Packages should depend on virtual/libgudev, which avoids this type of conflict. Run the update again --tree to see just what is trying to install libgudev. > Total: 75 packages (64 upgrades, 1 downgrade, 7 new, 2 in new slots, 1 > reinstall), Size of downloads: 273,248 KiB Conflict: 3 blocks (3 > unsatisfied) In this situation, with so many packages being updated, I try to reduce the noise from portage by emerge --oneshot-ing anything in the list that is not related to the blockers, it makes the tree output much easier to work with. --=20 Neil Bothwick Some people are born mediocre, some people achieve mediocrity, and some people have mediocrity thrust upon them. - Joseph Heller, "Catch-22" --Sig_/twBChNGWRG5IMU35EB1RHdp Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iEYEARECAAYFAlXkFVAACgkQum4al0N1GQMypwCgsAlXCzzoG+0KtOv/WwQYm7zF ZegAoMnxus1AygwaJLsRULdglivLqV4b =sJxJ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Sig_/twBChNGWRG5IMU35EB1RHdp--
