[gentoo-amd64] Masking / qt upgrade

[gentoo-amd64] Masking / qt upgrade

[Lorenzo Milesi]

Hi

I know it must be a simple thing, but I couldn't get out of this.
Yesterday I did a --sync to upgrade the system.
When launching emerge I get the following error:

!!! All ebuilds that could satisfy ">=sys-apps/dbus-0.93" have been masked.
!!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request:
- sys-apps/dbus-0.95 (masked by: package.mask)
# Steev Klimaszewski <steev@gentoo.org> (18 Aug 2006)
# waiting for new mono bindings and some testing

- sys-apps/dbus-0.94 (masked by: package.mask)

For more information, see MASKED PACKAGES section in the emerge man page or
refer to the Gentoo Handbook.
(dependency required by "x11-libs/qt-4.2.1-r1" [ebuild])

And that's ok. So, in order to upgrade anyway I'm going to mask
qt-4.2.1-r1 by adding
=x11-libs/qt-4.2.1-r1
in my package.mask. Right? Sadly emerge is still blocking because of
the same exact error.
What did I do wrong?

thanks

You only masked qt-4.2.1-r1, not qt-4.2.1, so the same error occurs. Put 
oe of these in /etc/portage/package.mask

~x11-libs/qt-4.2.1
>x11-libs/qt-4.2

The first masks all revisions of qt-4.2.1, the second masks everything
greater than 4.2, which is the more brutal approach.

If you can smile when things go wrong, you have someone in mind to blame.

Actually I have 4.2.1 installed!

I just need to mask -r1, as it's the upgrade which failes dep. Why
should I mask all the 4.2.1?

The version you have installed had the dbus use flag disabled. Now the dbus 
use flag has been readded to both of qt-4.2.1{,-r1}. You've added qt-4.2.1 to 
your package.unmask so now you need to either disable the dbus use flag or 
add dbus to package.unmask also.

Typically, that means you have qt unmasked.  The unmask trump the mask,
always.  You need to modify your unmask to have >=11-libs/qt-4.2.1 or
something similar, or unmask dbus.
