Hi
For some time now each time I do an : emerge --update --deep --newuse world the following packages keep coming up in each case I have a more up to date version installed how can I stop this happening.

| Code: | [root] ~ # emerge --update --deep --newuse world
These are the packages that will be merged, in order:
Calculating dependencies... done!

Don't know if I understood the problem, but here my analysis of the given output:
- gtk will be rebuilt because the state of the cups USE flag has changed
- pygobject will be rebuilt because the introspection USE flag has been removed
- libunique will be upgraded from 1.1.6 to 1.1.6-r1 (and the state of the introspection USE flag has changed)
- gtk-engines-xfce will be upgraded from 3.0.0-r200 to 3.0.1-r200
So are you saying that you have already done these updates and they keep coming back, or you just want to avoid them for other reasons? |

If I do 'emerge -av pygobject gtk+ libunique gtk-engines-xfce' I get:
| Code: | [root] ~ # emerge -av gtk+ pygobject libunique gtk-engines-xfc
These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

[ebuild R ] x11-libs/gtk+-3.4.4:3 USE="X introspection (-aqua) -colord -cups -debug -examples (-packagekit) {-test} -vim-syntax (-wayland) -xinerama" 0 kB
[ebuild R ] dev-python/pygobject-3.2.2:3 USE="cairo threads -examples {-test}" 0 kB
[ebuild R ] dev-libs/libunique-3.0.2:3 USE="introspection -debug -doc {-test}" 0 kB
[ebuild R ] x11-themes/gtk-engines-xfce-3.0.1-r300:3 USE="-debug" 0 kB
Total: 4 packages (4 reinstalls), Size of downloads: 0 kB |
It looks to me that these 4 packages are all currently using later versions and that 'emerge --update --deep --newuse world' shows packages that are outdated on my
system. The problem is why do these outdated packages keep showing up.

Teegrins, percy_vere_uk!
Are you perhaps possibly maybe confusing slotted packages with each other?
The package dev-libs/libunique-1.1.6-r1:1 is not the same as dev-libs/libunique-3.0.2:3 (notice the :1 and :3).
An eix illustration ensues:
| Code: | ~ $ eix dev-libs/libunique
[U] dev-libs/libunique
Available versions:
(1) 1.1.6-r1{tbz2}
(3) 3.0.2
{dbus debug doc +introspection test}
Installed versions: 1.1.6-r1(1){tbz2}(04:42:58 20/12/12)(dbus introspection -debug -doc -test)
Homepage: http://live.gnome.org/LibUnique
Description: a library for writing single instance application |
The same goes for the x11-themes/gtk-engines-xfce-3.0.1-r200 and the x11-themes/gtk-engines-xfce-3.0.1-r300:3 packages.
The other is GTK+ version 2 while the other is GTK+ version 3, and they are slotted so they can co-exists in the same system.
That is, if I understand things correctly myself. ^^;
Also, I apologise if I completely misunderstood you, but I do hope this helps!

Thank you this explains it very well there is no need to apologize It was just down to my lack of understanding. I can now see that they are marked as slotted packages, and can now R/U these
accordingly.
Thank you also to Genone
