[solved] xterm & world update

emerge -pvuDN world

gives:

Code: Select all

Calculating dependencies... done!
        
Total: 0 packages, Size of downloads: 0 kB

but xterm needs upgrade:

Code: Select all

emerge -pv xterm

gives:

Code: Select all

[ebuild     U ] x11-terms/xterm-250 [243]

xterm is not the world file but xorg-server is, on which xinit depends, on which xterm depends

Why does this happen?

what version of xinit are you using ? i´m asking because minimal USE is set now by default which will drop the xterm dep.
anyways, what does a emerge -upDv --with-bdeps=y @world tell you ?

cheers

Indeed minimal flag is on:

Code: Select all

eix xinit

Code: Select all

[I] x11-apps/xinit

but

emerge -upDv --with-bdeps=y world

gives:

I just saw that
emerge -p --depclean
wants to unmerge xterm
so ok I'll have to put it in world

Indeed minimal flag is on:

then it is quite clear i think, from the latest xinit ebuild :

Code: Select all

DEPEND="${RDEPEND}"
PDEPEND="x11-apps/xrdb
	!minimal? (
		x11-apps/xclock
		x11-apps/xsm
		x11-terms/xterm
		x11-wm/twm
	)

in case minimal is set you don´t get this four apps as a dep anymore.

if you really want xterm add it to the world file (or maybe regenworld will pick it up for you) ... or just unset the minimal use flag

cheers

Ok, that explains why --depclean just unmerged

x11-apps/xclock
x11-apps/xsm
x11-terms/xterm
x11-wm/twm

on my system.
Bye bye twm, I'll miss, you little buddy.
