error when updating

[yungstorm]

I keep getting this error because my terminal emulator of choice termite is in the portage overlays, but it depends on x11-libs/gnome-pty-helper-0.40.2. I tried fixing this by adding the gentoo overlay, but that just borked everything then I removed it and reverted my portage to what I was before. I'm fresh out of ideas help please?

 

emerge: there are no ebuilds to satisfy ">=x11-libs/gnome-pty-helper-0.40.2".
(dependency required by "x11-libs/vte-0.40.2::nightmare" [ebuild])
(dependency required by "@selected" [set])
(dependency required by "@world" [argument])

I run current lxde x86_64
Emerge layman,add nightmare overlay.
Add nightmare overlay to /etc/portage/package.mask to stop override of matching funtoo packages which would create version conflict.

*/*::nightmare

Add the package I want from nightmare overlay to /etc/portage/package.unmask

x11-terms/termite::nightmare

funtoo rj # emerge -pv x11-terms/termite

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

!!! The following update has been skipped due to unsatisfied dependencies:

The following mask changes are necessary to proceed:
 (see "package.unmask" in the portage(5) man page for more details)
# required by x11-terms/termite-9999::nightmare
# required by x11-terms/termite (argument)
# /etc/portage/package.mask:

The following USE changes are necessary to proceed:

# required by x11-terms/termite-9999::nightmare
# required by x11-terms/termite (argument)
=x11-libs/vte-0.38.3 termite-patch

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

I ignore this

x11-libs/vte:2.91

emerge: there are no ebuilds to satisfy ">=x11-libs/gnome-pty-helper-0.40.2".
(dependency required by "x11-libs/vte-0.40.2::nightmare" [ebuild])

and follow package.unmask and package.use instructions.
 
Add to /etc/portage/package.unmask

=x11-libs/vte-0.38.3

Add to /etc/portage/package.use

=x11-libs/vte-0.38.3 termite-patch

funtoo rj # emerge -av x11-terms/termite

You're on "stable" or current ?

caause in my system (Stable) compiles successfully).

 

You can paste the stdout/stderr (/var/tmp/portage/x11-libs/gnome-pty-helper-0.4.2/tmp/build.log)

It's saying that isn't a valid directory :( and i'm on current

[overkill]

Funtoo has dev-scheme/termite-0.15 in the current tree, and it depends on gnome-pty-helper-0.38.3

 

Maybe you haven't really removed the gentoo overlay version of termite?

 

EDIT:  Disregard, wrong termite.
