[gentoo-user] Gnome 3.8 - has anybody tried to unmask it

[Helmut Jarausch]

Hi,

I'm considering unmasking Gnome 3.8. Has anybody made good/bad  
experience with this?

Many thanks,
Helmut.

Sure, I have 3.8 running since about one week. Almost everything works. One
thing that does not work any more is suspending / hibernating from within
gnome. It seems like that this function may depend on systemds logind:

Don't top-post, please, even if it's the default for GMail.

I also got it unmasked since last week; but I'm using systemd, so
suspend works as well as usual ;)

Yes, stupid gmail, it was not my intention to top post.

Do you run a complete systemd system, or do you have USE="openrc" enabled
for systemd? I might try this in a VM.

Not only do I have a complete systemd system and have USE="-openrc"; I
maintain a little overlay that allows to actually uninstall OpenRC and
run Gentoo with systemd only:

Running it for several weeks already on 2 systems.

No real problems for me (although I don't use evolution or epiphany or
some other specific gnome-applications. Just using "the desktop").

I had to navigate around some special unmasking and some conflicts etc
back then but it is very likely that this isn't needed anymore (as these
issues are being cleaned up before releasing it to ~amd64).

Two questions:  where can I find the things to unmask and I thought that
3.8 depended on python3.3 which I can't emerge because of missing
keyword.  Also, speech-dispatcher v8 which I would need seems to depend
on python3.3 as well.

In /usr/portage/profiles/package.mask there a list of packages starting
with

# Pacho Ramos <pacho@gentoo.org> (28 Mar 2013)
# Gnome 3.8 Mask

going down till

# Sebastien Fabbro <bicatali@gentoo.org> (26 Mar 2013)
# Now included in sci-mathematics/mathgl
# Removal in 30 days.

Everything between those comments are packages that probably need
unmasking - depending on what you want to install.

It's in your portage tree:

/usr/portage/profiles/package.mask

Also:

http://sources.gentoo.org/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/gentoo-x86/profiles/package.mask

Look for "# Gnome 3.8 Mask". Put that in /etc/portage/package.unmask,
although you probably will not use all of those packages.

I'm running GNOME 3.8 with Python 3.2.3-r2
