It may be possible to solve this problem by using package.mask to
prevent one of those packages from being selected. However, it is also
possible that conflicting dependencies exist such that they are
impossible to satisfy simultaneously.  If such a conflict exists in
the dependencies of two different packages, then those packages can
not be installed simultaneously.

Can you post this :

Code: Select all

# emerge -pv =virtual/udev-196

You need to add gudev,hwdb to your /etc/portage/package.use for a udev specify entry I think.

[aortell24]

thanks for the help man.

Code: Select all

GentooBox ~ # emerge -pv =virtual/udev-196 --autounmask-write

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

I figured it out any one else who has this problem mask virtual/udev-171.Never mind this did not fix it just gave me false hope.

[asturm]

That's actually not a good solution.

Code: Select all

virtual/udev:0

    (and 1 more with the same problems)

This tells us that you probably have some mix-up with arch/~arch keywords, and some of them are not sufficient for >=udev-196.

What should have been done is putting the next lvm2 version supporting >=udev-192 into package.keywords, then emerge -1v lvm2, then look for the next package ('and 1 more with the same problems'). Also, if you wanted to switch to eudev, you could either do that by emerging eudev-0 coming from udev-171, or eudev-1 (which needs to be unmasked too) coming from udev-196 (which seems to be installed).

[aortell24]

Thanks for the reply all I want to do is install gnome light 3.6.2 how do you guys unmask that do you use autounmask-write or what because thats all I do and I can install any other window manager or desktop with no problem but for some reason I have this problem every time I want to install a version of gnome 3.this is going on my fourth day of fighting this.

[aortell24]

I am really sorry I do not at all mean to sound rude I am just VERY frustrated. I have been at this for four days now I wasted my whole weekend now. Another question I install with my profile set to 1 and after I get a working base gentoo system I change my profile to four and use autounmask-write to unmask gnome. Could this be part of my problem? Is this a bad idea? How do you guys do this? Thanks.

Did you add the keyword changes to package.accept_keywords

[aortell24]

yes I did Thanks for the reply do you guys usually set your profile while you are installing or after the install when you are installing your desktop.

[BillWho]

yes I did Thanks for the reply do you guys usually set your profile while you are installing or after the install when you are installing your desktop.

I can't speak for others, but I set the profile before installing any packages.

What does emerge -pv =virtual/udev-196 --autounmask-write return now

[aortell24]

Sorry I am in the process of reinstalling now. I will post when I get that far again thanks .

[daktak]

I had to do the following

• unmask latest lvm2
  unmask latest bluez
  unmask latest shadow
  emerge -u1 shadow
  emerge -u1 lvm2
  emerge -u1 udev
  revdep-rebuild
  emerge -uD1 gnome-themes-standard
  emerge -uD world

[BillWho]

What did you try to emerge to get those results

What are your USE settings and ACCEPT_KEYWORDS in make.conf

[aortell24]

Gnome-light-3.6.2 is what i was trying to emerge. what ever is autounmask when autounmask-write is in my accept file.

[d2_racing]

You should run in Testing instead of Stable and then trying to unmask a lot of stuff.

[aortell24]

how do i run in testing?

[aortell24]

daktak Thanks alot man that did it. Four days I have been at this I cant thank you enuff.

[steveL]

Glad it's working now: I really don't advise running an unstable system across the board, personally. You can end up in trouble with just about any system component, and you'll just be told that's what you get for running unstable (along with help to fix it, but it's usually a similar amount of hassle to what you've been through when things do fall apart.) What it really comes down to is this:

how do you guys unmask that do you use autounmask-write or what because thats all I do

..and I use update (an emerge wrapper) for that, since it does it all within the same interface: it'll write the changes after confirmation, and show the diff of the unmask/keywords files. I say "same interface" as I can also review the list in a dialog and see what USE flags are about, and perhaps change them. It does a whole load of other stuff (mostly to do with keeping the system in shape); it helps to make day-to-day admin pretty simple.

Then again, I'm biased as I'm one of the original authors, and its current maintainer ;)

[ironBelt]

Thanks! Following this thread has exorcised my Gentoo system's demon!

This same problem has been keeping me from doing an update for a while now.

It took some time, but the keys were (to the best of my recount)
1) unmasking (package.accept_keywords) the latest versions of a bunch of packages, including lvm2 virtual/shadow bluez sys-apps/shadow
2) masking (package.mask) =virtual/udev-171, but NOT masking =sys-fs/udev-171

In fact, since OP's predicament (and frustration) sounds so similar to mine, I'll go ahead and post all my portage files. I'm on an Acer 771G running amd64 with Gnome 3. I'm slow to jump to new kernel versions b/c I'm still manually patching in code to fix the sh***y touchpad Acer decided to use for this model.
