[gentoo-user] restrictive equery depends
hi, is there any way I could search for packages that depend on a specific ebuild version? for example, I want to find out what packages depend exactly on virtual/jdk:1.5 (and not virtual/jdk:1.4 nor virtual/jdk-1.6). if I do this search: $ equery depends virtual/jdk:1.5 it will show me all packages that virtual/jdk:1.5 satisfies, but I need the packages that depend only on that version (or slot, in this case). this would be useful because I may have both versions of Java installed, but I just want to have the latest version (1.6), so I need to find out what packages are pulling the older version. thanks, -- Crístian Deives dos Santos Viana [aka CD1] Sent from Campinas, SP, Brazil

[gentoo-user] OT: I want to get excited, but I just *know* they're going to mess it up...
UK cloud computing strategy could save up to £3.2bn a year, says Cabinet Office. The government has unveiled a sweeping strategy to create its own internal cloud computing system – such as that used by Google, Microsoft and Amazon – as part of a radical plan that it claims could save up to £3.2bn a year from an annual bill of at least £16bn. The key part of the new strategy, outlined by the Cabinet Office minister Angela Smith, will be the concentration of government computing power into a series of about a dozen highly secure data centres, each costing up to £250m to build, which will replace more than 500 presently used by central government, police forces and local authorities. The government will also push for open source software to be used more widely among central and local government's 4m desktop computers. That poses an immediate threat to Microsoft, whose Windows operating system and Office applications suite is at present firmly embedded as the standard on PCs in government, such as the NHS, which is one of the largest users in Europe. But John Suffolk, the government's chief information officer, pointed out that cost savings of just £100 per machine would total £400m across government. Unlike Windows, open source operating systems such as Linux have no licensing costs and can be used on as many machines as required. By 2015, the strategy suggests, 80% of central government desktops could be supplied through a shared utility service – essentially a cloud service resembling Google Docs, which lets people create documents online for free. http://www.guardian.co.uk/technology/2010/jan/27/cloud-computing-government-uk

Hello, I'm looking at an Amplifier/Receiver; the Yamaha RX-V3900 with ethernet. Supposedly you can control the embedded web browser, via the DLNA protocol.

Lots of other protocols may be available, I just have no experience here, so I'm looking for comments particularly with anyone that has a stereo/receiver that is controlled via a web browser. What I do not want to do is purchase the device to discover that it only works with windows.

Find a error and it is at pastebin and no link to the fix. I have also ran into pastebin expiring too. Neither is good. Dale :-) :-)
Re: [gentoo-user] restrictive equery depends
great, Helmut (and Neil), that was exactly what I was looking for! :) thanks, On Thu, Jan 28, 2010 at 9:43 AM, Helmut Jarausch jarau...@igpm.rwth-aachen.de wrote: On 28 Jan, Crístian Viana wrote: hi, is there any way I could search for packages that depend on a specific ebuild version? for example, I want to find out what packages depend exactly on virtual/jdk:1.5 (and not virtual/jdk:1.4 nor virtual/jdk-1.6). if I do this search: $ equery depends virtual/jdk:1.5 it will show me all packages that virtual/jdk:1.5 satisfies, but I need the packages that depend only on that version (or slot, in this case). this would be useful because I may have both versions of Java installed, but I just want to have the latest version (1.6), so I need to find out what packages are pulling the older version. Hi, take Neil Bothwick's swiss army knife : emerge -vp --depclean virtual/jdk:1.5 (it's a special case of emerge, showing which packages have pulled in the package given on the command line.)

[gentoo-user] gnome-mplayer auto-mutes on next track
G'day, Ever since a someone recent update to gnome-mplayer, whenever I load a new file after a viewing or listing to audio the next track auto-mutes. That is, gnome-mplayer seems to set my system audio to mute. I can't seem to figure out why this happens or what is causing it. Anyone have any idea how I can work around this ? -- Beau Henderson
Re: [gentoo-user] dlna Gentoo
Take a look at http://elinux.org/DLNA_Open_Source_Projects Has some nice links. I've yet to operate one via a browser :( deface On Jan 28, 2010, at 10:34 AM, James wrote: Hello, I'm looking at an Amplifier/Receiver; the Yamaha RX-V3900 with ethernet. Supposedly you can control the embedded web browser, via the DLNA protocol. This ebuild media-libs/libdlna is scarcely supported, if you go to the website. Lots of other protocols may be available, I just have no experience here, so I'm looking for comments particularly with anyone that has a stereo/receiver that is controlled via a web browser. What I do not want to do is purchase the device to discover that it only works with windows.

If not, you probably need to rebuild poppler with USE=lcms. Now here's a thing, I can view it in Okular, but nothing is shown in the Okular print viewer ...
