[[SOLVED] Blocked Packages because of me]

Oh, very well! I'll wait for a solution. Thanks!

[[SOLVED] Blocked Packages because of me]

Hi, I installed xorg-x11. (because i wanted x11-wm/i3). xorg-x11 depends on xbacklight.

My problem was that xbacklight didn't work because of an error:

$ xbacklight -get
No outputs have backlight property

So, searching on the internet, I found this package: sys-power/acpilight, which works perfectly.

From https://github.com/wavexx/acpilight :

Quote

On some modern laptops "XRandR" might lack the ability to set the display brightness. This capability was moved/unified to the kernel's ACPI interface, via /sys/class/backlight/."acpilight" provides a drop-in replacement for the xbacklight command that uses the ACPI interface instead of "XRandR", allowing old scripts to run.

So, in the end, all I did was:

$ emerge --unmerge xbacklight

$ emerge acpilight

Now, I can perfectly use my i3 WM, change brightness... without any issues.

The only problem is that i can't update my system anymore. Since xorg-x11 (which is still installed) depends on xbacklight, when I try to update the system I got:

$ sudo emerge -auvDN @world

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

  x11-apps/xbacklight-1.2.1-r1:0/0::xorg-kit, ebuild scheduled for merge pulled in by
    x11-apps/xbacklight required by x11-base/xorg-x11-7.4-r2:0/0::xorg-kit, installed

Is there a way to keep xorg-x11 and acpilight, maybe masking xbacklight ? What is the right way to do it?

[[SOLVED] Which PYTHON_TARGETS?]

Ok, I decommented "python-kit = 3.6-prime" in /etc/ego.conf

[[SOLVED] Which PYTHON_TARGETS?]

How can I see which versions are stable and which not? On Gentoo i went to the website https://packages.gentoo.org/packages/dev-lang/python. Is there a command line tool for funtoo?

Anyway, I put:

www-client/qutebrowser python_targets_python3_6

into /etc/portage/package.use

Now, portage complains even more:

$ emerge -pv qutebrowser


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

[[SOLVED] Which PYTHON_TARGETS?]

I'm not very expert with Gentoo/Funtoo. I just want to install qutebrowser.

$ emerge -pv qutebrowser

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

... done!

!!! The ebuild selected to satisfy "qutebrowser" has unmet requirements.
- www-client/qutebrowser-1.2.0::net-kit USE="-test" PYTHON_TARGETS="-python3_5 -python3_6"

  The following REQUIRED_USE flag constraints are unsatisfied:
    any-of ( python_targets_python3_5 python_targets_python3_6 )

What should I do? Should I set python_targets_python3_6 in package.use for qutebrowser?

Or something in make.conf? This is my /etc/portage/make.conf :

L10N="en-US it-IT"
LINGUAS="en_US it_IT"

CFLAGS="-march=ivybridge -O2 -pipe"
CXXFLAGS="${CFLAGS}"
MAKEOPTS="-j4"

VIDEO_CARDS="intel i965 nvidia"

Is it better python 3.5 or 3.6? But they are unstable, so, do I need to unmask something?

Now I have python only python 2.7 and 3.4 installed (which are necessary for other packages)
