Yes indeed I have it masked for exactly that reason. I will be going to a combined / + /usr when the semester ends. I use this machine for my lectures and assignments so prefer to break it from late may through august. I just tried masking the -r2 (and higher) pciutils. But this conflicts with a newly-required hwids-2012-0401. The later is required by a new usbutils-005-r1 This led me to mask >=usbutils-005-r1. Now the proposed update world leaves portage happy, but me worried. I haven't actually done the update world. It is reasonably to have so much masking? (The output of the update --ask world is below) I am wondering if it would be safer to not update at all for 6 weeks. Then, with the semester over, try the huge update and if it is too hard to get working, do a reinstall. That certainly doesn't sound appealing. Does the following seem like too much masking or does it seem reasonable? in /etc/portage/package.mask (a directory) I have. README # First masked udev-181 to postpone needing to combine / and /usr # This then required masking consolekit # At that point things were OK for a while # # Now (2 april) I need to mask the new pciutils since the new one # causes a mysterious-to-me slot conflict. # This mask blocks hwids, which a new usbutils requires. # So I mask the new usbutils. # Now portage is willing to do the update. Success?? # The lvm mask is related but is probably a bug in lvm # (https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=409921) so I have # that one in a separate file udev-181 >=sys-fs/udev-181 >=sys-auth/consolekit-0.4.5-r3 >=sys-apps/pciutils-3.1.9-r2 >=sys-apps/usbutils-005-r1 lvm-2.01.95 >=sys-fs/lvm2-2.02.95 allan PS. I still don't understand the two error msgs from portage given in my previous msg, neither of which indicate to me a real problem. But that is more for my education and ability to decipher them better in the future than for fixing any problem. PPS. Here is the pre-update output from update --ask world ajglap gottlieb # mount /mnt/junk; PORTAGE_TMPDIR=/mnt/junk/portage-tmpdir emerge --keep-going --update --newuse --with-bdeps=y world; umount /mnt/junk * IMPORTANT: 1 news items need reading for repository 'gentoo'. * Use eselect news to read news items.
