[gentoo-user] Multiple package instances within a single package slot

[gentoo-user] Multiple package instances within a single package slot

[Alex Schuster]

Hi there!

Some may remember me from posting here often. But since a year, I have a
new life, and much less time for sitting at my computer. Sigh. And my
beloved Gentoo got a little outdated.

So, a @world update does not work. I thought I give emerge -e @world a
try, this should sort out the problems, but this also does not go well.

I don't want to bother you with the whole lot of output emerge gives me,
and just ask a specific question at the moment. I get the 'Multiple
package instances within a single package slot have been pulled into the
dependency graph, resulting in a slot conflict' message, and several
affected packages. One example is claws:

mail-client/claws-mail:0

   (mail-client/claws-mail-3.9.0-r1::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge)
   pulled in by ~mail-client/claws-mail-3.9.0 required by
   (mail-client/claws-mail-address_keeper-1.0.7::gentoo, ebuild scheduled
   for merge)

   (mail-client/claws-mail-3.9.2::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge)
   pulled in by (no parents that aren't satisfied by other packages in
   this slot)

Looking at the ebuild, I see that claws-mail-address_keeper rdepends on
claws-mail-3.9.0. But being on ~amd86, 3.9.2 would be current.

I can solve this by masking versions greater than 3.9.0. Two questions:

Why can't portage deal with this itself, and simply install the highest
version that fulfills all requirements?

And how do I notice an update to claws-mail-address_keeper that would
allow a newer version of claws-mail? Other than remembering those masks
and go through them once in a while?

Similar problems happen with sys-boot/syslinux, pulled in by
sys-boot/unetbootin, media-sound/jack-audio-connection-kit, pulled in by
app-emulation/emul-linux-x86-soundlibs, and all dev-qt packages, where I
did not yet figure out what to do.

I am running portage 2.2.7.

No, that is not the right assumption.

Portage doesn't guess what versions are dependencies, it reads the
ebuild and does exactly what the ebuild says.

The ebuild for claws-mail-address_keeper say it depends on
~claws-mail-3.9.0, that means any revision of 3.9.0.

Portage *must not* decide to use 3.9.1 or 3.9.2, because the ebuild has
clearly told it not to.

The solution is to get the maintainer to bump the DEPENDS for that
plugin, or to use claws-mail-3.9.0, or to stop using that plugin.


emerge output is confusing. The last line you quoted is just portage
telling you that 3.9.2 would normally be the choice it would make, but
the lines above it says it's going to pick 3.9.0 instead,a nd why

See above. It could deal with it if the ebuild didn't tell it something
different

emerge -avuND world

will tell you when updates are available

Often with a box that is a while out of date, it is easier to just
unmerge blocking packages and add them back in. I've had this with Qt
more than once.

Your use of --emptytree makes it slightly harder to determine from the 
above output, because the conflict messages will not correctly 
distinguish merged (installed) packages from those that are yet to be 
merged.

Do you have mail-client/claws-mail-address_keeper in your world file? If 
so, that would mandate its installation as part of the @world set (no if 
or buts). In turn, that would exhibit a hard dependency on 
claws-mail-3.9.0, which obviously cannot co-exist with 3.9.2, even if 
you have unmasked it.

Try removing the entry from the world file if it's there, then seeing 
whether the conflict is handled any differently.

As of the 3.9.1 ebuild, there is a comment above the collection of 
blocks that states:

"Plugins are all integrated or dropped since 3.9.1"

Further, from the 3.9.1 release notes:

"All plugins previously packaged as 'Extra Plugins' are now contained 
within the Claws Mail package."

Thus, it's possible that the address_keeper plugin has been folded into 
the core. In turn, that would explain why it must block the plugin as a 
separate package.

I get some more errors without --emptytree (media-libs/x264,
dev-libs/icu, dev-libs/boost, app-text/poppler, dev-util/boost-build,
dev-lang/ocaml, x11-base/xorg-server), so I gave -e a try.

Sure.

Right.

I guess this would install 3.9.2, as there's no reason not to do this.

Good catch! Thanks, also to Neil. I unmerged this plugin, and claws
updates just fine.

Well. Sort of. Emerge also wanted to re-merge libreoffice, I have no idea
why. The same happened yesterday when I upgraded portage. Whatever :) This
time, I used --exclude app-office/libreoffice to avoid this.

probably a poppler or icu or java update, or any one of the many things
libreoffice uses that changes ABI at the drop of a hat.

Recent portage with subslot support triggers a libreoffice rebuild when
that happens, it is seldom an error. You can leave it out of the world
emerge to speed things up, but revdep-rebuild is probably going to also
find it and want to do the same

No, there is something wrong here. When I updated portage, it also
remerged libreoffice. Upgrading claws-mail updated dev-libs/libdbusmenu
and dev-libs/libindicate, and wanted to remerge libreoffice, which I
avoided.
Next, I updated chromium, which also remerged libreoffice. Again.

And whatever package I try to update, emerge wants to remerge
libreoffice. Happens with all the packages I tried, which are
adobe-flash, python, zsh, xterm.

Please run:

emerge wgetpaste && emerge -Djptuv --changed-use @world |& wgetpaste

If you already have wgetpaste just run:

emerge -Djptuv --changed-use @world |& wgetpaste

and post the link it outputs.

