Hello Jayson Smith

I had the same problem. I solved it with:

host# emerge --nodeps --update net-ftp/proftpd
and than
host# emerge --deep --update world


I hope this is the right way to solve the problem.

Andy comments?

Betreff: [gentoo-user] One package is blocking another?
Datum: Thu, 11 Aug 2005 01:19:52 -0400

Hi,
Several days ago I did an 'emerge --ask --nospinner -u world' to update my
software as normal, but was told that ftpbase-0.00 was blocking
proftpd-1.something.  What, exactly, does this mean and what do I do about
it?  I want to continue using Proftpd, and don't know what Ftpbase is. 
Any
help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Jayson.

The reason that the package was blocked was (from the changelog):

 08 Jul 2005; Gustavo Felisberto <humpback@gentoo.org>;
  +proftpd-1.2.10-r6.ebuild:
  New revision that uses the new net-ftp/ftpbase. Nice work there UberLord.

The ftpbase functionality was removed from this version of proftpd onwards. ftpbase was unable to be installed with previous versions of proftpd installed as they both use the same files (if I recall correctly). 
As Olli posted from the man page 
Blockers are defined when two packages will clobber each others files.

As emerge wants to build the dependencies of the new version of proftpd first (ie ftpbase), however it is unable to build ftpbase with the old version of proftpd installed.

Your method of updating is just fine and avoids this conflict.
I hope this makes sense,
Peter
