hi there, i have some problems when updating world... i uninstalled imaging to overcome the block but it did not help

[code][blocks B ] dev-python/pillow ("dev-python/pillow" is blocking dev-python/imaging-1.1.7-r2)
[blocks B ] dev-python/imaging ("dev-python/imaging" is blocking dev-python/pillow-2.0.0)

Total: 117 packages (113 upgrades, 4 new), Size of downloads: 282,470 kB
Conflict: 2 blocks (2 unsatisfied)

* Error: The above package list contains packages which cannot be

As i understand it, dev-python/pillow is replacing dev-python/imaging for python-3

To solve this, il simply removed dev-python/imaging and use dev-python/pillow and virtual/python-imaging instead.
I also had to change some of my custom ebuild, to replace dev-python/imaging by virtual/python-imaging

I'm not sure of me, but it seems to work here.

Most packages still depend on dev-python/imaging and not the virtual, as they first need to be fixed (tracker bug). In the meantime, a workaround was listed here:

sidamos: Try next versions of hplip, for ex. hplip-3.13.18.

Did you mean 3.13.8? That's the latest package that I find and it's unstable. The only stable package is 3.12.10.a
Stable packages shouldn't break other stable packages or what does "stable" mean?

There are a lot of updates to my world set that don't depend on this, but portage won't run even with the --keep-going flag. Is there some other way to update world without running an unstable printer driver?

I'm not sure if it helps, or applies in your situation but I was also having a recent fight with the pillow & imaging issue you've described in your scenario. I eventually uninstalled both dev-python/pillow and dev-python/imaging. I was then able to perform my world upgrade after which I ended up with dev-python/pillow and virtual/python-imaging instead of dev-python/imaging.

Thanks, ran into this problem as well. Hope 3.13.8 is stable (unlike 3.8.13, i.e. linux kernel...)

Tried all the things suggested. Finally unmasked hplip-3.13.8 and the blockers disappeared. I haven't tested it all out but I hope I didn't screw up hplip now.

Looks like 3.13.8 disappeared from portage and need to move on, 3.13.9 and 3.13.10 are available.

I wonder when hplip-3.13 will be stabilized ...
