Hi,


i'm having a weird conflict which looks to me like I need to reinstall existing packages with special USE flags, one with and one without qt3support...

Calculating dependencies... done!
Code:

emerge: there are no ebuilds built with USE flags to satisfy "~dev-qt/qtcore-4.8.6[aqua=,debug=,glib=,qt3support=,abi_x86_32(-)?,abi_x86_64(-)?,abi_x86_x32(-)?,abi_mips_n32(-)?,abi_mips_n64(-)?,abi_mips_o32(-)?,abi_ppc_32(-)?,abi_ppc_64(-)?,abi_s390_32(-)?,abi_s390_64(-)?]".
!!! One of the following packages is required to complete your request:
- dev-qt/qtcore-4.8.6-r2::gentoo (Change USE: +qt3support)
- dev-qt/qtgui-4.8.6-r4::gentoo (Change USE: -qt3support)
(dependency required by "dev-qt/qtgui-4.8.6-r4::gentoo" [ebuild])
(dependency required by "x11-drivers/ati-drivers-14.12-r3::gentoo[qt4]" [installed])
(dependency required by "@selected" [set])
(dependency required by "@world" [argument])


This is for an update.

Now, the existing package.use flags I have are (and I realized they are conflicting):

Code:
# required by dev-qt/qtsql-4.8.5
# required by dev-qt/qt3support-4.8.5
# required by dev-qt/qtgui-4.8.5-r4[qt3support]
# required by x11-drivers/ati-drivers-14.12-r3[qt4]
# required by x11-base/xorg-drivers-1.16[video_cards_fglrx]
# required by x11-base/xorg-server-1.16.4[xorg]
# required by x11-drivers/xf86-input-evdev-2.9.1
=dev-qt/qtcore-4.8.5-r2 qt3support


Code:
# required by dev-qt/qtgui-4.8.5-r4
# required by app-emulation/virtualbox-4.3.18[-headless,qt4]
# required by virtualbox (argument)
=dev-qt/qtcore-4.8.5-r2 -qt3support


Code:

dev-qt/qtgui qt3support gtkstyle


Code:
# required by dev-qt/qtopengl-4.8.5
# required by app-emulation/virtualbox-4.3.18[-headless,qt4,opengl]
# required by virtualbox (argument)
=dev-qt/qtgui-4.8.5-r4 -qt3support


How do I navigate out of this mess ?

Portage processes in alphabetical order, but also top-to-bottom. Try removing both flags and leting portage figure it out. Then set the flag appropriately.

The change that portage is asking for is
Code:
dev-qt/qtcore-4.8.6-r2::gentoo (Change USE: +qt3support)
or
Code:
dev-qt/qtgui-4.8.6-r4::gentoo (Change USE: -qt3support)


If anything on your system needs qt3support then change dev-qt/qtcore. If nothing on your system needs qt3support then change dev-qt/qtgui. But only change one of them not both.

qt3support is best handled globally in make.conf, not in package.use. Set it one way or the other in make.conf and accept the consequences. You probably want it on.

I recommend you think of 2 kinds of use flags: local and global. Local are the things that only affect 1 or 2 packages and may do different things on different packages like dvd or bindist. These go in package.use. Global use flags affect many packages and are fundamental (ie, they need to be all on or all off.) These go in make.conf.
