Howdy,

Just installed the base system and xserver. As I went to emerge xfce4 as 
shown here http://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Xfce
emerge --ask xfce4-meta xfce4-notifyd, I got a slot conflict:
sys-ath/pambase-20101024-r2::gentoo, installed
sys-auth/pambase-20120417-r2::gentoo, scheduled for merge.

How do I resolve this conflict please?

Thanks.

Alexander Kapshuk.

That looks like partial output, there's information missing that says
why the conflict is happening. Please post the output of (run as root):

emerge -pv pambase
emerge --info

Please don't use pastebins here, they go away.

Post inline into the body of the mail.

Sorry about that. I wasn't aware of the policy.

I haven't installed a mail client yet. Just installed twm and xterm.

Is there any other way I can sent the info required to the mailing list?

Thanks.

Don't worry about it. It's not really a policy as such; it's more like
the way things have always been done. This list is a treasure trove of
useful postings that the rest of the internet finds useful for years to
come, so the regulars have come to expect pasted output to be inline.

Here's your emerge pambase output:

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

I suspect your original error was actually a conflict between shadow and
pambase and you probably snipped that part in error.

Try this first:

emerge -av1 shadow

it should upgrade shadow to 4.1.5.1-r1 just fine. Then:

emerge --sync
emerge -avuND world


and then emerge xfce (the original command).

If emerging shadow by itself gives an error, then just go onto sync and
emerging world, these days portage knows how to figure it's way round
all the conflicts (it wasn't always like that....)

I am emerging xfce at the moment.

Glad to have helped.

This Gentoo thing takes some getting used to, but it's well worth the
effort :-)

I find gmail web client does two things badly:

- proper quoting in replies
- pasting stuff

The first I comprehend how it is that way. The second, that just baffles
me stupid.

I pasted his pastebin back into my reply. It just seemed easier :-)
