Subject: [gentoo-user] Stray dependency on virtual/x11-7.0-r2
Date: Sat, 16 Sep 2006 23:18:08 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <9acccfe50609162318k3563171fib797ef39fc195998@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

I just switched to modular X, and got to the point where the system
comes up okay.
I have a few remaining puzzles and problems.  Here's one:

When I do emerge -aDvu world, it wants to emerge
[ebuild  N    ] virtual/x11-7.0-r2  USE="dri" 0 kB

The migration guide says this can happen when there's an outdated package.
But equery says there are well over 100 such packages that depend on
virtual/x11.  And they're all up to date.  I've been running stable so far, with
very few exceptions.  Am I really to go unstable with all of these?  This seems
extreme in view of the fact that a great many of them are KDE things, but
KDE seems to be working just fine.

What's a guy to do?  Can I get away with just waiting for a while?
