 |
|
While performing the latest update world, I seem to get stuck with the last two updates:
| Code: | [ebuild U ] x11-drivers/xf86-input-evdev-2.1.3 [1.1.5-r1] USE="hal%* -debug" 0 kB
[ebuild U ] x11-drivers/ati-drivers-8.552-r2 [8.501] USE="acpi -debug" 0 kB
|
Package collisions seem to cause ati-drivers to fail. See below:
| Code: | >>> Installing x11-drivers/ati-drivers-8.552-r2
* checking 125 files for package collisions
* This package will overwrite one or more files that may belong to other
* packages (see list below). You can use a command such as `portageq
* owners / <filename>` to identify the installed package that owns a
* file. If portageq reports that only one package owns a file then do
* NOT file a bug report. A bug report is only useful if it identifies at
* least two or more packages that are known to install the same file(s).
* If a collision occurs and you can not explain where the file came from
* then you should simply ignore the collision since there is not enough
* information to determine if a real problem exists. Please do NOT file
* a bug report at http://bugs.gentoo.org unless you report exactly which
* two packages install the same file(s). Once again, please do NOT file
* a bug report unless you have completely understood the above message.
*
* Detected file collision(s):
*
* /usr/lib/opengl/ati/extensions/libglx.so
*
* Searching all installed packages for file collisions...
*
* Press Ctrl-C to Stop
*
* x11-base/xorg-server-1.5.3-r5
* /usr/lib/opengl/ati/extensions/libglx.so
*
* Package 'x11-drivers/ati-drivers-8.552-r2' NOT merged due to file
* collisions. If necessary, refer to your elog messages for the whole
* content of the above message.
>>> Failed to install x11-drivers/ati-drivers-8.552-r2, Log file:
>>> '/var/tmp/portage/x11-drivers/ati-drivers-8.552-r2/temp/build.log'
|
And I cannot skip the ati-driver and update evdev because of dependancies. Any idea where to look to fix this? All other 63 packages installed without a hitch.
The build log showed nothing helpful.

I encountered this last week but I forget how I resolved it. Try removing the old ATI driver then emerging the new one.
| Code: | | emerge -C ati-drivers |
| Code: | | emerge -av ati-drivers |
If that doesn't work, you could remove x11-drivers/xf86-video-ati (if it's installed) before installing ati-drivers, then install it again after.

OK renamed /usr/lib/opengl/ati/extensions/libglx.so to /usr/lib/opengl/ati/extensions/libglx.so.old and it installed. Usually it just overwrites if I give no input. Any idea why it caused a stop in this case?
Edit - Thanks link, just saw your post after I posted this.
