This breaks bootstrapping for me. # emerge -v linux-headers Calculating dependencies !!! All ebuilds that could satisfy "linux-headers" have been masked. !!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request: - sys-kernel/linux-headers-2.4.23_p3 (masked by: profile, -* keyword) - sys-kernel/linux-headers-2.0.40 (masked by: profile, -* keyword) - sys-kernel/linux-headers-2.4.21 (masked by: profile) - sys-kernel/linux-headers-2.6.8.1-r2 (masked by: package.mask) # <johnm@gentoo.org> (1/12/2004) # Masking all 2.6 versions of kernel packages which were originally # 2.4 only so that we can merge 2.6 with 2.4 without forcing a # mass upgrade. # this includes the headers too - sys-kernel/linux-headers-2.4.23 (masked by: profile, -* keyword) - sys-kernel/linux-headers-2.4.22 (masked by: profile) - sys-kernel/linux-headers-2.4.25 (masked by: profile, -* keyword) - sys-kernel/linux-headers-2.4.21-r1 (masked by: profile) - sys-kernel/linux-headers-2.4.26 (masked by: profile, -* keyword) - sys-kernel/linux-headers-2.4.22-r1 (masked by: profile) - sys-kernel/linux-headers-2.2.26 (masked by: profile, -* keyword) - sys-kernel/linux-headers-2.6.11 (masked by: package.mask, -* keyword) - sys-kernel/linux-headers-2.6.8.1-r4 (masked by: package.mask) For more information, see MASKED PACKAGES section in the emerge man page or section 2.2 "Software Availability" in the Gentoo Handbook. Actually, nobody should be using the 2005.0 profile. It is supposed to be the way that it is and the masks will be removed on release day. We don't support people using the profiles before the release, and if someone can't package.unmask the headers/sources themselves for testing, should they really be testing? *grin* okay, thanks. I was -trying- to get my tinderbox buildset up to work in getting a bit more testing on the 2005.0 done, appears thats not really wanted. Actually, I'm a bit miffed, but okay. glad its now documented. You can use 2005.0's profile, but only if you unmask >=linux-headers-2.5 and whatever sources. Honestly, it is a bit late on the 2005.0 stuff, as it is all completed and on its way to the mirrors. One of the main features of 2005.0 is the 2.6 headers/sources as defaults, and all the sources are being merged. You'll have gentoo-dev-sources becoming gentoo-sources-2.6 and so on... Sorry if I seemed a bit short on my earlier response, but I've had a couple bugs today dealing with 2005.0 stuff where someone filed a bug that could have been answered with a simple question, since things in 2005.0 are somewhat divergent from 2004.3 and below. its ok, I've just been building binaries for all stages in the past, and since the new one started to come, and I couldn't get hold of specs until lately (at least not official ones.) I have been hacking around on them. As-is, I'll keep building stuff against 2005.0 during the upcoming weeks. |
