 |
|
An easy one here. For three days, I have been trying to emerge mozilla. I've done "emerge mozilla" and "emerge net-www/mozilla" and it can't find a match. I've rsync'd before emerging. It's me, right? Tell me it's me. Can any of you do a "pretend" on this to see if you can? I'm baffled.

Does emerge -s mozilla output anything similar to this: | Code: | # emerge -s mozilla
[ Results for search key : mozilla ]
[ Applications found : 1 ]
* net-www/mozilla
Latest version Available: 1.0-r3
Latest version Installed: 1.0-r2
Homepage: http://www.mozilla.org
Description:
The Mozilla Web Browser |

Yes, I get:
bash-2.05a# emerge -s mozilla
[ Results for search key : mozilla ]
[ Applications found : 1 ]
* net-www/mozilla
Latest version Available: 1.0-r3
Latest version Installed: [ Not Installed ]
Homepage: http://www.mozilla.org
Description:
The Mozilla Web Browser
When I "emerge mozilla" I get:
Calculating dependencies |
!!! Error: couldn't find match for : in net-www/mozilla-1.0-r3
BTW, I can emerge other programs, just not mozilla. Thanks for quick reply.

Does the following work (the ebuild file itself exists right)? | Code: | | emerge /usr/portage/net-www/mozilla/mozilla-1.0-r3.ebuild -p |
Have you done an emerge --clean rsync recently? Maybe you have something screwy in your Portage tree.

I did an "emerge --clean rsync" and it deleted the old tree and built another. I then:
bash-2.05a# emerge /usr/portage/net-www/mozilla/mozilla-1.0-r3.ebuild -p
Results:
These are the packages that I would merge, in order.

!!! Error: couldn't find match for : in net-www/mozilla-1.0-r3
I just emerged bzflag without any trouble.

Any unusual USE flags? Have you ever had any previous version of Mozilla installed on this machine before?

No mozilla before. I just built this last Satuday. I'm just using the flags that came with the stage3 tarball and am using Portage version 1.9.10.
Flags:
USE="3dnow apm arts avi berkdb crypt cups encode gdbm gif gpm gtk imlib ipv6 java jpeg kde libg++ libwww mikmod mmx motif mpeg ncurses nls oggvorbis opengl pam pdflib png python qt qtmt quicktime readline sdl slang spell ssl svga tcpd truetype X xml2 xmms xv"

Well, I just did a little different syntax of "emerge sync --clean" with same results for mozilla. I went ahead and emerged qtella as that's a good killer app just to make sure it was working. <BLOP!> ...the sound of one's head banging against a wall...

May I suggest a portage update? I am running 2.0.13 here.

Have you checked in your /usr/portage/profiles/package.mask to see if it somehow got masked?

If it was masked, emerge -s would show an earlier version. Also, note the line:
| Code: | | !!! Error: couldn't find match for : in net-www/mozilla-1.0-r3 |
If you look at other missing dependencies error messages, they take this form:
| Code: | | !!! Error: couldn't find match for =silly-people/yourmom-2.0 in silly-people/you-1.6-r4 |
Thus, it seems Portage thinks mozilla depends on ":"... in short, it's not a masking thing.

I summarily withdraw the inquiry and yield my time to the floor.

Here's a portion of the mask file concerning mozilla:
# These ones are untested, and introduce new stuff
# azarah - 28 May 2002
=x11-base/xfree-4.2.0-r11
#=net-www/mozilla-1.0-r2
=net-www/mozilla-1.0_rc3-r2
# This is the gtk2 branch of our test-stuff.
# Spider - 28 May 2002
=net-www/mozilla-1.0_rc3-r50
=net-www/mozilla-1.0_rc3-r51
if I'm seeing this right, masking isn't the problem. Hmmm, new portage version.....something to consider....

Try this:
| Code: | | # emerge -u portage |
That'll bring you from 1.9.10 (which is old!) to 2.0.13, and might fix your problem.

Getting the new Portage solved my problems. Shoot, I would have thought it would have been in the tarball I downloaded when I compiled the system, but no matter. It works. Thanks for all the help, fellas.
