revdep-rebuild [solved]

  • Quote

Post by idella4 » Fri Nov 20, 2009 2:35 pm

I've updated the system and have posted a few other threads. As they indicate, there have been a few things to straighten out. This hopefully the last.
As advised, I've run revdep-rebuild. At first it was wanting to install a python package. Then it moved onto hal. Now it's back to python.

Code: Select all

Susie / # revdeep-rebuild
bash: revdeep-rebuild: command not found
Susie / # revdep-rebuild
Configuring search environment for revdep-rebuild

Checking reverse dependencies...

Packages containing binaries and libraries broken by a package update
will be emerged.

Collecting system binaries and libraries... done.
  (/root/.revdep-rebuild.1_files)

Collecting complete LD_LIBRARY_PATH... done.
  (/root/.revdep-rebuild.2_ldpath)

Checking dynamic linking consistency...
  broken /usr/lib/python2.4/lib-dynload/_curses_panel.so (requires  libpanelw.so.5)
 done.
  (/root/.revdep-rebuild.3_rebuild)

Assigning files to ebuilds... done.
  (/root/.revdep-rebuild.4_ebuilds)

Evaluating package order...
Warning: 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)

All prepared. Starting rebuild...
emerge --oneshot  =dev-lang/python-2.4.4-r6
..........

 * IMPORTANT: 5 news items need reading for repository 'gentoo'.
 * Use eselect news to read news items.

Calculating dependencies... done!

emerge: there are no ebuilds to satisfy "=dev-lang/python-2.4.4-r6".

Now,

Code: Select all

Susie / # eselect python list
Available python interpreters:
  [1]   python2.4
  [2]   python2.5
  [3]   python2.6 *

Code: Select all

Susie / # ls /usr/portage/distfiles/Python*
/usr/portage/distfiles/Python-2.5.2.tar.bz2  /usr/portage/distfiles/Python-2.6.2.tar.bz2
shows I only have 2.5 and 2.6 from previous times. I can only assume 2.4 was emerged at some point.
qlist displays a list dozens of files long with 2.4, 2.5 and 2.6 present. I've been advised in the other thread to unmerge the prior versions of python. So,

Code: Select all

Susie / # emerge -C python-2.4.6

--- Couldn't find '=dev-lang/python-2.4.6' to unmerge.

>>> No packages selected for removal by unmerge

 * IMPORTANT: 5 news items need reading for repository 'gentoo'.
 * Use eselect news to read news items.

Code: Select all

Susie / # emerge -C python-2.5.4-r3

--- Couldn't find '=dev-lang/python-2.5.4-r3' to unmerge.

>>> No packages selected for removal by unmerge

 * IMPORTANT: 5 news items need reading for repository 'gentoo'.
 * Use eselect news to read news items.
They won't go.
Anyway, with python using the 2.6 version, why does revdep-rebuild insist on emerging an outdated version that is already installed? I just want to update and straighten out this system

HELP

Note that revdep-rebuild doesn't update anything: it rebuilds things, kind of like its name implies. Sometimes packages need to be rebuild because other packages they depend on have been updated.

The behavior you're seeing is typically the result of running revdep-rebuild on a system that isn't up-to-date. You can't always run it successfully without extraordinary measures. Unless there's a reason not to, then get your system up to date by the normal

Code: Select all

emerge --sync
emerge -uDNv world
method and revdep-rebuild will then behave. If there's some reason you can't do that, please explain and I'll explain the extraordinary measures. :)

john_r_graham, thanks. The other thread entitled python will give you the full explanation you request. By itself it asks for this to be sorted, but the thread seems to have gone cold. emerge --sync was done as a first. emerged the new portage etc. Rather than -uDNv. U did emerge -evat world from memory. It's all in the other thread. I haven't looked closely at the difference between those options.
Anyway. a number of things seemed to sour, which I discovered was my fault. It's in the other thread. After those issues, I did emerge system to really finish things off. kde is now all in and I'm yet to boot into it freshly equipped.
Now you can't get more updated than that. In short, the provided update scripts once again missed a few key packages which I figured out and emerged. All that's left is revdep-build to complete and python-updater to behave. That's the other thread.

d2_racing thank you. We have

Please show which versions of Python are actually installed by doing:

Code: Select all

equery list -i -e python
Correction: I see you already provided this information and d2_racing has already provided the correct versions to unmerge below.

At least, when it will be time, you will be able to run this :

Code: Select all

# emerge -pCv = dev-lang/python-2.4.4-r6 =dev-lang/python-2.5.2-r6

d2_racing thanks that worked.with emerge -Cv. Strange it should be so hard.
revdep-rebuild needs revising. They are now unmerged, and

It still wants to emerge it. I suppose if anything else was going to be done it's left because it exits at the absence of the old version.

