tdb, talloc, samba Collision...

[rkrenzis]

All,

I updated portage this morning and went to go check for available updates. I referenced this article: https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-805011.html and basically removed tdb, talloc, and samba. I attemped to re-merge samba however, I am still greeted with the collision between tdb and talloc. Ideas?


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

!!! Enabling --newuse and --update might solve this conflict.

The following USE changes are necessary to proceed:

Thanks.

It told what you need to do.

DUH! Of course (facepalm!) ...thanks for pointing out the obvious. I must have been tired and not seen that.

In my /etc/make.conf I had -threads set in the USE flags. I have no idea why it was set there. It was promptly removed.
Then I performed a emerge -uDN world

Thanks so much for the push into the right direction. Looking at grnscrn for too long can cause temporary blindness!
