 |
|
For a few weeks now, when attempting to 'emerge world', I end up getting:
| Code: | $ sudo emerge -vauDNt world
These are the packages that would be merged, in reverse order:
Calculating dependencies... done!
!!! All ebuilds that could satisfy ">=app-admin/eselect-python-20090804" have been masked.
!!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request:
- app-admin/eselect-python-99999999 (masked by: missing keyword)
- app-admin/eselect-python-20090824 (masked by: ~x86 keyword)
- app-admin/eselect-python-20090814 (masked by: ~x86 keyword)
For more information, see the MASKED PACKAGES section in the emerge
man page or refer to the Gentoo Handbook.
(dependency required by "dev-python/gdata-2.0.1-r1" [ebuild])
(dependency required by "world" [argument]) |
I've currently got installed:
| Code: | $ equery l eselect-python
[ Searching for package 'eselect-python' in all categories among: ]
* installed packages
[I--] [ ] app-admin/eselect-python-20090606 (0) |
I've found one thread that claims to be solved for the same issue, but that solution (adding version-after-installed to package mask) does not help me. Adding that line to package.mask and trying again produces identical results. |

Then you will have to add an entry in /etc/portage/package.keywords for eselect-python. 20090606 is the current stable version while the others are still in testing, but I wouldn't worry about them not being stable. I am running 20090824 without any problems.
If you are using package.keywords as a file or have never run any testing packages then
| Code: | | # echo "app-admin/eselect-python" >> /etc/portage/package.keywords |
If you are using package.keywords as a directory then you already know what to do

Before adding to keywords:
| Code: | !!! All ebuilds that could satisfy ">=app-admin/eselect-python-20090804" have been masked.
!!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request:
- app-admin/eselect-python-99999999 (masked by: package.mask, missing keyword)
- app-admin/eselect-python-20090824 (masked by: package.mask, ~x86 keyword)
- app-admin/eselect-python-20090814 (masked by: package.mask, ~x86 keyword)
... |
After:
| Code: | !!! All ebuilds that could satisfy ">=app-admin/eselect-python-20090804" have been masked.
!!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request:
- app-admin/eselect-python-99999999 (masked by: package.mask, missing keyword)
- app-admin/eselect-python-20090824 (masked by: package.mask)
- app-admin/eselect-python-20090814 (masked by: package.mask)
For more information, see the MASKED PACKAGES section in the emerge
man page or refer to the Gentoo Handbook.
(dependency required by "dev-python/gdata-2.0.2" [ebuild])
(dependency required by "world" [argument]) |
And the description of the problem in the bug sounds very bad -- like all python scripts could start failing to run. So I'm not excited to be forcing possibly broken packages into my system. Surely I'm not the only user with eselect-python and gdata installed? |

You need to append it to package.unmask | Code: | | echo "=app-admin/eselect-python-20090824" >> /etc/portage/package.unmask |
