I am running mostly a stable x86 system, but I have keyworded compiz ever since compiz-fusion-0.6.0 was unmasked in the tree. Now that 0.7.8 has entered ~x86, I am getting the following message upon emerging world:

"""
!!! Problem resolving dependencies for x11-wm/compiz-fusion

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating world dependencies .
!!! All ebuilds that could satisfy "~x11-wm/emerald-0.7.8" have been masked.
!!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request:
- x11-wm/emerald-0.7.8 (masked by: EAPI 2)

The current version of portage supports EAPI '1'. You must upgrade to a
newer version of portage before EAPI masked packages can be installed.
"""

I think I need to also keyword portage to pull in portage-2.2, which I am guessing supports EAPI-2. I would have done it already, but this portage is still a release candidate. Is it ready?

Will we be seeing lots of EAPI-2 ebuilds in the tree before the package manager goes stable?

Thanks for any input,
cybersol

I did that now. I encountered no problems (with portage 2.2_rc12). So you might try that, too. Would like to know if there is an "stable" EAPI 2 supporting portage, too.. Or when it will be available. Anyone? Another option is to use compiz 0.60 and mask 0.7.8.. no problems anymore.

EDIT: deleted by author. see other post.

WARNING: repository at /usr/local/portage is missing a repo_name entry

From the bug report, fix should be:

Code:

mkdir /usr/local/portage/profiles
echo local-repo > /usr/local/portage/profiles/repo_name

Thanks, noclear2000, for the information about the portage 2.2 release candidate working for you.

I really doubt that, portage output looks quite different, this looks more like eix output (which is a completely different tool using a cache that has probably become stale on your system)

Quote:
Tried to unmask 2.2_rc8 (but don't feel very confortable with that).

emerge portage:
emerge: there are no ebuilds to satisfy "=sys-apps/portage-2.2_rc8".

In the future when posting commands and their output, please always post the exact commands you used and the exact output (this applies to howtos as well as support requests). Because like above the posted command will not generate the posted error message (this can be really frustrating if someone tries to reproduce it).

Why is rc12 not in available versions?

See above, most likely an outdated eix cache. For authorative results please use the official tools, in this case `equery list -p sys-apps/portage`

It's also useful to use eix-sync or postsync scripts in portage to update eix-cache after emerge --sync'ing.

Do I really need xorg-server-1.5.2, or is x11-libs/libX11-1.1.5 with the xcb use flag enabled enough? emerge -p seems to think the later is enough, but I am unsure. I am currently running stable xorg-server-1.3.0.0-r6.

Thanks,

The ebuilds for compiz v0.7.8 do not compile cleanly, see bug 245078. Some patches need to be manually fetched, etc. For now, I am
sticking with compiz v0.6 .

I get the same bug, it seems compiz-0.7.8 seems to have been put in the tree without required files in the /files directory. Should this ebuild still be hard masked?

Cheers,
