 Posted: Mon Apr 25, 2016 7:31 pm Post subject: [SOLVED] GTK+ conflict with XFCE and Gnome installation |
 |
|
Hello everyone,
I am trying to install Gnome3 from Dantrell B overlay. I followed instructions but when trying to run:
| Code: |
emerge --deep --with-bdeps=y --changed-use --update --ask --verbose @world
|
I get this result:
https://bpaste.net/show/754ca7745a7b
There seems to be conflict with GTK+ packages. I am not sure why any GTK+ is mentioned other than gtk+-3.20.3. In one of my attempts, I tried to mask:
| Code: |
echo "<x11-libs/gtk+-3.20.3" >> /etc/portage/package.mask/x11-libs
|
But the same message appeared nontheless:
| Code: |
(x11-libs/gtk+-3.20.3:3/20::dantrell-gnome-3-20, installed) pulled in by
>=x11-libs/gtk+-3.14:3/20= required by (xfce-base/garcon-0.5.0-r2:0/0::gentoo, installed)
^^^^^^
>=x11-libs/gtk+-3.19.12:3[introspection?] required by (gnome-base/nautilus-3.20.0:0/0::dantrell-gnome-3-20, ebuild scheduled for merge)
^^ ^^^^^^^^^
(and 3 more with the same problems)
(x11-libs/gtk+-3.18.7:3/3::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge) pulled in by
>=x11-libs/gtk+-3.6:3/3= required by (xfce-extra/xfce4-indicator-plugin-2.3.3-r1:0/0::gentoo, installed)
|
Besides, other packages like GFTP need gtk+-2.24.30 for smoother UI appearnce so I now have gtk+-3.20.3 and gtk+-2.24.30. But I still don't understand why gtk+-3.14, gtk+-3.19.12, gtk+-3.6, and gtk+-3.18.7 are being mentioned here.
I could remove these xfce-related packages but I need to use XFCE. And I also want to install Gnome 3. Is it possible for both these DE's to be installed? Could somebody please suggest how I can resolve this problem?
I also tried to mask these XFCE packages:
| Code: |
package.mask # cat xfce-base
=xfce-base/garcon-0.5.0-r1
package.mask # cat xfce-extra
=xfce-extra/xfce4-power-manager-1.5.2
=xfce-extra/xfce4-pulseaudio-plugin-0.2.3
=xfce-extra/xfce4-indicator-plugin-2.3.3-r1
|
But that didn't help.
Thanks,
Victor. |

Ok, I solved it. I had to mask correct version for garcon package and after re-installing and masking these packages:
| Code: |
=xfce-extra/xfce4-power-manager-1.5.2
=xfce-extra/xfce4-pulseaudio-plugin-0.2.4
=xfce-extra/xfce4-indicator-plugin-2.3.3-r1
|
I can run the update command. |

Glad you got things resolved.
Just for the record, any issues related to my overlays should be reported either on the relevant forum topic (if you want more eyes on the issue) or to me directly (if you want my prompt attention).
That said, GNOME should work alongside other closely related Desktop Environments just fine although it may take some fiddling with, as you found, especially if they are based off of different GNOME release versions. I prefer not to spend my time diagnosing these kind of issues as they are typically too specialized, however, I am happy to look into them if they relate to conflicts with these packages.

Hi,
Thank you so much for providing an overlay for Gnome 3. I've installed it from your overlay and it works great!  Just followed these instructions: https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/GNOME/GNOME_Without_systemd step-by-step and everything went smoothly. I think it's easier to mix XFCE with Gnome3 than with plasma but my plasma DE recently crashed on my other laptop so I might replace it with Gnome3 as well.
Kind regards,
Victor. |
