Hello,
I'm particularly paranoid about my CUDA setup. I do not understand
CUDA except enough to declare that if my machine has CUDA 4.2
installed my life will be easy. This is because I compile software
that supposedly needs CUDA 4.2.
Can someone please translate the emerge -Dauv snip below into english for me?
My attempted translation: "portage is about to uninstall CUDA 4.2 and
replace it with CUDA 2.2 so enjoy your new life of misery sucker...
should've used OpenCL! Hahaha!"
I'll also post the top of dev-util/nvidia-cuda-sdk/ChangeLog
Thank you,
Chris

It says it's going to downgrade nvidia-cuda-sdk,but it doesn't say why.
For that:
$ eix dev-util/nvidia-cuda-sdk
* dev-util/nvidia-cuda-sdk
Available versions: 2.02.0807.1535^b (~)4.2.9-r2 (~)5.0.35-r1
{+cuda debug +doc emulation +examples opencl}

What's in your ACCEPT_KEYWORDS?
My guess is you have a stable system and cuda is not unmasked

Alan,
Thank you for your help. Based on your suggestion, I confirmed the
reason for the nvidia-cuda-sdk downgrade is that my package.keywords
suddenly no longer applies.
These are questions that still linger in my head:
Why does the atom "~dev-util/nvidia-cuda-sdk-4.2" NOT apply to
"dev-util/nvidia-cuda-sdk-4.2.9-r2"?
Why does the atom "~dev-util/nvidia-cuda-toolkit-4.2" INDEED apply to
"dev-util/nvidia-cuda-toolkit/4.2.9-r2" (see below)?
Thanks again,
Chris

It applies to version 4.2 and all revisions. 4.2.9 is a different version
You need one of
=dev-util/nvidia-cuda-sdk-4.2*

Chris,
You probably already spotted this but just in case
stable sdk is v2.02.0807.1535
stable toolkit is 4.2.9-r2

Alan,
I did not notice that. Thank you, it all makes sense now!
