 Posted: Sat Jan 04, 2003 8:00 pm Post subject: ebuild dependencies |
 |
|
I have a rather generic portage related question. In sytuation #1:
| Code: |
emerge -p app-games/falconseye
[ N ] libsdl-X.X.X
[ N ] falconseye-X.X.X
|
Which is fine. The falconseye game will be recorded in the world file and since it was compiled using this particular version of SDL it should not be updated until the program dependent on it is updated.
But there is sytuation #2:
| Code: |
emerge -p kde
[ N ] kdelibs-x-x-x
[ N ] kdebase-x-x-x
[ N ] kdeartwork-x-x-x
....... etc etc etc
|
In this case, if tomorrow the maintainer of the KDE ebuilds finds a new patch for kdelibs that fixes some nasty bug, the users will not know about it, since kdelibs was not recorded in the world file, since it was considered a dependency of kde ebuild. On the other hand, manually emerging every package for something like Gnome can be a real pain. Is there a solution?[/url]

| Code: |
emerge -u --deep world
|
This will update not only world, but also the dependencies.

Thank you for the reply. I didn't know about this option in portage, it was not in Gentoo 1.2.

--deep entered the world in Portage 2.0.37, and it was the default for one brief shining moment. See Portage 2.0.37 for background.
