[gentoo-user] trying to install faad2-2.0-r7 on my amd64 system
I am getting the following error when I try to upgrade to faad2-2.0-r7. I need the patch for amd64 to use aac files. Here is the error message: Problem in media-libs/faad2-2.0-r7 dependencies. Specific key requires an operator (media-libs/faad2-2.0-r7) (try adding an '=') exceptions How can I get around this? -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

What is the command you're using to emerge the package? The error you're getting suggests that you tried something like emerge fadd2-2.0-r7 which is incorrect syntax (as the error says). If you, for some reason, need to emerge a specific version of a package, the correct syntax is emerge =cate-gory/package.name-and.revision In this case, it would be emerge =media-libs/faad2-2.0-r7 but normally you shouldn't need to do this. Is the package masked for your arch? or marked unstable for your arch, and you're running stable? Unmask the unstable version in /etc/portage/package.keywords, or unmask a masked version in /etc/portage/package.unmask (and possibly /etc/portage/package.keywords as well, if it's both hard masked and soft masked/unstable). The only time one usually needs to specify a particular version is if your arch has a later version that you for some reason can't use, and really need the earlier version (i.e., unmasking unstable was to give you 2.0.1, and you really had to have 2.0-r7, because that's the only version that some other program you need faad for would accept).
