[paludis] lots of warnings..

Message

Hi!

I tried to migrate to paludis, but the first thing that scared me away were warnings.. I tried to test paludis with "paludis -i world", but the thing I got is a few pages of "warnings".. there were some concerning xorg-x11, mplayer wrong name and many others...
It didn't even start to install updates as the program stopped, because sth was wrong in my portage...

I know one thing: my system is quite old now and I've player with many packaged so far.

The question is: is it possible to effectively get rid of all those warnings once and for all, or is it just normal for paludis so far? Is it worth it to try and solve such errors? Wouldn't I need to "repair" such errors too often?

It might be easier for people to help if we knew exactly what warnings you're seeing.

It might be a good idea to first update the system using portage and only then switch to paludis...

I wanted to know generally if problems like that persists..

But if you insist (AFTER normal emerge update)

It would be great if you could shed a light on this matter. I can see problems with packages that are no longer there, but have no idea how to uninstall them using paludis (paludis -u sth that there are no such packages ;>). Still there lots of others I suppose..

you should remove kde-base/kde-env & virtual/x11, since they're now masked, removing kde-env does no harm, for more info on virtual/x11 search the forums, your system should be fine after having 'fixed' those 2 problems

These mean that the named package has been masked or removed from the tree, you can uninstall it.

These are a little different: kde-env has been removed and you've presumably uninstalled it, but the record of the installed packages still refers to it. To fix it, you need to reinstall the package depending on kde-env, ie kreadconfig, kcheckpass, etc. This sort of thing will happen occasionally when package dependencies get changed around - it's not an issue for Portage because it ignores the installed dependency information. IIRC there are plans to change Portage, so when that happens I suppose the devs'll come up with a nicer way to handle things.

Another way this can happen is if a package gets renamed or moved to a different category: Portage can automatically update its records, but Paludis doesn't support that yet (it will at some point). Until it does. the easiest way to handle it would be to remove the package using its old name and reinstall it with the new one, and reinstall any dependants to update the installed database.

This is a mixture of the previous two: you can remove virtual/x11 and doxygen-syntax, and reinstall tk and extra-syntax to update the old dependency record.

Many thanks for this help

There was much more packages depending on virtual/x11, but reinstalling them all helped.

I am still fighting with some packages which don't want to install themselves, but I am confident that they will finally work;)
