[SOLVED] dev-db/sqliteman & hard masked x11-libs/qscintilla

Message

I encounter a strange problem regarding dev-db/sqliteman-1.2.2-r2 and x11-libs/qscintilla-2.10 on several independent computers (but with similar setup).

Starting from an fully updated system ("emerge -avuDN world" does not want to do anything) we install sqliteman. Nothing is pulled in, just this single package gets installed, at this time qscintilla-2.9.2-r1 (oldest stable) is installed. Running "emerge -avuDN world" right afterwards again yields:

Code: Select all

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

[ebuild     U #] x11-libs/qscintilla-2.10:0/13::gentoo [2.9.2-r1:0/12::gentoo] USE="qt4 qt5%* -designer -doc" 2.600 KiB

The following keyword changes are necessary to proceed:

# required by @world (argument)

The following mask changes are necessary to proceed:
 (see "package.unmask" in the portage(5) man page for more details)
# required by dev-db/sqliteman-1.2.2-r2::gentoo

# Library name changed in 2.10, breaking many consumers.
# Needs full revdep testing.
=x11-libs/qscintilla-2.10

Definitely I do not want to unmask this hard masked package on a otherwise "stable" system. Most strangely emerge reports sqliteman as needing this, but when installing sqliteman it does not ask for exactly this update. Seems to be something with the "deep" search or the (for me too complicated) RDEPEND of sqliteman asking for 'x11-libs/qscintilla:=[qt4(-)]"' and the qt4/5 USE flags.
It does not matter if sqliteman-1.2.2-r2 (stable) or 1.2.2-r3 (testing) is installed.

Updating qscintilla manually to latest stable 2.9.4 (emerge never did this), brings up a similar thing, but now when trying to install sqliteman:

Code: Select all

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

[ebuild     U #] x11-libs/qscintilla-2.10:0/13::gentoo [2.9.4:0/12::gentoo] USE="qt4* qt5 -designer -doc" 2.600 KiB
[ebuild  N     ] dev-db/sqliteman-1.2.2-r2::gentoo  0 KiB

Total: 2 packages (1 upgrade, 1 new), Size of downloads: 2.600 KiB

The following keyword changes are necessary to proceed:
 (see "package.accept_keywords" in the portage(5) man page for more details)
# required by dev-db/sqliteman-1.2.2-r2::gentoo
# required by sqliteman (argument)
=x11-libs/qscintilla-2.10 ~amd64

The following mask changes are necessary to proceed:
 (see "package.unmask" in the portage(5) man page for more details)

# Library name changed in 2.10, breaking many consumers.
# Needs full revdep testing.
=x11-libs/qscintilla-2.10

Also here it does not matter if sqliteman-1.2.2-r2 or 1.2.2-r3.

So I'm still running on qscintilla-2.9.2-r1 since some weeks and always uninstalling sqliteman before updating to work around this issue. Anybody has an idea to really solve it?

It is not pulling a masked dependency. But the masked qscintilla is the only way for Portage to serve both qt4 and qt5 reverse dependencies.

But why is it then not running into this problem when installing sqliteman on the updated system, but only later on?

Josef.95 · Post by **Josef.95** » Mon Jul 24, 2017 5:54 am

Yes, try it with emerge --autounmask=n
it should help.

there is likely an other reverse dependency of qscintilla on your system conflicting with the use dep needs of sqliteman.

@Josef.95: But --autounmask=n would only hide the problem/make it impossible for emerge to find any solution?

@asturm: Perhaps I'm getting the concept wrong, but when there is qscintilla installed with qt4 USE Flag (which sqliteman obviously wants to have) it can be installed and nobody asks for qt5 (not considered at this point?). When updating world and recalculating the whole thing qt5 comes in (from profile?) and wants to change qscintilla, but this is not needed at all in my installation.
This thought at least lead me to the workaround of setting "qscintilla qt4 -qt5" in package.use manually, but I thought it would figure out on it's own (or at least suggest this solution as it is more useful). Can't this behavior not be incorporated into the ebuild of sqliteman or does this break anything else?

Hm no, it explains the situation better instead of unmasking hard masked packages.
Example:

Code: Select all

# emerge -av --autounmask=n =dev-db/sqliteman-1.2.2-r2

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

Calculating dependencies... done!

emerge: there are no ebuilds built with USE flags to satisfy "x11-libs/qscintilla:=[qt4(-)]".
!!! One of the following packages is required to complete your request:
- x11-libs/qscintilla-2.9.4::gentoo (Change USE: +qt4, this change violates use flag constraints defined by x11-libs/qscintilla-2.9.4: 'exactly-one-of ( qt4 qt5 )')
(dependency required by "dev-db/sqliteman-1.2.2-r2::gentoo" [ebuild])
(dependency required by "=dev-db/sqliteman-1.2.2-r2" [argument])

For me, this output explains it better :)

Quincy · Post by **Quincy** » Mon Jul 24, 2017 7:56 am

OK, that explains the problem much better: No parallel qt4 and qt5 - now that's what I introduced with "qt4 -qt5".

That's what I actually tried to say in my first response
