I get dependency problems in my normal update world that I can't
understand. The entire output is below.
As far as I can tell gnome-2.32.1-r1 (which is installed) is requiring
packages from gnome-3, which must be wrong. I don't see any such
dependencies in the ebuild for gnome-2.32.1-r1 and there is an "official
mask list" (which I am using) for those of us who want to
delay installing gnome-3 for a while.
My conclusion that gnome-2... is requiring gnome-3 packages (which I
know is wrong) comes from two points in the output below.
1. The indenting of the --tree --verbose output seems to say this
(e.g., the first two lines say gnome-2... depends on nautilus-3)
2. The comments related to mask changes at the bottom say
evince-3... is required by gnome-2...
Please help.
thanks,
allan

Without doing any digging (I'm 100mi away from my Gentoo boxes and
sitting on satellite internet, so SSH is painful), I would presume the
packages pulling in those dependencies aren't specifying a maximum
version, so it's not that they're "requiring" gnome 3 packages,
they're requiring gnome packages and are choosing to use the newest,
which happens to be part of 3, meaning the gnome 2 ebuilds would need
updated to require version < 3.0 to avoid it automatically, and
possibly block on mixing 2 and 3 if the mixing really does give
issues.
In /etc/portage/package.mask (untested, for the aforementioned reasons), add:
>=gnome-base/nautilus-3
>=app-text/evince-3

All the gnome-3 packages are masked (package.mask).
Indeed, at the end of my output (see prev msg) you see recommendations
from emerge for me to remove some masks.

Just working from memory here. Try removing the version number:

It was more subtle than I thought. A big tip from Alexandre Rostovtsev
suggested that the problem might be that some package other than
gnome-base/gnome might be requiring nautilus-3 *OR introspection*.
Sure enough the new evince was the culprit. I put in a workaround for
today but everything should be fine tomorrow due to ...

Great. So tomorrow, my resync will find nautilus...-r2 and I will be
able to remove
app-text/evince -introspection
from package.use.
(That is the workaround I put in today to permit an update world to
proceed without gnome-3).
Case closed!

Cool!
A perfect example why we ought to report on bugs. It might save someone
else from a teeth-gritting hardship, even when handling a totally unrelated
package.
Well done, Gentoo-ers :-)
