[gentoo-user] No more xorg upgrade?

[Robert Cernansky]

Hello,

I've recently synced. emerge -up world do not want to upgrade xorg-x11 to
7.0. Only upgrade from 6.8.2-r7 to 6.8.2-r8 is printed. Before this sync, the
xorg-x11 wants to be upgraded from 6.8.2-r7 to 7.0-r1.

Previous sync I did shortly after modular xorg becomes stable. I did not update
xorg yet nor did emerge -u world. It seems to be portage bug, isn't it?

Normal "world" update:

$ emerge -up world | grep xorg
[ebuild     U ] x11-base/xorg-x11-6.8.2-r8 [6.8.2-r7] USE="dlloader*" 

When merging directly xorg-x11 it want to upgrade to 7.0-r1:

$ emerge -up xorg-x11 | grep xorg-x11-7.0
[blocks B     ] <=x11-base/xorg-x11-6.9 (is blocking x11-base/xorg-x11-7.0-r1)
[ebuild     U ] x11-base/xorg-x11-7.0-r1 [6.8.2-r7] INPUT_DEVICES="evdev% keyboard% mouse% -acecad% -aiptek% -calcomp% -citron% -digitaledge% -dmc% -dynapro% -elo2300% -elographics% -fpit% -hyperpen% -jamstudio% -joystick% -magellan% -magictouch% -microtouch% -mutouch% -palmax% -penmount% -spaceorb% -summa% -synaptics% -tek4957% -ur98% -vmmouse% -void% -wacom%" VIDEO_CARDS="-apm% -ark% -chips% -cirrus% -cyrix% -dummy% -fbdev% -fglrx% -glint% -i128% -i810% -mach64% -mga% -neomagic% -nv% -nvidia% -r128% -radeon% -rendition% -s3% -s3virge% -savage% -siliconmotion% -sis% -sisusb% -tdfx% -tga% -trident% -tseng% -v4l% -vesa% -vga% -via% -vmware% -voodoo%" 

Also when merging some package (which depend on X) with --update switch, it
also wants correctly to upgrade xorg to 7.0.

$ emerge -up xscreensaver | grep xorg-x11-7.0
[blocks B     ] <=x11-base/xorg-x11-6.9 (is blocking x11-base/xorg-x11-7.0-r1)
[ebuild     U ] x11-base/xorg-x11-7.0-r1 [6.8.2-r7] INPUT_DEVICES="evdev%...

No, xorg-x11-7.0 is modular X. You must remove manually xorg and 
reemerge it.
Follow the guide:

I think you missed the OP original question. To me it seems that the
first emerge -up wanted to upgrade its X to modular X 7.0; he synced
again *without* emerging anything, and now portage doesn't ask him to
upgrade anymore.
