 Posted: Thu Nov 16, 2006 12:05 am Post subject: [sane-backends] - Bug in portage-2.1.2_rc1-r7? - (Not valid) |
 |
|
I've always had SANE_BACKENDS="epson" in my make.conf.
Tonight I emerged sys-apps/portage-2.1.2_rc1-r7 after a sync, and it seems that the sane use flags stuff is now not aware of that variable.
| Code: |
# emerge -puDvtN world
These are the packages that would be merged, in reverse order:

Strange indeed.

The % indicates it's a USE flag that the package didn't support before. So since you specified --newuse (-N), it reinstalls any package that has a USE flag changed.
And portage considers USE flags that didn't exist before as being changed USE flags, even if the new flags are set as "-[newflag]"
It can't distinguish between a change in supported USE flags that you care about and ones you don't so it reinstalls with any change.
edit: though that doesn't explain the part with -sane_backends_epson%.
So it might be a combination of what I described along with portage ignoring that setting in make.conf |

I know that.
What I cant explain is why those use flags are not seen in this form and not thru the SANE_BACKENDS. For example, in xorg-server you see
| Code: |
INPUT_DEVICES="evdev keyboard mouse -acecad -aiptek -calcomp -citron -digitaledge -dmc -dynapro -elo2300 -elographics -fpit -hyperpen -jamstudio -joystick -magellan -microtouch -mutouch -palmax -penmount -spaceorb -summa -synaptics -tek4957 -ur98 -vmmouse -void -wacom" VIDEO_CARDS="nv nvidia vesa -apm -ark -chips -cirrus -cyrix -dummy -epson -fbdev -fglrx -glint -i128 (-i740) -i810 (-impact) (-imstt) -mach64 -mga -neomagic (-newport) (-nsc) -r128 -radeon -rendition -s3 -s3virge -savage -siliconmotion -sis -sisusb (-sunbw2) (-suncg14) (-suncg3) (-suncg6) (-sunffb) (-sunleo) (-suntcx) -tdfx -tga -trident -tseng -v4l -vga -via -vmware -voodoo"
|
And not
| Code: |
USE="input_device_evdev input_device_keyboard input_device_mouse -input_device_acecad -input_device_aiptek -input_device_calcomp -input_device_citron -input_device_digitaledge -input_device_dmc -input_device_dynapro -input_device_elo2300 -input_device_elographics -input_device_fpit -input_device_hyperpen -input_device_jamstudio -input_device_joystick -input_device_magellan -input_device_microtouch -input_device_mutouch -input_device_palmax -input_device_penmount -input_device_spaceorb -input_device_summa -input_device_synaptics -input_device_tek4957 -input_device_ur98 -input_device_vmmouse -input_device_void -input_device_wacom video_card_nv video_card_nvidia video_card_vesa -video_card_apm -video_card_ark -video_card_chips -video_card_cirrus -video_card_cyrix -video_card_dummy -video_card_epson -video_card_fbdev -video_card_fglrx -video_card_glint -video_card_i128 (-video_card_i740) -video_card_i810 (-video_card_impact) (-video_card_imstt) -video_card_mach64 -video_card_mga -video_card_neomagic (-video_card_newport) (-video_card_nsc) -video_card_r128 -video_card_radeon -video_card_rendition -video_card_s3 -video_card_s3virge -video_card_savage -video_card_siliconmotion -video_card_sis -video_card_sisusb (-video_card_sunbw2) (-video_card_suncg14) (-video_card_suncg3) (-video_card_suncg6) (-video_card_sunffb) (-video_card_sunleo) (-video_card_suntcx) -video_card_tdfx -video_card_tga -video_card_trident -video_card_tseng -video_card_v4l -video_card_vga -video_card_via -video_card_vmware -video_card_voodoo"
|
Though you can see them that way if you emerge --info
| Code: |

The sane-backends stuff was the same until this latest portage update. Now, the bunch of use flags appear in USE instead of in their own section controlled by the SANE_BACKENDS variable, like they was previously.

Because the ebuild is written differently.
For instance, if you do "emerge --info" you will not see VIDEO_CARDS="whatever"
On the other hand you might see video_cards_nvidia which is the actual USE flag generated. |

Well, what I want to know is if that var is going to be deprecated or something and the new way is to specify that use flag in USE from now on. That would be exactly teh opposite way of input devices and video cards, which started as use flags and then splitted appart.
EDIT, yes, I know, I was editing the prev post to reflect that as well.
Thanks for taking the time to answer.  |

You should file a bug about this, as portage-2.1.2-rc1-r7 does not pick up any of the SANE_BACKEND options.

I will do. Right now it seems I can't reach bugzilla for any reason. So I will try later. As you say the strange point is that portage is not aware of that variable at all. And it happened right after I sync'ed and emerged that version of portage. I am totally sure that that package was not being pushed before the merge of portage-2.1.2-rc1-r7, because previously to the sync I did a -puDvN just to make sure that no update was still pending.
I just wanted to have a second opinion before posting there.
Thank you.
EDIT, bug: https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=155345
Edit, I should look what I do next time. Invalid bug, crappy overlay that I forgot about, Sorry 
Case closed. |
