Hi people,

How can i bypass this?

Code:

central htdocs # emerge -pv nvidia-legacy-drivers | more

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

That is weird.

You are trying to emerge nvidia-legacy-drivers. Apparantly the corresponding ebuild requires a non-modular xorg to be installed on your system. That's what the line <=x11-base/xorg-x11-6.9 is telling as that was the last non-modular release of xorg.

However on my system the ebuild for nvidia-legacy-drivers does NOT contain this requirement. My best guess is that you have not run an emerge -sync for a very long time. As this requirement for a non-modular xorg was only present when the switch was being made. So run an emerge --sync and see if that resolves this issue.

Of course it does: x11-base/xorg-server is part of modular Xorg.

lpx: Monolithic X isn't supported for quite a while now. Read the migration guide.

@Carlo: I hope you have noticed the <= in front of the text. That's what I was referring to.
That's a block that corresponds to blocking the modular xorg releases.
And that is something that is not present in nvidia-legacy-drivers.

ps) other option is of course that the topicstarter at some point added xorg to his package.mask.
So he/she should also check the content of the file /etc/portage/package.mask

Actually you have that exactly backwards. "<=x11-base/xorg-x11-6.9 (is blocking foo)" means that the installed version of xorg-x11 is 6.9 or below, the presence of which blocks installation of package foo.

The nvidia-legacy-drivers package requires modular X. OP needs to migrate to modular X, as Carlo noted.

Hi,

I solved the problem emerging -C xorg-x11

I am already emerging the alll packages again!

Thx

The migration to modular X is discussed in more detail in the topic "xorg-x11-6.9 -> xorg-x11-7.0-r1 everything blocked (solved)".

Moved from Portage & Programming to Duplicate Threads.
