[SOLVED: overlay] app-alternatives soft blocking

Message

der bastler · Post by **der bastler** » Sun Mar 12, 2023 2:10 pm

Although I followed the proposed migration steps for app-alternatives (2022-12-27-alternatives-introduction) I have problems updating my system.

Migrations steps:

Code: Select all

Enterprise ~ # emerge --deselect app-eselect/eselect-awk app-eselect/eselect-sh
>>> No matching atoms found in "world" favorites file...
Enterprise ~ # emerge --depclean app-eselect/eselect-awk app-eselect/eselect-sh
--- Couldn't find 'app-eselect/eselect-awk' to depclean.
--- Couldn't find 'app-eselect/eselect-sh' to depclean.
>>> No packages selected for removal by depclean
Enterprise ~ # emerge --sync

[...rsync output...]

=== Sync completed for gentoo

Performing Global Updates
(Could take a couple of minutes if you have a lot of binary packages.)
  .='update pass'  *='binary update'  #='/var/db update'  @='/var/db move'
  s='/var/db SLOT move'  %='binary move'  S='binary SLOT move'
  p='update /etc/portage/package.*'
/usr/portage/profiles/updates/1Q-2023......................



Action: sync for repo: gentoo, returned code = 0


Enterprise ~ # emerge -DNuva @world

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

Calculating dependencies... done!

emerge: there are no ebuilds to satisfy "dev-libs/icu:0/71.1=".
(dependency required by "dev-libs/libical-3.0.14-r1::gentoo" [installed])
(dependency required by "net-wireless/bluez-5.66-r1::gentoo[obex]" [ebuild])
(dependency required by "dev-lang/python-3.9.16_p2::gentoo[bluetooth]" [installed])
(dependency required by "dev-python/pygments-2.14.0::gentoo[python_targets_python3_9]" [ebuild])
(dependency required by "dev-python/docutils-0.19::gentoo" [ebuild])

But updating system runs into blocks:

Code: Select all

The following packages are causing rebuilds:

Now I am at a loss. What am I missing?

der bastler,

Try

Code: Select all

emerge -DUuva @world --keep-going --backtrack=100

-N and -U are similar but -N will do unnecessary rebuilds.
--backtrack=100 tells portage to try harder before it gives up.

dev-lang/python-3.9.16_p2 looks like a problem.
Why do you need python_targets_python3_9 ?

Do you have it in /etc/portage/* somewhere?

Post by **sam_** » Sun Mar 12, 2023 2:58 pm

1. Do not bother trying to do @system by itself.
2. What does emerge -p -uvDU @world --backtrack=9999 and emerge -pev @world --backtrack=0 give as output? (Only run these with pretend, I just want to see the full output).

DNuva was my standard for years, but I stumbled over U today during recherche. Thanks for the info!

I revised /etc/portage/package.use and found several python targets there. All were results of autounmask. I removed these remnants.

Why is your tar from the ::poly-c overlay ?

Using the obsolete poly-c overlay is likely at the root cause of your issues.

I recommend removing it if at all possible unless a specific package from there is required.

If something is required, I'd suggest adding */*::poly-c to package.mask and then package.unmask what you need.

Post by **Ionen** » Mon Mar 13, 2023 5:18 pm

Yes, ::poly-c been against the migration to app-alteratives packages (among other things, that overlay is rather political) and changed a lot of things on system packages that aren't quite compatible with gentoo's ebuilds.

I do suggest dropping (or masking most of) that overlay unless you really know what you're doing with it.

Of course I'll do that. Wasn't even aware I used it. At some point I must have been experimenting with something. Enemy Territory perhaps. Or BBC iPlayer. Anyway, deleted that (and fordfrog) -- and am underway...

Thanks!

Uptime now at 5 days (it's a notebook), but finishing soon.

One pitfall was a hidden circular dep between freetype and harfbuzz. Solution:

compile freetype without harfbuzz use flag
merge harfbuzz
re-merge freetype with harfbuzz use flag
