Posted: Mon Feb 25, 2013 11:19 am Post subject: [SOLVED] dev-manager ebuild 'not seeing' udev |
|
|
I run an OpenVZ kernel : linux-2.6.32-openvz-feoktistov.1 - this is the latest for OpenVZ as far as I can tell;[/code] so have masked udev > 171 and am currently running:
| Code: |
* virtual/udev
Latest version available: 171
Latest version installed: 171
Size of files: 0 kB
Homepage:
Description: Virtual for udev implementation and number of its features
License:
* sys-fs/udev
Latest version available: 197-r3
Latest version installed: 171-r10
Size of files: 2,007 kB
Homepage: http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd
Description: Linux dynamic and persistent device naming support (aka userspace devfs)
License: LGPL-2.1 MIT GPL-2
|
The latest set of updates bring in virtual/dev-manager which then tries:
| Code: |
jared ~ # emerge -kuavNDt world
* IMPORTANT: 1 news items need reading for repository 'gentoo'.
* Use eselect news to read news items.
These are the packages that would be merged, in reverse order:
Calculating dependencies... done!
[nomerge ] virtual/dev-manager-0
[binary N ] sys-fs/static-dev-0.1 0 kB
|
If I mask static-dev I get:
| Code: |
jared ~ # emerge -kuavNDt world
* IMPORTANT: 1 news items need reading for repository 'gentoo'.
* Use eselect news to read news items.
These are the packages that would be merged, in reverse order:
Calculating dependencies... done!
[ebuild R ] sys-apps/busybox-1.20.2 USE="ipv6 mdev* pam static -livecd -make-symlinks -math -savedconfig (-selinux) -sep-usr -systemd" 0 kB
|
Looking at the ebuild this is also an option in dev-manager's RDEPEND list. As is static-dev and virtual/udev (which I have installed).
So why is it ignoring my virtual/udev?
For the moment I'm going to have to mask virtual/dev-manager, but this doesn't seem like a good long term solution... _________________ http://www.axiomtech.co.uk

| What does `emerge -p virtual/udev` say? |

| Hmm, not sure what's happening there, I'd file a bug report about this. |

Samuli Suominen replied (very quickly!) to the bug suggesting making sure I had both sys-fs and virtual udev ebuilds masked and this solved the problem.
It doesn't however solve the underlying problem that there isn't yet, AFAIK, a udev-197 compatible OpenVZ kernel (let alone an ebuild) and I currently have neither skills nor time to work on that... _________________ http://www.axiomtech.co.uk
