Description Harris Landgarten 2005-03-29 06:42:52 UTC

Sometimes it is necessary to install nxserver-freenx and nxclient on the same machine. When done you can both host and connect to others. After the 2 emerges nx runs properly but emerge world -uvDp shows:

Calculating world dependencies ...done!
[blocks B     ] net-misc/nxclient (is blocking net-misc/nxserver-freenx-0.2.8)

Unless nxclient is unmerged, emerge world -uvD will not run.


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.emerge nxserver-freenx
2.emerge nxclient
3.emerge world -uvDp

Actual Results:  
Calculating world dependencies ...done!
[blocks B     ] net-misc/nxclient (is blocking net-misc/nxserver-freenx-0.2.8)

yes - can we do something about that? - stable ones :(

Comment 2 Jon Severinsson 2005-05-04 04:11:44 UTC

use the "commercial" useflag when installing nxserver-freenx and it will depend on nxclient to install their confilicting files instead of installing them itself.

That is:
With the "commercial" useflag nxserver-freenx depends on nxclient.
Without the "commercial" useflag nxserver-freenx is blocked by on nxclient.

This "bug" is actually a feature included in the nxserver-freenx-0.2.8 ebuild allowing you to install nxserver-freenx without requireing nxclient. 
Please close the bug

And btw, you do NOT want freenx-0.2.8, you will want freenx-0.3.1, see Bug #84299.
