Dear maintainers, Following removal of dev-lang/ruby on ia64 in commit 4e20c67 [1], the below masks were added to profiles/arch/ia64/use.mask: # # Sergei Trofimovich <slyfox@gentoo.org> (2020-04-12) # ruby-2.7 dropped ia64 support, mask ruby in Gentoo. ruby # - gnome-extra/evolution-data-server: depends on net-libs/webkit-gtk eds # - net-libs/gnome-online-accounts: depend on net-libs/webkit-gtk gnome-online-accounts # - gnome-base/gnome-shell: depends on gnome-extra/evolution-data-server gnome-shell The masking of gnome-base/gnome-shell leads to the unfortunate situation where there isn't any GUI for GNOME 3 desktop on ia64. In the above mask list, it's noteworthy that gnome-base/gnome-shell is masked because of gnome-extra/evolution-data-server dependency. However, it turns out that gnome-extra/evolution-data-server can be built without net-libs/webkit-gtk. Indeed, the latter is required only when oauth USE flag (OAuth authentication) is set. With both gnome-online-account and oauth masked, I was able to successfully emerge gnome-extra/evolution-data-server and thus gnome-base/gnome-shell. Would you then please amend the above mask list, replacing eds mask with oauth mask and removing gnome-shell mask from the list, to ensure a working Gentoo GNOME 3 experience on ia64? # ruby-2.7 dropped ia64 support, mask ruby in Gentoo. ruby # - gnome-extra/evolution-data-server[oauth]: depends on net-libs/webkit-gtk oauth # - net-libs/gnome-online-accounts: depend on net-libs/webkit-gtk gnome-online-accounts Following this, would you please restore ia64 keywording for the following ebuilds: - gnome-base/gdm - gnome-base/gnome-light - gnome-base/gnome-shell - gnome-extra/evolution-data-server Thanks, Émeric [1] https://github.com/gentoo/gentoo/commit/4e20c67fea47b985c710b493dc583bd0dd375611#diff-aa56df2d41996245148233dcfc6bf815
Ah, nice! My apologies for overbroad dekeywording. I'll try to restore gnome-base/gnome-shell keywords back post here blockers if I encounter any.

This is thanks to https://bugs.gentoo.org/677176#c14 by leio that I've discovered this possibility.

This change does exactly that and restores keywords for the following packages: - gnome-base/gdm - gnome-base/gnome-shell - nome-extra/chrome-gnome-shell - nome-extra/evolution-data-server Reported-by: Émeric Maschino Closes: https://bugs.gentoo.org/717550 Signed-off-by: Sergei Trofimovich <slyfox@gentoo.org> gnome-base/gdm/gdm-3.34.1.ebuild | 2 +- gnome-base/gnome-shell/gnome-shell-3.34.5.ebuild | 2 +- gnome-extra/chrome-gnome-shell/chrome-gnome-shell-10-r4.ebuild | 2 +- gnome-extra/evolution-data-server/evolution-data-server-3.34.4.ebuild | 2 +- profiles/arch/ia64/package.use.mask | 3 ++- 5 files changed, 6 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-)
Restoring ~ia64 keyword would be possible also in gnome-extra/gnome-tweaks, if it was so desired.
Thanks :-) As a side note, was commit 9daa398 [1] that has deprecated most ia64 profiles related to the now gone inability to emerge gnome-shell and thus having a working GNOME 3 experience on ia64? If not, what's the proper way nowadays to have a GNOME-oriented profile on ia64? I fear that the unique default/linux/ia64/17.0 profile isn't tailored to GNOME 3 or even a desktop environment and lacks a lot of USE flags. For example, emerge @world errors on me, stating that none of the required elogind or systemd USE flag is set for gnome-base/gnome-control-center. This was previously set accordingly with the default/linux/ia64/17.0/desktop/gnome or default/linux/ia64/17.0/desktop/gnome/systemd profile.
