 Posted: Sat Nov 08, 2014 3:29 pm Post subject: Why is emerge pulling grub-0.97? |
 |
|
Hello, I changed my licenses to @FSF-APPROVED and now I'm wondering if there is any way to find out why certain packages are being pulled or downgraded or even uninstalled.
I really don't get why grub-0.97 needs to be installed in a new slot. Is anything wrong (from the FSF's viewpoint) with grub2? Why don't uninstall it then?
Also, what does the star here mean: "ABI_X86="32* (64)"?
I wonder if I'll lose any functionality when proceeding with the license changes.

| If packages are being downgraded, it usualy means newer (and already installed) versions are masked by your new settings. You can explicitly mask some version using package.mask file, remove some custom accept_keywords or... yeah, change licences you accept. The last one will most likely result in uninstalling some packagages, as several versions will ususaly have the same licence leaving no valid candidate. Or forcing a change to a fork (if it's licence is accepted). |

It's probably because you have USE=truetype set globally. |