It may be as simple as running

Code: Select all

revdep-rebuild -i
which tells revdep-rebuild to ignore cached data from previous runs and to recalculate what needs to be rebuilt.

Also, when you reference another one of your posts, there is an implied invitation for one of us to take a look. It would be good netiquette to include a link, [topic=803567]like this[/topic]. :wink:

It's got over python and now found samba. Going off python, it means it wants to re-emerge the old samba to redo the links. So I'm emerging the new samba then will unmerge the old and try again. I'm not impressed with the revdep tool. It's a gentoo tool that the gentoo portage itself confounds. Why does it want to emerge it when its already emerged??? Is this standard practice to go looking for outdated packages that have been removed from portage?

This is the least of the problems. Looks like I should never have updated the system. You made a link to that post of mine. It boots into level 3 with key core structure missing. What an update that is. It worked perfectly properly before. If gentoo changes these packages about they need to keep them in a workable order. I've emerged the system twice, and sure enough the same poor bootup. It's far too complicated for the average user to deal with. So far I've got no response on the other thread and don't think I'll get one. Key system commands are just not there with the new set, no devices and a broken X. wow for gentoo

Well, I already told you that revdep-rebuild is designed to be run on an up-to-date system. Trying to use it at any other time can create a deluge of phantom issues. However, you're on the right track: get the out of date things that revdep-rebuild wants to rebuild updated, then rinse & repeat. :)

John thanks, I take your point. From the befinning I was advised to run revdep-rebuild and that's what I'm doing.
I've used gentoo for years but haven't quite got into the gentoolkit before as the current state requires so I'm figuring it as I go. I've never had such extensive problems before either.

By the way. I'm running a separate thread on Installing gentoo. Admin neddy seagoon, whom I respect, posted and asked me to try to keep all in one thread, but it was too late, I's already made them. This problem is minor. The system is quite broken. Please look at

Please look at http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-803567.html system state and feel free to reply. It's shattered.

Currently I have

Code: Select all

Susie / # revdep-rebuild
Configuring search environment for revdep-rebuild

Checking reverse dependencies...

Packages containing binaries and libraries broken by a package update
will be emerged.

Collecting system binaries and libraries... using existing /root/.revdep-rebuild.1_files.

Collecting complete LD_LIBRARY_PATH... using existing /root/.revdep-rebuild.2_ldpath.

Checking dynamic linking consistency... using existing /root/.revdep-rebuild.3_rebuild.

Assigning files to ebuilds... using existing /root/.revdep-rebuild.4_ebuilds.

Evaluating package order... using existing /root/.revdep-rebuild.5_order.

All prepared. Starting rebuild...
emerge --oneshot  =app-emulation/xen-tools-3.2.1 =net-fs/samba-3.0.28a-r1 =app-pda/libopensync-0.22
..........

 * IMPORTANT: 5 news items need reading for repository 'gentoo'.
 * Use eselect news to read news items.

Calculating dependencies... done!

emerge: there are no ebuilds to satisfy "=net-fs/samba-3.0.28a-r1".
here we go again.

Code: Select all

Susie / # emerge -pCv =net-fs/samba-3.0.28a-r1

>>> These are the packages that would be unmerged:

--- Couldn't find '=net-fs/samba-3.0.28a-r1' to unmerge.

>>> No packages selected for removal by unmerge
I thought the programming behind portage apps was made of more robust stuff. This has become so drawn out and time consuming.

and d2_racing

Code: Select all

Susie / # emerge -auDNv world

 * IMPORTANT: 5 news items need reading for repository 'gentoo'.
 * Use eselect news to read news items.


These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies... done!

So you have 267 outdated/missing packages on your system? I call that hardly up-to-date. :P
Why are you running revdep-rebuild???
john_r_graham wrote:Well, I already told you that revdep-rebuild is designed to be run on an up-to-date system. Trying to use it at any other time can create a deluge of phantom issues. However, you're on the right track: get the out of date things that revdep-rebuild wants to rebuild updated, then rinse & repeat. :)

- John
Concerning your boot problems, your current kernel might be to old for the updated udev to work.
Read my response in the other thread.

Let's get the system updated.
Quit your X Server if running. From the console.

Code: Select all

#emerge -C gail-1000
#emerge -C mailwrapper 
(mailwrapper is dead. Use ssmtp instead)

#emerge -C xf86-video-vga
#emerge -C xorg-server
after removing the blocks, we can start.

EDIT: A small change here. Since there is an upgrade to gcc, why not use the newer compiler to compile things.

