Do you really expect us to support a package that hasn't been in the tree for seven months? The reason you're seeing the combination of 4.3.0 with xorg-x11 is that xfree was moved to xorg-x11. Uninstall it, and emerge a newer one. Make sure you're building xorg 6.8 or higher. If you still get this problem, reopen the bug. The specific failure you're seeing is related to a need to upgrade freetype. Donnie - No, I do NOT expect you to support anything that's no longer in portage. I'm trying to figure out how to get the machine to load the right xorg-x11-6.8.0-rX jsut like you want me to. I don't see yet what I'm doing wrong: Pro root # qpkg -I | grep xfree Pro root # Pro root # qpkg -I | grep x11 x11-base/opengl-update * x11-misc/ttmkfdir * Pro root # Tell me what to uninstall and I'll do it right away. Sorry for being so dense! Is this the stuff? Do I just delete this stuff? Or better yet should I remove this gentoox/portage overlay? I've no need for it as far as I know. this is the only thing in it. Pro portage # ls /usr/share/gentoox portage Pro portage # ls /usr/share/gentoox/portage/ x11-base Pro portage # ls /usr/share/gentoox/portage/x11-base/x xfree xorg-x11 Pro portage # ls /usr/share/gentoox/portage/x11-base/xfree/ ChangeLog Manifest files metadata.xml xfree-4.3.0-r6.ebuild Pro portage # ls /usr/share/gentoox/portage/x11-base/xorg-x11/ ChangeLog Manifest files metadata.xml xorg-x11-4.3.0-r6.ebuild Pro portage # OK - by removing the portage overlay I'm now pointing at xorg-x11-6.8 but it's masked. Possibly that's because of the kernel or something else I've got on here. Thanks for the help. This is now forward progress. I'll either upgrade the kernel (possibly a little difficult on xbox) or I'll build the masked version and see what happens. thanks! It may be masked in your package.mask in your profile, or in /etc/portage. I have no idea what xbox setups look like. Xbox setups are just x86. Gentoox, however, is totally different, it doesn't use the gentoo xbox profile and requires a load of hacks and the 'magic' update system to put them there. To install gentoo it's best to start from scratch, either with an empty partition or chroot. |
