OK, I've got it pared down to some degree. These few block programs in portage are still preventing a world update and I don't believe I can remove them without destroying my system. They are: [blocks B ] <sys-apps/portage-2.1.4_rc1 (is blocking app-shells/bash- 3.2_p33) [blocks B ] kde-base/ksync (is blocking kde-base/kdelibs-3.5.8-r10) [blocks B ] <sys-apps/baselayout-2.0.0_rc (is blocking sys-apps/makedev- 3.23.1) Total: 617 packages (568 upgrades, 5 downgrades, 35 new, 9 in new slots, 3 blocks), Size of downloads: 2,090,644 kB Fetch Restriction: 1 package (1 unsatisfied) Portage tree and overlays: [0] /usr/portage [1] /usr/portage/local/layman/sabayon I'm thinking that there must be a way to hold back the upgrade on these last three files in order to permit the portage upgrade. When I do emerge -pv portage I get: java bob # emerge -pv portage These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies... done! [ebuild U ] sys-apps/sandbox-1.2.18.1-r2 [1.2.18.1] 232 kB [0] [ebuild U ] dev-python/pycrypto-2.0.1-r6 [2.0.1-r5] USE="-bindist -gmp -test" 151 kB [0] [ebuild U ] sys-apps/portage-2.1.4.1 [2.1.3.4-r1] USE="-build -doc -epydoc (-selinux)" LINGUAS="-pl*" 361 kB [0] *** Portage will stop merging at this point and reload itself, then resume the merge. [ebuild U ] app-shells/bash-3.2_p33 [3.2_p15-r1] USE="nls -afs -bashlogger -plugins% -vanilla" 2,564 kB [0] [blocks B ] <sys-apps/portage-2.1.4_rc1 (is blocking app-shells/bash- 3.2_p33) Total: 4 packages (4 upgrades, 1 block), Size of downloads: 3,306 kB Portage tree and overlays: [0] /usr/portage So it looks like the important one to look at is: <sys-apps/portage-2.1.4_rc1 (is blocking app-shells/bash-3.2_p33) So if I could prevent the update to bash then portage should update. Is this correct? How would I do this? Thank you, Bob
