Hi, ALL,
[EDIT]To moderators: I think this post is more belong here than in the "Desktop" forum. If you think different, feel free to move...  [/EDIT]
I just finished sync'ing my tree, and tried to upgrade GNOME.
First of, the "Upgrade" documentation on the site has only 2.18->2.20 GNOME upgrade manual. I wonder if I need some specific steps to do for 2.14->2.20 upgrade.
Also, this is what I got at the end of "emerge -pv gnome":
| Code: |
[ebuild U ] gnome-base/gnome-2.20.1 [2.14.2] USE="cdr dvdr -accessibility -cups% -esd% -ldap% -mono% (-hal%)" 0 kB
[blocks B ] <gnome-base/control-center-2.17.0 (is blocking gnome-base/libgnomekbd-2.20.0)
[blocks B ] app-crypt/gnupg (is blocking app-crypt/gnupg-1.9.20-r3)
[blocks B ] <=app-crypt/gnupg-2.0.1 (is blocking app-crypt/gnupg-2.0.7)
[blocks B ] <dev-python/pygtk-2.9 (is blocking dev-python/pygobject-2.14.0)
[blocks B ] =sys-libs/glibc-2.4* (is blocking sys-auth/consolekit-0.2.3)
|
Is it OK/safe to unmerge blocking packets? Will I be able to safely merge GNOME inside GNOME afterwards?
Thank you.

Those should all be safe to remove prior to completing the update.

That is not, upgrade sys-libs/glibc, do not attempt to remove it. The easy ways will not work and the less easy ways would just break things in ways which would be readily noticed. |

So, all I need is upgrade glibc? Or maybe upgrade the whole toolchain and compiler from 4.1.1-r1 to 4.1.2?
Thank you. |

| Either way, there are advantages and disadvantages to both approaches. Whichever you decide to to, be sure to monitor link level dependencies and rebuild packages as needed, using revdep-rebuild from app-portage/gentoolkit or another analogous system. |

Yes, but the question I'm asking here is:
Do I have to upgrade compiler and toolchain at this time, or just the glibc?
Thank you. |

| Upgrading sys-libs/glibc is required to complete the upgrade which you are conducting, upgrading the rest of the tool chain is not required, but would probably simplify later upgrades. Again, either way, other things are likely to need to be recompiled before the system is again in a fully consistent state with respect to link level dependencies. |

glibc vs. consolekit is blocking at me too, but glibc is up to date. i did not find a way out yet.
edit: for some reason i masked all glibc versions starting with 2.5 any time ago. corrected it. |

2 more questions:
1. So all I need is "emerge glibc", and that's it, right?
2. Is it safe to upgrade GNOME from GNOME?
Thank you. |

To start with, though emerge -1 glibc is preferable given that the package is already part of the system set. When performing the update, monitor link level dependencies and rebuild packages as required.

OK,
I did "emerge glibc", it updated "glibc" only. It also replaced a bunch of files.
Now I'm guessing I need to run "revdep-rebuild" in order to fix all linking dependancy, right?
Also, at the end of the merge it didn't ask to rebuild anything....
And then start upgrading GNOME...
Thank you. |

| Correct, revdep-rebuild -X might be necessary depending on when the system was last updated. |

If I just say "revdep-rebuild" will it asks for the "-X" option?
I didn't update in a long time, so I guess it's safer to just do it with "-X"...
Thank you.
[EDIT]
Reading the "man revdep-rebuild", I just run this:

I think that those 2 will be rebuild during the GNOME upgrade.
Also, both of them tries to upgrade "glib". Do I need to do anything extra in regards to this? And it looks like new GNOME is using firefox?
Thank you. |

They should be, though it is worth checking whether the others would be, if not rebuild them first, if they would be just let the update handle it.

As with other libraries, use revdep-rebuild to verify and if needs be repair link level dependency issues after upgrading the library.

It does, the rendering engine is used by several packages. |

Any suggestions on fix?

Thank you for you help.
New GNOME merged successfully.
This is what I get after it finished:
| Code: |
* Messages for package gnome-base/gnome-2.20.3:
* Note that to change windowmanager to metacity do:
* export WINDOW_MANAGER="/usr/bin/metacity"
* of course this works for all other window managers as well
*
* To take full advantage of GNOME's functionality, please emerge
* gamin, a File Alteration Monitor.
* Make sure you have inotify enabled in your kernel ( >=2.6.13 )
*
* Make sure you rc-update del famd and emerge --unmerge fam if you
* are switching from fam to gamin.
*
* If you have problems, you may want to try using fam instead.
*
*
* Add yourself to the plugdev group if you want
* automounting to work.
*
* GNU info directory index is up-to-date.
* IMPORTANT: 47 config files in '/etc' need updating.
* See the CONFIGURATION FILES section of the emerge
* man page to learn how to update config files.

Questions:
1. I don't have a "fam" on my system. Do I have to use gamin? AFAIU it's just a recomendation...
2. Where do I search for "inotify"? I have 2.6.23-r8 gentoo-sources...
3. Do I have to update "all 47" config files? I'd prefer that someone more familiar with the system itself do that. Or I could post the results of this merge one by one.
4. Also, what about all those messages that was generated with the error for the packages that was merged successfully?
Thanx again. |

It is a recommendation not a requirement, though it does allow the user interface to track the current state of files and directories instead of just presenting the last known state.

Under "File systems", specifically the options "Inotify file change notification support" and "Inotify support for userspace", enable both if you want the support described in the message you quoted.
| ONEEYEMAN wrote: | | 3. Do I have to update "all 47" config files? I'd prefer that someone more familiar with the system itself do that. Or I could post the results of this merge one by one. |
Typically only those configuration files which have been modified will need special attention when updates are available. Where the old defaults worked before the new defaults will also tend to work.
| ONEEYEMAN wrote: | | 4. Also, what about all those messages that was generated with the error for the packages that was merged successfully? |
Those messages are copies of messages which are output during the process of installing packages. They are presented to provide system administrators, in this case you, with information regarding the behavior of packages which have been installed, to document any additional procedures which are required or recommended to be performed following the installation of their respective packages and in certain cases to describe use or distribution restrictions placed on those packages. In short, that is normal and the messages should be read and acted upon as appropriate. |

Ok, I will look it up.

OK. So basically they are just to be checked and make sure everything is in order? I'll do that.
All in all, thank you for helping with the upgrade. |

Of those, the files most likely to have been modified are /etc/modules.d/alsa and /etc/conf.d/alsasound, they will probably be retained in their current forms. Any other files which have been modified should be readily recognized. Aside from that, just check to be sure that things are configured as you expect them to be.
You might find dispatch-conf is more suited to your use, given that it can do more of the mundane and repetitive work for you, allowing you to concentrate on what interests you.
