 Posted: Tue Aug 30, 2005 10:01 pm Post subject: unmerging unsupported software |
 |
|
I installed some unsupportes software and now after upgrading to a 2.6 kernel (finally) and just installing the software from sources, emerge -e world fails because of those packages. Since I don't need them anymore, I just want to uninstall them, but it won't work.
I don't even remeber what I did to emerge those packages, execpt getting the ebuilds from the bugs database. Any help would be appreciated as I can't finish emerge world.
Thanks. |

It's not uncommon for emerge world to fail, but what specifically is going on? If you add a -p so you can see what packages are going to be emerged, does it say you have packages that are blocking? If so, you can remove those with the emerge -C (which does NOT check for deps, so make sure it's something you don't actually need).
If it's not a package blocking the emerge world, is it something failing to compile? What's happening?

I think I made things worse.
]
| Code: | tux dev-embedded # emerge -e world -a --resume
--- Invalid atom in /etc/portage/package.mask: dev-embedded/avarice-2.3
These are the packages that I would merge, in order:
!!! aux_get(): ebuild path for 'dev-embedded/avarice-2.3' not specified:
!!! None
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 3140, in ?
mydepgraph.display(portage.mtimedb["resume"]["mergelist"])
File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 1516, in display
if (x[0]!="binary") and ("fetch" in string.split(portage.portdb.aux_get(x[2],["RESTRICT"])[0])):
File "/usr/lib/portage/pym/portage.py", line 5221, in aux_get
raise KeyError, "'%(cpv)s' at %(path)s" % {"cpv":mycpv,"path":myebuild}
KeyError: "'dev-embedded/avarice-2.3' at None" |
avarice is a packaged I had installed via an ebuild from gentoo.bugs. I don't need it anymore. I tried to remove it an now I'm getting the above message. Don't know where to go from here. Is there any place I can tell my system not to try and recomplie the above package, as I don't need it anyways? |

you don't need the version number in your package.mask file. I'm guessing you have this set up in your overlay?

To get it out of your world favorites, edit /var/lib/portage/world and remove that particular line.
Did you try emerge -C avarice?

I removed the version from package.mask, still getting this error
| Code: | tux julia # emerge -e world -a --resume
These are the packages that I would merge, in order:
!!! aux_get(): ebuild path for 'dev-embedded/avarice-2.3' not specified:
!!! None
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 3140, in ?
mydepgraph.display(portage.mtimedb["resume"]["mergelist"])
File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 1516, in display
if (x[0]!="binary") and ("fetch" in string.split(portage.portdb.aux_get(x[2],["RESTRICT"])[0])):
File "/usr/lib/portage/pym/portage.py", line 5221, in aux_get
raise KeyError, "'%(cpv)s' at %(path)s" % {"cpv":mycpv,"path":myebuild}
KeyError: "'dev-embedded/avarice-2.3' at None"
|
tried emerge -C avarice, getting this error
| Code: | tux julia # emerge -C avarice
--- Couldn't find avarice to unmerge.
>>> unmerge: No packages selected for removal. |
Looked at /var/lib/portage/world and avarice wasn't there.
Any other ideas?
BTW, I like your atavar. |

If it's not in your world file, I would think something that depends on it is.
Do an
and see what packages it lists.
You might also try
(equery is part of gentoolkit)

Did you delete the ebuild? If you did I don't think you can unmerge. Try replacing the ebuild if you did and then try unmerging.

I probably did trying to fix this, but I don't remember what I have to do to get it to work again.?
| Code: |
tux dev-embedded # ebuild /usr/local/portage/dev-embedded/avarice/avarice-2.3.ebuild digest
!!! aux_get(): ebuild path for 'dev-embedded/avarice-2.3' not specified:
!!! None
!!! aux_get(): ebuild path for 'dev-embedded/avarice-2.3' not specified:
!!! None
doebuild(): aux_get() error reading dev-embedded/avarice-2.3; aborting. |

Well, I don't see how emerge world is trying to do anything with avarice, so I'm officially out of ideas 
Did you delete it from your overlay?? (Maybe take the overlay directory out of your make.conf if you have no other third parites)
And remove it from the package.keywords, etc if it's in there.. other than that.. I'm just dumb.

It looks more like a problem with the ebuild than anything else. Try deleting the ebuild then redownlding the one you installed it with and try unmerging.

Are you sure your overlay directory is still set up in your /etc/make.conf
if not, try adding PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage"
I remember having the same error you have there : | Quote: | tux dev-embedded # ebuild /usr/local/portage/dev-embedded/avarice/avarice-2.3.ebuild digest
!!! aux_get(): ebuild path for 'dev-embedded/avarice-2.3' not specified: |
because i hadn't set that in my make.conf... |

I just don't understand why this would screw up emerge world... especially since I don't see it in the list of packages it's trying to update.. Looks like if he took off the p in the above command, he'd be rollin' .
