• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description David Hipple 2005-01-25 09:18:45 UTC]

I try to run emerge -uDp world and i get this error
[blocks B     ] <media-video/ati-drivers-8.8.25-r3 (from pkg x11-base/opengl-update-2.1_pre1)
[ebuild     U ] sys-devel/flex-2.5.4a-r6 [2.5.4a-r5]

so I block >x11-base/opengl-update-2.0 in package.mask and run "emerge -uD world" and i get this
These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Calculating world dependencies |

section 2.2 "Software Availability" in the Gentoo Handbook.

!!! Problem with ebuild media-video/ati-drivers-8.8.25-r3
!!! Possibly a DEPEND/*DEPEND problem.

!!! Depgraph creation failed

Now it seems to be contradicting it self by saying ati-drivers need opengl-update but wont buld if they are there.

Same problem here.

At first:

!!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request:
- x11-base/opengl-update-2.1_pre1 (masked by: ~x86 keyword)

Afer unmasking:

[Comment 2 Rainer Koschnick 2005-01-25 12:13:05 UTC]

I did the following to solve the problem.

unmerge ati-drivers
unmerge opengl-update

emerge opengl-update
emerge ati-drivers

@Rainer:
Strange, but at least it worked. Thanks!

[Comment 4 David Hipple 2005-01-25 18:57:40 UTC]

I ran:
emerge unmerge ati-drivers
emerge unmerge opengl-update

emerge opengl-update
emerge ati-drivers

and emerge ati-driverserge ati-drivers
and the output is:

emerge opengl-update worked fine
?????? any other ideas?

[Comment 6 David Hipple 2005-01-25 19:03:47 UTC]

omit my last 2 post i forgot to unmask opengl-update
ya that fix worked fine. 
So it is just the ebuild?

[Comment 7 David Hipple 2005-01-26 10:53:31 UTC]

The method here works
