[gentoo-user] trouble with preserved-rebuild

[gentoo-user] trouble with preserved-rebuild

[covici]

Hi.  I am having problems with emerge @preserved-rebuild which used to
work fine, but on the latest time I tried it, I got the following
message:
These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies ... done!

emerge: there are no ebuilds to satisfy "dev-libs/apr-util:0".

Is it broke, because this is still true after re-emerging apr-util?  I
am using unstable x86.


Thanks.

Is /var/lib/portage/world specifying a specific version that the
developers have removed from portage? If so you might removed that
from the world file and then either emerge the current version or
emerge -DuN @world.

Just an idea.

                                                        ^^^^^^
There is no SLOT 0 for apr-util

Use equery depends apr-util to find out what used it and rebuild those.

what exactly did you do and what output did you get from equery?

I emerged the packages mentioned in the equery -- I don't have the
output, although I can do it now.

 * Searching for apr-util ...
app-admin/apache-tools-2.2.12 (=dev-libs/apr-util-1*)
dev-util/subversion-1.6.4-r10 (>=dev-libs/apr-util-1.3:1)
www-servers/apache-2.2.12 (=dev-libs/apr-util-1*)

I emerged the packages mentioned -- without using the version numbers
and when I did the emerge @preserved-rebuild again I got the same
results as before.

portage somehow thinks you have apr-utils:0 installed, or need to have it 
installed. Check the following:

Is it in the world file?
Check versions and SLOTS for apr-utils in /var/db/pkg/
Check the output of "eix -e apr-util" to see what exactly you have - keep in 
mind that a package without a SLOT is 0 by default. I suspect the devs bumped 
apr-util to SLOT=1

Well, I did have two versions in there -- there was a 0.9.12 and when I
got rid of that things went back to normal -- its emerging 32 packages
now.  I deleted it from the world file as well.

Thanks so much for your help.
