Today everything went like clockwork. I have semantic-desktop in USE but 
those two programs are not installed here. You might want to try again.

 Hello list,
 
 Today when I ran my usual upgrade I ran into a problem. Portage told me it 
 had skipped net-libs/libkgapi:4 because of unsatisfied dependencies. All it 
 could tell me was that =kde-base/kdepimlibs-4.14:4 required it.
 
 So I embarked on one of those fruitless cycles of adding packages to 
 package.keywords, one at a time as they caused portage to stop, until after 
 about 8 additions I hit the inevitable show-stopper. The mixing of versions 
 of parts of KDE resulted in both 4.14.3 and 4.12.5 of kdelibs being required 
 at the same time.
 
 It looks as though someone has allowed something from ~amd64 out of the wild 
 and into the peace of amd64. Does anyone have a clue to what it is? I 
 thought it might be chromium, since libkgapi is for handling Google 
 calendars and contacts, but eix tells me I already have the latest stable 
 version.
 

Hello Peter,

if I'd be in your place I'd try to run emerge @world -uvDNta (the most
important one here is the -t for showing the dependency tree, you could also
play with --backtrack=30 to resolve possible issues with the dependency
calculation), after you removed the keyword stuff you just added.
From your fist statement (required by =kde-base/kdepimlibs-4.14:4) I guess
that you keyworded something that depends on kdepimlibs or kdepimlibs itself in
the past.
Another option would be to try equery d kdepimlibs : it should show everything
that depends on it (and you can crosscheck that with your keywords).
As a final straw (or first option - depending on you preferences) you could
resync the tree: maybe you've gotten an incomplete version/revbump that already
is resolved in later versions of the tree.


WKR
Hinnerk

I thought someone would say that. The -t, I mean. Of course I did try it, 
but I already knew it wouldn't help because portage can't complete the 
dependency calculation.

 From your fist statement (required by =kde-base/kdepimlibs-4.14:4) I
 guess that you keyworded something that depends on kdepimlibs or
 kdepimlibs itself in the past.

$ cat /etc/portage/package.keywords
sci-misc/boinc
~sci-calculators/qalculate-units-0.9.4
sys-apps/portage

[...]

 As a final straw (or first option - depending on you preferences) you
 could resync the tree: maybe you've gotten an incomplete version/revbump

That did it - thanks. I see we have a new version of KDE today, and the 
changes to the tree had only been partly completed. I should have thought of 
that myself.

Now to shut KDE down and upgrade it...

PS. Am I right in thinking that two verb constructs in everyday English are 
absent from German? I have the pluperfect tense and the subjunctive mood in 
mind. We also don't have a rule that every verb in a sentence must be in the 
same tense - in fact it's rarely so.

Just a passing observation; no offence meant.
