[gentoo-user] Understanding why portage wants to downgrade nvidia-cuda-sdk
Hello, I'm particularly paranoid about my CUDA setup. I do not understand CUDA except enough to declare that if my machine has CUDA 4.2 installed my life will be easy. This is because I compile software that supposedly needs CUDA 4.2. Can someone please translate the emerge -Dauv snip below into english for me? My attempted translation: portage is about to uninstall CUDA 4.2 and replace it with CUDA 2.2 so enjoy your new life of misery sucker... should've used OpenCL! Hahaha! I'll also post the top of dev-util/nvidia-cuda-sdk/ChangeLog Thank you, Chris === emerge -Duav snip: [ebuild UD ] dev-util/nvidia-cuda-sdk-2.02.0807.1535 [4.2] USE=-debug -emulation% (-cuda%*) (-doc%*) (-examples%*) (-opencl%) 40,937 kB === ChangeLog snip: # ChangeLog for dev-util/nvidia-cuda-sdk # Copyright 1999-2013 Gentoo Foundation; Distributed under the GPL v2 # $Header: /var/cvsroot/gentoo-x86/dev-util/nvidia-cuda-sdk/ChangeLog,v 1.40 2013/06/26 16:13:04 xarthisius Exp $ 26 Jun 2013; Kacper Kowalik xarthis...@gentoo.org -nvidia-cuda-sdk-2.2-r1.ebuild, -nvidia-cuda-sdk-4.2.9-r1.ebuild, -nvidia-cuda-sdk-4.2.ebuild, -nvidia-cuda-sdk-5.0.35.ebuild, nvidia-cuda-sdk-5.0.35-r1.ebuild: Workaround bug #462602, drop old *nvidia-cuda-sdk-5.0.35-r1 (09 Mar 2013) 09 Mar 2013; Justin Lecher j...@gentoo.org +nvidia-cuda-sdk-5.0.35-r1.ebuild: Install Makefile with examples, #460740 *nvidia-cuda-sdk-4.2.9-r2 (23 Jan 2013)

Based on your suggestion, I confirmed the reason for the nvidia-cuda-sdk downgrade is that my package.keywords suddenly no longer applies. These are questions that still linger in my head: Why does the atom ~dev-util/nvidia-cuda-sdk-4.2 NOT apply to dev-util/nvidia-cuda-sdk-4.2.9-r2? Why does the atom ~dev-util/nvidia-cuda-toolkit-4.2 INDEED apply to dev-util/nvidia-cuda-toolkit/4.2.9-r2 (see below)?
