Gnome update issues


jochenf

Question

Hello,

 

2 days ago I installed Funtoo following this guide: http://www.funtoo.org/Funtoo_Linux_Installation

 

I took me 2 days to compile X11, Gnome and Firefox. Now it ist ready and I tried an update with "emerge --sync" and then "emerge -uavDN @world". But that did not work because there are several conflicts.

 

First, there was a conflict in empathy, forcing a different version of udev than needed. I solved it by using a package USE flag that prevents this dependency (-v8i or something like that).

 

But next there is a problem with metacity, which is masked.

jochen@localhost:~$ sudo emerge -uavDN @world

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

The following mask changes are necessary to proceed:
 (see "package.unmask" in the portage(5) man page for more details)
# required by gnome-extra/gnome-tweak-tool-3.14.0
# required by gnome-base/gnome-extra-apps-3.14.1-r1
# required by gnome-base/gnome-3.14.1[extras]
# required by @selected
# required by @world (argument)
# /usr/portage/profiles/package.mask/00-gentoo:
# Pacho Ramos <pacho@gentoo.org> (11 Oct 2014)
# Masked for removal in a month.
# Obsolete and unmaintained for years. You should switch
# to one of the many available alternatives like (#508854):
# - >=gnome-base/gnome-3.12 (either with standard or 'Classic' modes)
# - gnome-extra/cinnamon
# - mate-base/mate
# - xfce-base/xfce4-meta
# - ...
#<media-libs/clutter-gst-2.0.10
=x11-wm/metacity-3.14.1

NOTE: The --autounmask-keep-masks option will prevent emerge
      from creating package.unmask or ** keyword changes.

Use --autounmask-write to write changes to config files (honoring
CONFIG_PROTECT). Carefully examine the list of proposed changes,
paying special attention to mask or keyword changes that may expose
experimental or unstable packages.

I then tried the following, also with no success:

jochen@localhost:~$ sudo emerge -uavDN @world --autounmask-keep-masks

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

For more information, see the MASKED PACKAGES section in the emerge

Nothing to merge; would you like to auto-clean packages? [Yes/No] yes
>>> >>> Auto-cleaning packages...

>>> >>> No outdated packages were found on your system.

Is there any chance to get a working system again?

Thank you, that fixed it. But now still one problem remains:

WARNING: One or more updates have been skipped due to a dependency conflict:

virtual/udev:0

  (virtual/udev-215::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge) conflicts with
    virtual/udev[gudev] required by (net-im/empathy-3.12.7::gentoo, installed)
