[gentoo-user] hal emerge conflict

[gentoo-user] hal emerge conflict

[Glenn Enright]

I installed kde3.5 which is great, but to do soI had to unmask some packages, 
including hal. So I have version 0.5.5.1 installed.

Unfortunately I also have gnome-light installed, which requires hal-0.4 for 
gnome-vfs. Any ideas on how I might solve this conflict. I dont really need 
gnome, but it has been drawn in by OOffice and has several other dependencies 
that I use such as firefox. In addition this is despite having -gnome in my 
use flags. Help!

TIA

Since you do not use gnome, you probably don't care whether gnome-vfs
supports hal or not:

echo "gnome-base/gnome-vfs -hal" >>/etc/portage/package.use

Of course! :) Simple elegant fix. Thanks for your insight.

This is funny.  I have gnome-vfs installed and KDE 3.5 with the new 
hal.  I wonder why it worked for me?

I have four rigs:

2:  Home built; Iwill KK266-R w/ AMD 1GHz CPU, 256MBs of ram and a 4GB drive.
3:  Home built; Gigabyte GA-71XE4 w/ 800MHz CPU, 128MBs of ram and a 2.5GB drive.
4:  Compaq Proliant 6000 Server w/ Quad 200MHz CPUs, 128MBs of ram and a 4.3GB SCSI drive.

All run Gentoo, all run folding. #1 is my desktop, 2, 3, and 4 are set up as servers.

I think you are right.  Maybe that is where gnome-vfs came from.  I did 
a gcc upgrade about the same time so it is a bit muddy.
