Thanks, Grant - From $PORTDIR/profiles/base/package.use.mask: # GNOME gn...@gentoo.org (02 Oct 2012) # Mask USE=udisks and use USE=gdu as the default for gnome-base/gvfs-1.14; # older gvfs releases have problems with recent stable udisks:2 (bug #463792) gnome-base/gvfs-1.14 udisks OK, there it is. If I keyword gvfs I get into trouble because gobject-introspection wants dev-libs/glib-2.33 and gvfs wants =dev-libs/glib-2.36. Don't keyword gvfs, for gvfs: USE=-udisks gdu gvfs doesn't care what does the automounting, as long as something does That's what I have now and I have this ejecting problem. Should I just emerge udisks-2 into a new slot? I have a hunch that won't work and USE=udisks is hard masked for gvfs. Logic tells me that even if udisks:2 is available, gvfs won't use it. But, it's worth a try. I tried but no luck. I should hear from the maintainer soon. Another SLOT question. udisks:0 was installed and now udisks:2. What about slot #1? There is no SLOT 1 for udisks. SLOTs have arbitrary names that can be anything, they are not named numerically in sequence. The maintainers usually name a SLOT after the major version number becuase that is very descriptive, but it's not required There is only one SLOT name that has magic significance, SLOT:0, which is the default if the package is not explicitly in a slot. -- Alan McKinnon alan.mckin...@gmail.com
