[gentoo-user] Slot war on my system

[gentoo-user] Slot war on my system

[Michael Sullivan]

I have been fighting with this for at least three weeks now.   Most of
the conflicting packages are qt-based, between 4.8.1 (which I want) and
4.7.4 (which I don't want).  I have rebuilt every package I can find
again 4.8.1, but emerge still wants to install 4.7.4, despite the fact
that I've altered my /etc/portage/package.mask file to try to keep them
away.  Here's my /etc/portage/package.mask:

michael@camille currentmnt $ cat /etc/portage/package.mask

Here's a shortened version of what I get when I run python-updater:

It may be possible to solve this problem by using package.mask to
prevent one of those packages from being selected. However, it is also
possible that conflicting dependencies exist such that they are
impossible to satisfy simultaneously.  If such a conflict exists in
the dependencies of two different packages, then those packages can
not be installed simultaneously. You may want to try a larger value of
the --backtrack option, such as --backtrack=30, in order to see if
that will solve this conflict automatically.

For more information, see MASKED PACKAGES section in the emerge man
page or refer to the Gentoo Handbook.


The following mask changes are necessary to proceed:

NOTE: The --autounmask-keep-masks option will prevent emerge
      from creating package.unmask or ** keyword changes.

Use --autounmask-write to write changes to config files (honoring
CONFIG_PROTECT).

How do I get the system to stop bothering me about qt-*-*-4.7.4?

The output that most helps resolve this is emerge world with the -t
option. It lets you see in a tree everything that pulls in unwanted
packages (but it's very verbose).

You might have a very few KDE misc packages in world that depend on
earlier versions and haven't been updated yet.

Also useful is to grep for kde and the in the world file and see what
you have explicitly listed there.

I think that is your culprit.

When did you last sync your portage tree?  bluedevil-1.1-r2 was removed
from the main tree on 2011-10-31 and libbluedevil-1.9 on 2012-02-24.

But his emerge wants to install qt-4.8.1, added to the tree 29 Mar
2012 and 4.8.1-r1 went stable 20 May 2012. So while I agree he should
sync a tad more often, I don't think that is his real problem.

More likely he has Qt packages in world that are now dropped, or not
updated to 4.8.1. As well as bluedevil stuff in there as well.

It's looking more and more like the OP uses plain emerge to install
libs and such things, instead of the much better (by keeping them out
of world) "emerge -1"

I try to keep my world file clean.  I use -1 whenever merging anything I
don't actually want.  I don't want bluedevil (or any of that wireless
crap), but a few years ago the system started requiring bluez and I
couldn't get out of it.  I do not ever plan to use wireless on this box...

Do you have the bluetooth USE flag set?

Have you emerged kde-meta?

I have emerged kde-meta, but until this morning I didn't have the
bluetooth flag, no.  Now I have -bluetooth in /etc/make.conf

When you say you didn't have the flag, do you mean you hadn't explicitly
set it in make.conf? It is set by default in some profiles, only emerge
--info will tell you what flags are actually set.

you know - cleaning up useflags helps. Keeping local overlays clean too. And 
keeping portage-tree current.

You seem to have done neither.
