Calculating world dependencies /

!!! all ebuilds that could satisfy ">=sys-libs/db-4.0.14" have been masked.
!!! (dependency required by "net-nds/openldap-2.0.27" [ebuild])

is what I get :(

Any ideas how to fix this?

also I get complaints about virtual/xft not being available as a package sometimes.

Is it my setup that's crapped?

I get this same problem and db isn't in my package.mask, the only thing that mentions it is...

Code:

# <bcowan@gentoo.org> (25 Nov 2002)
# masking until db-4* are unmasked
# that way emerge -pu world works
=net-nds/openldap-2.1.9


I tried modifying my /usr/portage/profiles/default-x86-1.4/packages to read:

Code:

# ORIGINAL
#*<sys-libs/db-3.2.10
# MODIFIED
*sys-libs/db


but that didn't help either. Then I tried modifying the package.mask to read:

Code:

# <bcowan@gentoo.org> (25 Nov 2002)
# masking until db-4* are unmasked
# that way emerge -pu world works
=net-nds/openldap-2.1.9
>=ned-nds/openldap-2.0.27


Still to no avail. I'm stumped :?

Edit: Just saw a typo in my above snippit of the package.mask, which would explain why it wasn't working :) New snippit, which works:

Code:

# <bcowan@gentoo.org> (25 Nov 2002)
# masking until db-4* are unmasked
# that way emerge -pu world works
=net-nds/openldap-2.1.9
>=net-nds/openldap-2.0.27

masking the "faulty" packages fixes that - but what about the problem
with portage not finding virtual/xft - which is f.ex. found in x11-libs/pango ebuilds?

For now, I don't use pango - and can mask it - but still..
