 Posted: Tue Oct 06, 2015 1:40 pm Post subject: --depclean want to unmerge my SVN software's dependences |
 |
|
Hello,
I have compiled Code::blocks from svn , and use
| Code: | | emerge --onlydeps codeblocks |
to solve the dependences problem by only emerging the dependence of codeblocks-13.12
Obviously, when
,portage want to unmerge my dependences because it is unaware of the codeblocks compiled by myself.
I add | Code: | | dev-util/codeblocks-13.12 |
to /etc/portage/profile/package.provided, but it seems no use.
How to inform portage not to unmerge Codeblocks's dependences when emerge --depclean?Thanks. |

You need to make sure that all of the dependencies are part of the world set. That will protect them from --depclean. Simplistically, just issuefor each dependent package.
A more elegant way to do this is to create a set called something like codeblocks-deps and make all of the codeblocks dependencies members of that set. | Code: | # mkdir -p /etc/portage/sets
cat >/etc/portage/sets/codeblocks-deps
cat1/pkg1
cat2/pkg2
...
<Ctrl-D>
emerge --noreplace @codeblocks-deps |
That way you can manage changing dependencies in one place (the /etc/portage/sets/codeblocks-deps text file).
But the very best way (although it's more work and requires more domain knowledge) is to create an ebuild for your private codeblocks version and put it in your local overlay. That way you don't need a special set or extra cruft in the world set: Portage is managing everything—including codeblocks. You can just "emerge codeblocks" and be done! 
Edit: Belatedly realized that there was a codeblocks-9999 ebuild. The 9999 version is Gentoo's standard method of indicating a "live" ebuild that pulls source directly from upstream version control (in this case, subversion). So, is there a reason you didn't use the -9999 ebuild? Is there something you get by doing your own private install?

I noticed the 9999 ebuild, but I don't know what it means until just now 
Actually I want to decide by myself what "contrib plugins" to compile.The ebuild's USE FLAGS have "contrib", but it will have all the plugins installed, hum, not that meticulous, right?
(Ah, if you have used this IDE too, you must know it. Byogames is a good plugin, I like it lol, but it seems nothing to do with an IDE
Thanks for providing so many solutions anyway, I'll consider them! |
