[gentoo-user] Problems to update caused by nvidia-drivers?

[tuxic]

Hi,

I git this this morning:
These are the packages that would be merged, in reverse order:

Calculating dependencies... done!

!!! Multiple package instances within a single package slot have been pulled
!!! into the dependency graph, resulting in a slot conflict:

Looks like nvidia-drivers dont wants the update...or is there any way
around it -- except of masking the update?


Thanks for any help in advance!

Mask it.  Wait for Nvidia to update.

xorg-1.19.901 doesn't work with nvidia 390.25...I've tried.  The "901"
version of xorg is actually 1.20_rc1.

There's also a permissions problem floating around in the bug reports
which might be masking a working version.  But when I tried the xorg
package, it didn't work, so I'll just wait for either an all-clear
notice or a newer version of the nvidia-drivers.

Are you sure you need both input drivers?

Yes, but libinput is the default now [1][2]. If you doesn’t have any 
reason to keep both installed, I would simply go the mainstream route 
and probably bypass some issues [3].

You don't need to mask anything. Portage is simply telling you, in its
own cryptic way, that the newer xorg doesn't work with nvidia-drivers.
Effectively it has created the mask for you and will remove it when the
time is right. If you mask it manually, you won't know when to unmask it
and that may cause problems later.
