for gkrellm) and gkrellm-volume (gkrellm OSS volume
control) are twice in the portage tree, once in x11-misc (this one builds) and
once in media-sound which fails to build:

crubbbook portage # emerge media-sound/gkrellmms 
Calculating dependencies !!! Couldn't find match for media-sound/gkrellmms;
aborting.

crubbbook portage # emerge media-sound/gkrellm-volume 
Calculating dependencies !!! Couldn't find match for media-sound/gkrellm-volume;
aborting.

There are duplicates in app-misc and x11-misc, too, which fail to build:

crubbbook portage # emerge app-misc/gkrellkam 
Calculating dependencies !!! Couldn't find match for app-misc/gkrellkam; aborting.

The other duplicates in app-misc fail to build, too. Namely these are:
gkrellm-seti gkrellmlaunch gkrellweather. I have not tried to build those in
x11-misc.

Hope this helps!

Component "Portage" should only be used for issues concerning the Portage system
(not all the ebuilds).

The reason it's there twice is because they were scattered all over the
categories. I cleaned that up a week (or so) ago. They are now all in x11-misc. 

emerge rsync -clean should remove the old versions (those that are masked and
won't get installed).