Code: Select all

#emerge -uav gcc
#gcc-config -l 
Select the newer gcc with 
#gcc-config N 
(where N is the number before gcc-4.3.4)
#env-update && source /etc/profile
#emerge --oneshot -av libtool

#emerge -av xorg-server
(#emerge -av ssmtp)
#emerge -uNDav world
Pay attention to what portage messages you have here. Do it if advised to do something.
Also do 'eselect news read new'

Code: Select all

#etc-update
Update your config files, interactively merge the ones you have customized yourself.

Once you are there, then you can run

Code: Select all

#emerge -av --depclean
#revdep-rebuild
And if everything runs fine, your system is up-to-date.

Hope that helps.
regards

In fact, launch your big update and after that, we will see that's need to be fix.

But, for what I see, emerge will handle it :P

yes well, I think I'll refrain from that for the moment. I'd like to go back a step and do a sanity check.
I've run emerge world, and later after some messing around, emerge update system. The system is broken and that's addressed in the other thread and is more important. I've emerged kde ok. Why with an updated gentoo, why do I get

Code: Select all

Total: 267 packages (164 upgrades, 99 new, 2 in new slots, 2 reinstalls, 2 uninstalls), Size of downloads: 520,590 kB

??

Currently, revdep-rebuild wants to emerge the old samba I've just updated, and once again it won't unmerge. I thought that should be my only remaining issue.'
After all the trouble the update has done so far, why should it fix everything? It's done an update and everything is confused.

First, I agree that you should first get udev working again, maybe a newer kernel will already achieve that. The other errors may not go away so easily because you have tons of 18 month old outdated packages currently on your system.

As people told you maybe a bazillion times revdep-rebuild will never work if you don't update yours system.
Neither emerge -eav system nor emerge -eav world is going to get your system up to date, because they don't consider the whole dependency tree. Read the handbook (updating your system)

You have been advised several times to run
emerge --update --newuse --deep world

Only then your system is up to date.

update & deep is required to get all your dependencies updated. New packages build with completely outdated dependencies will break your system.
Selecting a new profile changes default USE flags. newuse will be required to rebuild you system with the new changed use flags. Packages with the wrong use flags in action will break yours system.

In fact, revdep-rebuild is a tool to check the consistency of the portage tree after you removed packages, and thus in almost all of the cases makes only sense to use after

emerge -uNDPv world
emerge --depclean
revdep-rebuild

Since there is currently no consistency on your system, revdep-rebuild can only make things worse.

aguettinger, after all I've said, why on earth do you think I've got 18 month old packages on my system. I've unmerged kde and xorg.
I think I understand that revdep-rebvuild won't work if it's not updated. However, reading the handbook again, it verifies what you say. I browsed through that but settled for emerge -evat. It looks good. The system isn't as muddled as you suspect. revdep-rebuild has finally run and completed without fault.
Since it's no use as it is, I may as well try it. Now which is it, emerge --update --newuse --deep world or emerge -uNDPv world and before you said emerge -uNDav world ?

I've been using gentoo for ages, but haven't quite done this before. I've actually created a new gentoo system, tried updating it but didn't go right through. So this is back to the learning curve.

On the other thread, you have a point. the kernel is -2.6.25 which should be ok if you said from kernel -2.6.25
Anyway, I thought I had the new gcc in but it seems to have stopped halfway through downloading so it's doing it now. My internet is capped and slow at the moment so it might take a while to include the number of new packages it lists. Thank goodness for parallel fetch. As I asked, why should it want so many new after already having emerged a supposedly current world and system?

"]aguettinger, after all I've said, why on earth do you think I've got 18 month old packages on my system. Well I started out with them. I've unmerged kde and xorg so I suppose that leaves some.
I think I understand that revdep-rebvuild won't work if it's not updated. However, reading the handbook again, it verifies what you say. I browsed through that earlier but settled for emerge -evat which was suggested in another place. It looks good. The system isn't as muddled as you suspect. revdep-rebuild has finally run and completed without fault.
Since it's no use as it is, I may as well try it. Now which is it, emerge --update --newuse --deep world or emerge -uNDPv world and before you said emerge -uNDav world ?

I've been using gentoo for ages, but haven't quite done this before. I've actually created a new gentoo system, tried updating it but didn't go right through. So this is back to the learning curve.

On the other thread, you have a point. the kernel is -2.6.25 which should be ok if you said from kernel -2.6.25

The emerge world is on its way again.

Because "emerge -e" (--emptytree) doesn't update anything: it just rebuilds what you've got. It's useful, for instance, when you've emerged a new compiler and want everything compiled against that new compiler. Now, "emerge -u" (--update) does install new things. In other words, you may not be as up-to-date as you think.

In fact, since your Gentoo install is old, you really need to run this :

Code: Select all

# emerge -auDNv world
After that, you should change your GCC compiler and then run this :

Code: Select all

# emerge -e world
