SOLVED Rosegarden update failed

Beguinner here in Funtoo !

I was able to install Rosegarden Rosegarden-21.1 thanks to the gracious help of cardinal in [URL]https://forums.funtoo.org/topic/5027-solved-compiling-rosegarden-fails/[/URL]

Today I did:    [CODE]

chroot # ego sync
chroot # emerge -auDN @world

[/CODE]

and got an error message after mention of a long list of errors during the install of  rosegarden 17.12.1 which would have been the 50th package installed under the update.

I am assuming, but not sure, that the remaining 6 packages were not installed.

I am enclosing the last lines in the output of
[CODE]emerge -auDN @world[/CODE]

as well as the relevant part of that of

[CODE]emerge --depclean[/CODE]

which I issued immediately after, and the log info required..

I suspect that there is a simple explanation to this, related to the way I achieved the initial installation of Rosegarden-21.1.

But I am not able to sort this out by myself.

I think the solution may be something like repeating the part of cardinal's solution to the above mentioned thread - up to the rebuilding of the manifest - and then either update rosegarden  or build/install it again, it should not be a big job.

But this is all guessing on my part and I would not know how to consider the eventual choice   between updating and re-emerging/building/installing.

Mask any version less than rosegarden-21.12 so emerge won't try to build/downgrade broken rosegarden-17.12.1 :

echo "<media-sound/rosegarden-21.12" >> /etc/portage/package.mask/rosegarden

Thanks !  Now that you have said it I am pretty sure that will solve the problem.
