[gentoo-user] Unmerged older KDE, revdep-rebuild fails (no ebuild)

[gentoo-user] Unmerged older KDE, revdep-rebuild fails (no ebuild)

[Maxime Robert-Schreyers]

Hi all,

I've emerged KDE 3.5 last week (unmasking it in 
/etc/portage/package.unmask and /etc/portage/package.keywords)
I had no trouble at all, but noticed 3.1, 3.2 and 3.3 were still there, 
so I tried to clean those. I did

equery list -p kde | grep "3.3" | xargs emerge unmerge -p

It worked fine too, but then I tried revdep-rebuild -- -p and it tries 
to re-emerge kde-base/kdebase-3.2.3-r1 and
mail-client/mozilla-thunderbird-1.0.2 but doesn't find ebuilds for them.
Furthermore, I don't want to have kdebase-3.2 reinstalled.

My questions are 1st: what does the fact that revdep-rebuild doesn't 
complete imply on the state of my system,
is it important ?
                             2nd: if so, how can I fix it ? Is there a 
way without reinstalling kdebase-3.2 ?


Thanks in advance,
Maxime

Something you still have installed depends on kdebase-3.2.
Run emerge -utvD world to see what it is and either unmerge it or
re-emerge it.

Thanls for the reply. here's the output:

nonpoint ~ # emerge -utvDa world

These are the packages that I would merge, in reverse order:

Calculating world dependencies ...done!
[nomerge      ] media-video/dvdrip-0.52.0  +cdr -gnome
[nomerge      ]  media-video/vcdimager-0.7.21  -minimal +xml2
[ebuild     U ]   dev-libs/libcdio-0.75-r1 [0.73] -cddb -minimal 1,768 kB
[nomerge      ] app-portage/eix-0.3.0-r2  +bash-completion
[ebuild  N    ]  app-shells/bash-completion-config-0.8-r2  106 kB

It doesn't show anything about kdebase :-/

Am i missing some cleaning step before revdep or the re-emerge ?

Try revdep-rebuild --package-names.

try the same coomand without the -u ie;
	emerge -Davt world

should show quite a few results

It didn't show any result at all.
And now revdep completes ok... I don't know what's happened here... I only
emerged libcdio, and everything seems magically fine.

Anyway, thanks for helping, I at least learnd about emerge's -t flag.

Thanks for the tip. As I say in my answer to Glenn, I emerged libcdio, 
then everything went ok...
I don't get it but it's fixed.

Thanks for helping :-)
