Bug 141732 – dev-util/meld doesn't emerge due to unneeded dependencies

• Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 108479
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Nelson Benítez 2006-07-25 13:17:42 UTC]

Hi, right now trying to emerge meld, I get:

Calculating dependencies |
!!! All ebuilds that could satisfy ">=dev-libs/glib-2.12" have been masked.
!!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request:
- dev-libs/glib-2.12.1 (masked by: package.mask)
# Stefan Schweizer <[e-mail]> (5 Jul 2006)
# Masked to allow proper testing of the old to-be-stable versions
# Please unmask when that version is stable and cairo-1.20 unmasked

- dev-libs/glib-2.12.0 (masked by: package.mask)

For more information, see MASKED PACKAGES section in the emerge man page or
refer to the Gentoo Handbook.
(dependency required by "gnome-base/libbonobo-2.15.0" [ebuild])


After removing uneeded deps from the ebuild (pyorbit is already triggered from gnome-python and gnome-python-extras is not needed[1]) I can emerge without problem. I'll atach a patch of the changes.
