OpenSSL 1.1.0i Conflict

[ZappingLinux]

So I am unsure how to deal with the following problem. I am on a fresh install which I tried to keep as close to minimal as possible. The only thing that is already on the system that wouldnt be considered minimal is an installation of Gnome with systemd. So the problem I ran into when running emerge --ask --update --deep --newuse @world is that it needs to unmask OpenSSL 1.1.0i. But this version of OpenSSL causes an emerge conflict with ruby when I emerged gnome. So the problem I have is that I have a couple of new global variables added to USE but I cannot emerge my @world because some packages apparently need openSSL 1.1.0i while others break when using that. How do I solve this conflict?

My use variables do not have bindist in it at all. Should I add -bindist?

Ok, then you can post exactly emerge output (you can try to add --autounmask n in emerge option)?

Try to remove bindist use flag form make.conf

My use variables do not have bindist in it at all. Should I add -bindist?

Does "emerge --info |grep bindist" show it as being there?

What does "emerge -pvuDUt @world" show (find where openssl is and see what's pulling it in)

[ct85711]

The other part on this, is that openssl-1.1 is still hard masked; so nothing should ever depend on that version (especially on stable branch).

Now it is said that packages are starting to shift over to support openssl-1.1, but that will still more likely end up being sometime next year.

Sorry it took so long to get back to you. I didn't expect help so soon to be honest

Code: Select all

(chroot) livecd / # emerge --info | grep bindist
(chroot) livecd / # 

gives nothing which I suppose is good.

running emerge --ask -pvuDUt @world gives me the following. I exluded the packages that would need to be merged.

It may be possible to solve this problem by using package.mask to
prevent one of those packages from being selected. However, it is also
possible that conflicting dependencies exist such that they are
impossible to satisfy simultaneously.  If such a conflict exists in
the dependencies of two different packages, then those packages can
not be installed simultaneously.

My use variables do not have bindist in it at all. Should I add -bindist?

Ok, then you can post exactly emerge output (you can try to add --autounmask n in emerge option)?

Hey! Thank you for responding so quickly! I get the following. So it really wants to unmask openssl. In my above comment I show my use variables that I have configured now. I compiled the system without any use variables the first time I did everything, thinking I would just do that when I had the system up and running. I am currently chrooted in the environment because I don't have a browser emerged yet (or compiled the kernel with wifi support for that matter).

Code: Select all

(chroot) livecd / # emerge --ask --update --deep --autounmask --newuse @world

The especially sucky part is that I have done this emerge --ask --update --deep --newuse @world with openssl unmasked. So I ran emerge --unmerge for it, masked version 1.1.0 and emerged 1.0.2 but now there are some libraries left because apparently they are needed according to the system.

It may be possible to solve this problem by using package.mask to
prevent one of those packages from being selected. However, it is also
possible that conflicting dependencies exist such that they are
impossible to satisfy simultaneously.  If such a conflict exists in
the dependencies of two different packages, then those packages can
not be installed simultaneously.

For more information, see MASKED PACKAGES section in the emerge man
page or refer to the Gentoo Handbook.


The following mask changes are necessary to proceed:

There is also some stuff for the use flags of x11 but those I understand.

The especially sucky part is that I have done this emerge --ask --update --deep --newuse @world with openssl unmasked. So I ran emerge --unmerge for it, masked version 1.1.0 and emerged 1.0.2 but now there are some libraries left because apparently they are needed according to the system.

ah, what does "emerge -pv preserved-rebuild" show?

Like this? Thank you for trying to help me by the way! I really appreciate it!

(chroot) livecd / # emerge -pv preserved-rebuild

emerge: there are no ebuilds to satisfy "preserved-rebuild".

I will go check it! I assume it will take a while to emerge my @world again. I will keep you posted! Again thank you! I will be looking up what this @preserved-build thing is in the meantime. Never seen that before tbh.

Edit: Yes that did solve it! Thanks a ton! Could you perhaps give me a short explanation of how you came to this conclusion?

[Anon-E-moose]

If you haven't added it yet, add the auto-unmask to USE

Your line would change from

Code: Select all

USE="-qt4 -qt5 -kde X gtk gnome systemd"

to

Code: Select all

USE="--autounmask=n -qt4 -qt5 -kde X gtk gnome systemd"

That will keep future problems from showing up (or at least most of them)


Edit to add: preserved-rebuild is a set of libs that are kept so that packages will still function until they get rebuilt with newer/other versions of libs.
It gives you a list of packages that need to be rebuilt to make the system cohesive.

Anon-E-moose: please proofread a bit more closely when advising configuration edits. --autounmask=n does not make sense as a USE option, but makes perfect sense in EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS.

ZappingLinux: remove the change from Anon-E-moose's last post, and instead put --autounmask=n in EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS, as so:

Code: Select all

EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS="--autounmask=n"

If you have other options, you can keep them in that line. For reference, I use a slightly different value.

Code: Select all

EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS="--verbose-conflicts --quiet-build=y --autounmask-write=n --autounmask-keep-masks"

This lets autounmask make suggestions to me, but it cannot override hard masks, nor will it prompt me to write the changes to my configuration files.

See man emerge for a description of these options and many others.

You're right, mine is in EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS . I was multitasking when I said that. I had just grabbed his USE line without thinking about it

From my make.conf

ZappingLinux,

While --autounmask was is use, it will have written some files in /etc/portage.
You probably don't want most of those.

What does

Code: Select all

cat /etc/portage/*/* 

return ?

You should not need USE=systemd in make.conf and maybe not USE=gnome either.

USE=systemd will be provided by your profile ... see

Code: Select all

eselect profile list

Choosing the correct profile sets a lot of USE flags for you.

Its safe to select a profile then run

Code: Select all

emerge --info 

to check the USE flags it provides.
Don't actually install anything until you select a profile you like.

>=gnome-base/gnome-control-center-3.24.4 networkmanager 

is your package.use directory.

Rather than blindly setting USE flags per package here, you should decide for yourself if you need them just for a small number of packages, or globally, in which case the flay belongs un make.conf.

e.g. static-libs should always be set on a package by package basis.
Gnome users probably want networkmanager everywhere as its a gnome thing.
If you want raw and jpeg2k support, you probably want it on all packages where its optional, not just media-libs/gegl

Thats by the by. There is nothing there driving your OpenSSL issue.