Posts here are archived forever, pastebins are not. The information in
them is lost forever. Rather just stick the output in the body of a mail
where it can be directly read by the person who needs to read it.

If portage believes LO needs to be rebuilt, it will try to do so
whichever packages you are emerging, just let it happen. With a suitable
--jobs setting, portage will emerge all the other packages before LO is
done.

I already did that, twice, when updating portage and chromium. emerge
still wants to remerge libreoffice whenever I upgrade a package.

No, at least with portage, the installation happened after libreoffice was
installed.

weird ~ # emerge -1uaj portage

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Now that you have upgraded portage, does this behaviour (always wanting
to rebuild LO) still happen?

As a workround, you could remove LO from your world file, do your updates
but don't depclean, then put it back with

emerge -n libreoffice

It may be quicker than trying to track down the cause.

Yes. As I wrote, I upgraded portage (and LO), then claws (excluding LO
this time), then chromium (along with LO). No more packages yet, but
every upgrade would remerge LO.
Downgrading to portage 2.2.6 does not help.

I don't worry about this. I will add --exclude app-office/libreoffice to
EMERGE_DEFAULTS_OPTS, and wait for the bug to be fixed by someone.

Ah yes, I forgot about that option. A simpler way of doing the same
thing. I'd use a specific version so that you don't miss out on updates.

Claws Mail plugins are now part of the main ebuild, upstream moved them
into the main tarball with their building handled by ./configure. If you
unmerge all plugins, claws-mail should update and build whichever plugins
your USE flags desire.

[gentoo-user] Multiple package instances within a single package slot

[Valmor de Almeida]

Hello,

I would appreciate help with this multiple-packages-in-a-single slot
problem. In the past I have unistalled packages and reinstalled on a
case-by-case basis and dealt with the fall out manually. I wonder
whether there is a more efficient way of doing it.

Thanks,

I'm fairly new to Gentoo so might not be the best to help here but from
my experience when two versions of one package are involved and it says
no parents arn't satisfied by others on several occasions specifying
that package explicitly on the command line has worked for me, I suspect
it might work in the other case here also as it's a virtual package
having an issue.  It seems to get more fun when two "real" packages
decide they want different and mutually incompatible versions of a
package then sometimes masking a specified version temporarily seems to
work for some I had one recently that simply didn't want to resolve
until I decided enough was enough and opted not to bother with the one
package triggering a dependency that it liked and half the rest of the
system didn't.

  I had a similar problem during a recent installation when I converted
from udev to eudev.  "emerge --update --newuse --deep world" spewed out
those error messages.  However, "emerge world" (no options) ran OK.
Then I was able to unmerge udev and emerge eudev, the command...
"emerge --update --newuse --deep world" ran OK after that.  Reminds me
of the joke about insanity... doing the same thing and expecting a
different result.  In this case, I assume that "emerge world" resolved
some issues, and got the system back into a sane state.

  To repeat...
Step 1) "emerge world"
Step 2) "emerge --update --newuse --deep world"

                  ^^^^^^

Don't do that, rather run it on world; or you could do "emerge -pv
@system" Modern portage versions deal with these blockers automatically,
but they need the whole dependency graph to do it. There's no much point
in trying to deal with system and world independently anyway, system
isn't something magical, it's nothing more than a minimum collection of
packages that Gentoo can still run on, a mere list.

-ND to rebuild system doesn't get you anything extra and usually wants
to evaluate half of world as well (usually due to USE=X)

You update system if you want to guarantee yourself a consistent
toolchain after a gcc or glibc update, or just prior to emerge -e world

Thanks for the info. Did it on world and got

-------------------------
-> USE="pulseaudio sqlite libkms cups apng minizip hwdb" emerge -vp
--newuse --tree --update --deep world

These are the packages that would be merged, in reverse order:

[snip]

[blocks B      ]  <sys-fs/udev-186 ("<sys-fs/udev-186" is blocking
sys-fs/udev-init-scripts-23)
[blocks B      ]  <sys-apps/sysvinit-2.88-r4
("<sys-apps/sysvinit-2.88-r4" is blocking sys-apps/util-linux-2.22.2)

Total: 126 packages (91 upgrades, 12 new, 6 in new slots, 17
reinstalls, 1 uninstall), Size of downloads: 989,597 kB
Conflict: 7 blocks
------------------------

I have udev-171 at the moment and I have read and followed the
instructions in the eselect news for the udev upgrade. I would
appreciate any pointers on how to deal with this particular blocking.

Thanks,

First of all, don't put USE on the command line for emerge. It is not
stored and when you do the real emerge the results will be different if
you omit the USE. If you leave it in then portage doesn't know you did
it and complains bitterly with the next emerge claiming that flags
changed. Use make.conf like it is supposed to be used, don't try
second-guess portage.

Secondly, udev and sysvinit have higher versions marked stable. Portage
should just update them but apparently is not. I suspect you have masked
them in package.mask to avoid all the recefuss about udev, meaning you
have caused your own problem.

If you are happy moving to recent udev, then let portage do it.
If not, then you are on your own and have to figure out the masking
yourself. It will involve masking every new version of software that
shows up as a blocker like udev-init-scripts and util-linux. Eventually
you will run into an unsolveable conflict, maybe we are even already there
