[gentoo-dev] xorg-x11-7 emerge blocks

[Massimiliano Bellomo]

Hi,
i've this problem with emerge -uD world:

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Calculating world dependencies ...done!

a lot of blocks by a phantom package xorg-x11-7 !!
Any ideas ??

Thanks,
    cheers,

Don't post such questions here. Go to the gentoo-user mailing list, the 
forums, or irc. This list is for discussion of Gentoo development.

Actually, this is a discussion of X-modular, and up to now, all
X-modular posts have come here (it is very much a -dev issue; the
X-modular suite is masked, unless something has changed quite recently.)

It was a matter of misunderstanding emerge output (block by <xorg-x11-7, and 
the OP apparently missed the <). Thus nothing to do with the modular X. It 
was also crossposted to gentoo-user. IMHO mostly any question about using 
portage correctly, which is suitable to gentoo-user, is not suitable to 
gentoo-dev.

Maybe I was too harsh in the tone of my reply. If so I apologize.

Well, maybe so.  However that missing '<' is kind of important, and when 
playing with X-modular, the portage output really looks like the modular 
packages are blocking the non-existent xorg-x11-7.  It's not a "matter of 
using portage correctly" because portage is misreporting the (phantom) 
problem.

As I recall, it looks like this (for example):
x11-base/xorg-server-xxx [B x11-base/xorg-x11-7]
which without that little '<' is, shall we say, wrong.  Since (so far as I 
know) it arises only in the X-modular context, this is the right place for 
the question.  (With '<' it's true but irrelevant, but portage is being 
misled into believing xorg-x11 is required.  R. Hill addressed that issue in
another post.)

Or maybe it arises elsewhere too?

Indeed - and it has nothing to do with modular X. There are other !<foo-N deps 
in portage.

Example output from the OP:

[blocks B     ] <x11-base/xorg-x11-7 (is blocking x11-proto/kbproto-1.0-r1)

The < is there, and portage isn't misreporting. You just have to read 
carefully.

# find /usr/portage -name '*.ebuild' | xargs grep -He '!\w*<'
gives lots of results.

xorg-x11-7 is probably the only case where the max version being blocked (7) 
doesn't exist. But that doesn't stop one from understanding the < blocking 
dep.
