And I have no idea why you would use package.provided to avoid installing a package. package.provided was supposed to be your way of telling portage that you really had something installed (that portage didn't know about) that provided the stuff that the package in question provided. If you just didn't want the package to be installed you would've done the same script as above put change the file to /etc/portage/package.mask |

Howdy folks,
everything runs smoothly with paludis. No hassles, no problems, big thanks for this piece of software.
Has anybody removed portage on a productive box? Any experience with that, any hassles?
I use paludis since | Code: | 1177865871: Started emerge on: Apr 29, 2007 18:57:51
1177865871: *** emerge --alphabetical paludis
1177865896: >>> emerge (1 of 1) sys-apps/paludis-0.22.2 to /
|
and no problems(the real ones) ever since. |

otherwise iirc there is no progress.

did you try python-updater -P paludis or didn't that work either? |

Nope, afraid I missed that option, but now I know for next time, thanks  |

| the broken bash version has been masked, downgrade to the latest unmasked and all is well. you'll probably need to use portage. |

| Code: | emerge -av bash
These are the packages that would be merged, in order:
!!! All ebuilds that could satisfy "bash" have been masked.
!!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request:
- app-shells/bash-3.2_p17 (masked by: corruption)
- app-shells/bash-3.2_p17-r1 (masked by: corruption)
- app-shells/bash-2.05b-r11 (masked by: corruption)
- app-shells/bash-3.0-r12 (masked by: corruption)
- app-shells/bash-3.1_p17 (masked by: corruption)
- app-shells/bash-3.0-r14 (masked by: corruption)
- app-shells/bash-3.0-r13 (masked by: corruption)
- app-shells/bash-3.2_p25 (masked by: package.mask)
For more information, see MASKED PACKAGES section in the emerge man page or
refer to the Gentoo Handbook.

Help?
Paludis won't install anything now either.
EDIT: It seems I have no bash...
| Code: | which bash
which: no bash in (/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin)
|
Time to get a stage3 tarball I guess |

You don't need to use a stage3 tarball.
You're probably getting corruption because paludis and portage don't work together. You'll likely have to remove the ".cache" directory inside your portage tree then do an "emerge --metadata" then you should be all set to re-install and older version of bash via emerge.
And remember that the version you masked needs to be added to /etc/portage/package.mask since obviously portage doesn't read paludis directories. |

Hmm, don't think that would have worked, because I made a mistake.
eix reported both bash-3.2_p17-r1 and bash-3.2_p25 as being installed, so without thinking too much I unmerged bash-3.2_p25... no more bash
So I got bash and sh from the stage3 tarball to get enough functionality to rebuild bash... not sure of the right way to do it, but that seems to have worked. |

|
|
I'm running paludis on four computers, and they're all pretty much updated at the same time. One of them has started giving me trouble. Paludis fails after "Starting builtin_loadenv", without giving any clear indication what went wrong, no matter what I try to install. I tried reinstalling paludis from portage (and then rebuilding the installed cache), and I was able to do that succesfully, but it didn't fix the problem. Does anybody have any idea what might be going on here, or how to get more info about error? I've tried the debug log level, and other than dumping all of the environment variables, it doesn't add anything that clarifies the cause of the problem.
| Code: | /usr/libexec/paludis/ebuild.bash@1188092342: [DEBUG.EBUILD] Loading bashrc file /etc/paludis/bashrc (from ?)

Urgh, now i'm seeing it on my laptop. So far, one amd64 system can still build, two x86 can't. :/.

I'm pretty sure it would've worked perfectly. Even if you were currently running a bash shell and uninstalled bash your currently running shell would run fine (though if you ran any scripts that had "#!/bin/bash" they'd obviously fail).
| Quote: | | So I got bash and sh from the stage3 tarball to get enough functionality to rebuild bash... not sure of the right way to do it, but that seems to have worked. |
I assumed you meant you were gonna unpack the whole stage3 tarball which would've overwritten a lot of stuff that was newer. But your method would work fine.
Plus, it was probably quicker than my suggestion. |

Thanks for the suggestions, yeah, that was the problem I was having. It was trying to run a script and there was no /bin/sh to run it with, and if there had been there would've been no /bin/bash either.
But bash is rebuilt and paludis is updating my system again 
Only problem I've had is that it insisted on getting pax-utils-0.1.16.tar.bz2 from my default mirror, and not running any checksums on it as there was no digest, but the ebuild refers to http://wh0rd.org/pax-utils-0.1.16.tar.bz2. Which works, but the mirrored version was different or corrupt, and wouldn't build. |

That's because your default mirror is ALWAYS used first. That's by design.
The problem isn't paludis (portage would have the same problem btw); the problem is that you have a borked default mirror.
The only difference is that portage will try to redownload the file and not simply fail, but in the case of having a bad default mirror it'll redownload that file non-stop (and each time download the bad file then try again). |

But when I tried emerging it with portage, it fetched the right file for me, without trying my default mirror first. That's how I found what was going wrong. Though yes, my default mirror must have borked that file. |

My guess is that /etc/make.conf, /etc/portage/mirrors, or both specify a different default mirror than you have in /etc/paludis/mirrors.conf |

Is there some altarnative to "quickpkg" working with paludis? Or can I use quickpkg?
My problem is following. I am using compiz-fusion from xeffects overlay and before updating I want to backup my current compiz-fusion installation just in case. If somethig is not working after compiz update I am downgrading to backup.
How to do this with paludis?
Thanks! |
