emerge system fails on mac os x 10.3

[b00z3]

Hi there,

i just installed the gentoo-macosx.dmg on my Computer.

Now the 'emerge system' fails with the following output:

Code: Select all

wintermute:/etc root# emerge system
Calculating system dependencies \
!!! All ebuilds that could satisfy "sys-apps/coreutils" have been masked.
!!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request:
- sys-apps/coreutils-5.2.1-r2 (masked by: missing keyword)
- sys-apps/coreutils-5.2.1-r3 (masked by: ~ppc keyword)
- sys-apps/coreutils-5.2.1-r4 (masked by: ~ppc keyword)

For more information, see MASKED PACKAGES section in the emerge man page or 
section 2.2 "Software Availability" in the Gentoo Handbook.
!!!    (dependency required by "sys-devel/gnuconfig-20040214" [ebuild])


!!! Problem with ebuild net-misc/wget-1.9.1-r2
!!! Possibly a DEPEND/*DEPEND problem.

!!! Depgraph creation failed.
wintermute:/etc root#

The following keywords are written in /etc/make.conf

Code: Select all

# The Architecture

ARCH="ppc"

# The next generation KEYWORD, including architecture, userland, kernel and libc

ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="ppc-macos"

Any hints?

The handbook says...

~arch keyword means that the application is not tested sufficiently to be put in the stable branch. Wait a few days or weeks and try again.

But I think there should be a way to install the base system... I don't want to wait any longer...

Make the following directory

/etc/portage/profile

in this directory create a file called package.provided and put the following in it:

sys-devel/libperl-5.8.1
dev-lang/perl-5.8.1
sys-devel/automake-1.6.3
sys-devel/autoconf-2.57
sys-devel/m4-1.4
sys-apps/coreutils-0.0.0

Alternatively you could emerge -i each of those lines, but that method is deprecated.

Yeah! That did it! You made my day!

Where did you get those information from? Installation Handbook? Gentoo OS X Wiki? It'd be nice, if you could show me where you've got this.

Code: Select all

ln -s /usr/portage/profiles/default-macos-10.3 /etc/portage/profile

Gentoo OS X Wiki have a Guide for installation of Gentoo on Mac OSX, and it is very well explained. I had some problem but the guide helps me a lot.

If you have some problem with a package massked by keyword use the command ekeyword included on the getoolkit-dev package.
