Bug 211024 – =kde-base/kdebase-3.5* (is blocking kde-base/kdeprint-3.5.9)

• Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 210942
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Lebon Sylvain 2008-02-21 19:38:39 UTC]

I know at least two packages with problems: kviewshell and kpdf but I think all the kdeprint rdepend packages.

Error:
[CODE]
sudo emerge kpdf 

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies... done!
[ebuild  N    ] app-text/psutils-1.17  61 kB
[ebuild  N    ] kde-base/kdeprint-3.5.9  USE="arts cups kde xinerama -debug -kdeenablefinal -kdehiddenvisibility" 0 kB

section of the Gentoo Linux x86 Handbook (architecture is irrelevant):

[/CODE]

Solution:
ebuild error:
[CODE]
RDEPEND="${DEPEND}
   >=kde-base/kdeprint-${PV}:${SLOT}"
[/CODE]

ebuild corrected or at least working:
[CODE]
RDEPEND="${DEPEND}
    $(deprange-dual $PV $MAXKDEVER kde-base/kdeprint)"
[/CODE]

Thanks for your time,
Sylvain

Errr, there's nothing wrong with the syntax; emerge --sync please.

So I don't understand. I just sync again and then my modified ebuilds has been changed with the server's ones and the errors came back.

I just took from the 3.5.8 ebuilds the rdepend line which corrected my bug.

3.5.9
[BUG]
RDEPEND="${DEPEND}
   >=kde-base/kdeprint-${PV}:${SLOT}"
[/BUG]

3.5.8
[NOBUG]
RDEPEND="${DEPEND}
    $(deprange-dual $PV $MAXKDEVER kde-base/kdeprint)"
[/NOBUG]

Sorry if I make you using your time. Thanks

Once again... your problem is not anywhere in kpdf nor kviewshell; your whole problem is that a kdebase dependency has been added to kdelibs (see Bug 136087). It's been already removed again, so you should emerge --sync with a less outdated mirror.

Beyond this, it shows that the whole deprange stuff is pretty much busted and working incorrectly.

See previous comments by Jakub.
