 |
|
This is similar to the problem I previously had emerging control-center-2.16.1 (which was solved). Now when I run revdep-rebuild, why does it try to rebuild control-center-1.4.0.5-r3 (and fail) when I have just re-merged control-center-2.16.1 successfully?

You can try the '-X' option of revdep-rebuild, but I assume you should rebuild the older version as well, because probably it's slot installed, as some package needs this old version as dependency.

Thanks for the suggestion, unfortunately it still tried to merge control-center-1.4.0.5-r3. Since there doesn't seem to be anything that specifically depends on the old version:
| Code: | # equery depends control-center-1.4.0.5-r3
[ Searching for packages depending on control-center-1.4.0.5-r3... ]
# equery depends ">=control-center-1.4"
[ Searching for packages depending on >=control-center-1.4... ]
# equery depends ">=control-center-1"
[ Searching for packages depending on >=control-center-1... ]
# equery depends "<=control-center-1"
[ Searching for packages depending on <=control-center-1... ]
# equery depends control-center
[ Searching for packages depending on control-center... ]
gnome-base/gnome-2.14.2
gnome-extra/gtkhtml-1.1.10-r1 |
I proceeded to remove all the control-center files from /usr/portage/distfiles & /usr/portage/gnome-base/, re-sync'd & tried to directly merge that version:
| Code: | | emerge -bv =gnome-base/control-center-1.4.0.5-r3 |
But got the same error. Here it is in case it means something. But I'd much rather have a way to tell revdep-rebuild NOT remerge old packages.

But if you don't need it (nothing depends on it), why would you like to eemrge it?
Just remove it, than try the revdep-rebuild.
If the revdep-rebuild wants to emerge it, than it's bug, so submit it.

That's what the original question was. Since gnome depends on it I can't just remove the package & move on. I have the latest package merged (2.16.1), but revdep-rebuild insists on trying to remerge the old one. I couldn't care less about the old package. Is there a way I can mask it? I'll check the portage man pages. thks

I've done some more poking at the problem & have found that it's definitely a revdep-rebuild issue. Although it couldn't remerge the older version of control-center, the real issue is that revdep-rebuild is trying to remerge an old version of gtkhtml. The latest available is 3.12.1 & it is trying to remerge 1.1.10-r1.
This is what revdep-rebuild was trying to do:
| Code: | | emerge --oneshot -bv =gnome-extra/evolution-webcal-2.8.0 =gnome-extra/gtkhtml-1.1.10-r1 =mail-client/evolution-2.8.1.1 =media-gfx/fontforge-20061014 |
So I successfully ran the command:
| Code: | | emerge -p gnome-extra/evolution-webcal gnome-extra/gtkhtml mail-client/evolution media-gfx/fontforge |
So I masked old versions of gtkhtml:
| Code: | # cat package.mask
<gnome-extra/gtkhtml-3 |
and ran:
| Code: | | # revdep-rebuild -i -X -- -bv |
but this failed:
| Code: | [31;01mWarning: Failed to resolve package order.
Will merge in "random" order!
Possible reasons:
- An ebuild is no longer in the portage tree.
- An ebuild is masked, use /etc/portage/packages.keyword
and/or /etc/portage/package.unmask to unmask it
. done.
(/root/.revdep-rebuild.5_order)
[32;01mAll prepared. Starting rebuild...
emerge --oneshot -bv =gnome-extra/gtkhtml-2.6.0 =media-gfx/fontforge-20061014
Calculating dependencies
!!! All ebuilds that could satisfy "=gnome-extra/gtkhtml-2.6.0" have been masked.
!!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request:
- gnome-extra/gtkhtml-2.6.0 (masked by: package.mask)
For more information, see MASKED PACKAGES section in the emerge man page or
refer to the Gentoo Handbook.
[31;01mrevdep-rebuild failed to emerge all packages |
So my question now is, how can I get revdep-rebuild to ignore this package? |

Thanks for pointing out the masking problem. I've since removed the mask entirely. Last night I tried an update world, it's been a while due to this & some blocking issues, and except for one hiccup where I had to manually remerge esound (it turned out just the symlink to esd was missing), everything merged 100%, including the old version of control-center %^). Whether it was due to another part of the update world or some of the tweaking I've done here I don't know, but it seems to be solved now.
I'm running revdep-rebuild right now. I'll close this thread & my bug assuming that runs fine too.
Thanks a lot for your help. |

I've since successfully run an update world & another revdep-rebuild & now my system is completely up to date. Thanks again for the help.
Until next time  |
