[gentoo-user] Seamonkey blocking mozilla and the mozilla blocking seamonkey

[gentoo-user] Seamonkey blocking mozilla and the mozilla blocking seamonkey

[Jacob Klitmøller]

Hi

Since Gnome 2.14 is marked stable I thought to upgrade :-)

However when I try to emerge gnome I get

[blocks B     ] www-client/seamonkey (is blocking www-client/mozilla-1.7.13)

or the other way around (mozilla blocking seamonkey) - trying to /etc
/portage/package.mask is of no use since both is required. I have also
tried fiddeling fith USE, but with no luck.

How do I resolve this and get gnome 2.14 emerged?

Thanks

Jacob

I got around it by un-merging mozilla, adding the "firefox" USE flags
and then emerging seamonkey.

If 2.14 is stable, why do I get:

rattus ~ # emerge gnome -vp

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies... done!
[ebuild   R   ] gnome-base/gnome-2.12.3  USE="cdr dvdr hal
-accessibility" 0 kB

Total size of downloads: 0 kB

synced yesterday.

Maybe an old profile? Where does /etc/make.profile point to?

so I would expect them to be the same!)

But it's more probable, that you forgot to mention one very important
thing... One which arch are you? gnome is stable on the arch, that still
most of the people use: i386. So, if you're on something different, you
should say so.

That might be the problem. It went stable yesterday, see
http://packages.gentoo.org/ebuilds/?gnome-2.14.2

Yep, thats it.  A sync this morning and its available - must have missed
it by only a short time with the previous sync!

I have been waiting for this to appear, and seeing someone ask that it
had been stable, I assumed that it had been out awhile and I was missing
out on the good stuff :)

Use emerge -uDpt to give a tree so you can see what package is pulling
in mozilla.

Mozilla has become Seamonkey, it might be that you need to remove
Mozilla to allow the updated ebuild (and name change) to take effect.

I have noticed there is one package (gtk-sharp i think) that still
depends on Mozilla instead of Seamonkey, I have just created a temp
ebuild, a copy of the original with the mozilla to seamonkey change and
stuck it in my overlay.

Hope that helps
