Hi all,

I ran emerge --sync this evening and afterwards when I did  'emerge
--pretend --update --deep world', I got the following result:

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Calculating world dependencies  ..... .... ...done!
[ebuild     UD] media-sound/alsa-utils-1.0.9a [1.0.10_rc3]

I understand what this is telling me, but I don't understand why I would
need to downgrade alsa-utils.  I have alsa-driver version 1.0.10_r3 and
up until today, when I synced, there wasn't a problem with alsa-utils.
I assumed that the downgrade was because one of the other packages in
the list.  However, I did 'emerge --pretend' on each of the other
packages and none listed alsa-utils as a dependency.  Then, I emerged
each of the packages individually and got no error messages.  After
emerging all other packages, my system reboots fine and there seems to
be no problems.  However, now if I run 'emerge --pretend --update --deep
world', emerge still wants to downgrade alsa-utils.



Hi,
It's a question of adding one additional option to emerge: --tree (-t).
It'll then display some additional packages for which the upgrades are
dependencies, check the one above alsa-utils - it requires the downgrade.

Since I upgraded all the packages individually, only alsa-utils remains
for upgrade/downgrade.  However, I did try 'emerge --pretend --update
--deep --tree alsa-utils' and it didn't return any dependencies.  The
list as given above was the complete list, so I'm not sure what was
meant by "check the one above alsa-utils'.

Regards,

Colleen
A few hours ago I ran emerge --sync
and it upgaded to alsa-utils-1.0.10
