[gentoo-user] portage blockage gnome-control-center vs gnome-media

[gentoo-user] portage blockage gnome-control-center vs gnome-media

[Allan Gottlieb]

I was away for 2 weeks and am trying to "update world" on several
systems.

One system is ~x86 with the gnome overlay.  I am getting a blockage.
The output is

[blocks B      ]   <gnome-extra/gnome-media-2.32.0-r300 ("<gnome-extra/gnome-media-2.32.0-r300" is blocking media-libs/libgnome-media-profiles-3.0.0, gnome-base/gnome-control-center-3.0.2)

However this didn't help

It's installing Gnome 3 stuff.

Is that what you want?

Look at your unmasking rules.

Yes.  That is why I am using the gnome overlay

They were supposed to be the ones that came with the instructions for
moving to gnome 3.  But I didn't realize that eix-update doesn't update
layman and I need layman -S.  It is still not working but I will study
the new blockages arising after layman -S.

Thanks for the tip.

That caught me out a few times too. I put these commands into a bash 
alias:

emerge --sync
layman -S
eix-update

and use that to sync portage. That way I don't leave steps out.

$ man eix
(...)
/etc/eix-sync.conf
       This  file  stores  commands and configurations to apply with eix-sync.
(...)
       *      Call layman -S (i.e. overlays are synced with layman).

Hope that helps.

PS After todays portage sync, there are no blocks.

Congratulations, you reinvented the "eix-sync" command. :)

You can put a list of layman overlays to be synced in
/etc/eix-sync.conf or a line simply containing an asterisk (*) to sync
'em all.

You can also put arbitrary post-sync commands in there, like if you
have an overlay that needs an egencache update or if you have some
local patches that you always apply to an ebuild from an overlay. (I
think most of that sort of thing is not necessary anymore because of
other, better ways of handling that.)

You caught me out :-)

There was a reason (a good one) why I did that several years ago, but 
for the life of me I can't think what it was.

"several years ago" should be my clue to assume the reason is no 
longer valid ....

if eix-sync fails with one of the overlays, all fails.
if one overlay fails doing it step by step you can do all the other stuff 
without worrying about it.

Sounds familiar, odds are good that's what drove me to take the long 
road.

I take it eix-sync still has this same behaviour?
