Questions about features:
The extension dependencies on packages like thunderbird+enigmail.
Does paludis works around this correctly? Like reinstalling enigmail automatically?
This is one thing that bugs me on portage.

Are there any simple ways or tools to collect the ebuild messages and warnings in a comfortable manner? And probably have them mailed?

Is there something like --depclean on paludis?

The goal is having an automatic update system that resembles to this:
1 - "Display a list of packages that are going to be updated (something similar or better informative than the tree dependency of portage would be nice) and/or flags changes (either add or remove) .... Mail that to the admin - Do this every X days at 9am"
2 - "Start the updating process at 1am only after authorization by the admin and proper setup changes"
3 - "Collect all the warnings and messages and report if conf updates are needed .... If process failed, mail them right away, if not store them for later mailing"
4 - "Run revdep-rebuild like tool to check if nothing is broken ... again collect any warnings, messages or errors of anything that was (going to be) rebuilt and mail them together with the previous logs"
5 - "Once a week (or couple of weeks) run --depclean like command in test only mode to check for lost dependencies ... if no package is going to be removed, stop here, if not, mail this list"
6 - "If anything is to be depcleaned wait for authorization and remove them ... again mail any messages, warnings, errors..."

This is a rough schematic of what I'm looking for... Something like GUND, with less user interaction/more automated but still with proper admin control...

Any comments and/or suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks

I assume that by not mentioning the thunderbird+enigmail problem it means that it doesn't deal with it...

Thanks, I might give it a try one of these days.

Above is occuring for me as well. /etc/ld.so.conf definitely exists.

I've looked around, but may have missed something -- if so, just chalk it up as a potential FAQ.

The real FAQ mentions kde/qt downgrades being suggested by stricter dependency checking. Does this mean that every program linked against them has to be reinstalled every time the base library is, even slightly? If so, is a fix expected soon? If not, what am I doing wrong?

Is this a bug or am I getting something wrong? Paludis tries to remove my "core system utils"

Don't know how better to call those individual packages :oops:

Anyways, my the point is I do need those packages but why does paludis tries to remove them? Bug?

pussi · l33t Joined: 08 May 2004 Posts: 727 Location: Finland

afaik none of those packages are part of "system"
if you need them, add them in your world file

callx · Posted: Fri Aug 17, 2007 7:39 pm Post subject:

even grub is not part of system? :?:

My box wouldn't boot had I not read all the packages carefully..

So the only way this is supposed to be done is by adding those packages manually to world? Did you do that too? :roll:

Gee, didn't know that..

I'm pretty sure I just did a default install from the 2007.0 live cd, The GUI installer is still so buggy..

Can't seem to find a way to stop Paludis trying to install opal and ekiga (which don't build with gcc 4.20 and I have no use for anyway). In the old days I could do this with package.provided, what's the paludis way of telling it I don't want them? thanks
