Hi Frank,

I installed that before but after downloading some bytes it stops and
hangs. Since there is only a minimalistic help (-h) and no manpage I
dont know the trick which makes it work.

that's a problem of the ebuilds in the overlays. Inthe ebuild there is a
hardcoded string for the dependency. So in case of a renaming you have

[gentoo-user] [OT] KDE password dialogs stopped working

2009-10-10 Thread Dirk Heinrichs
Hi all,

just wanted to know wether anbody has encountered this:

Nearly all KDE password dialogs (except screensaver and kdm) have
stopped working. Neither kwallet nor kmail/kontact or kopete password
dialogs work. I can enter login data, but the OK button doesn't react
on klicks, only Cancel works.

I suspect that it has something to do with recent QT update to 4.5.3,
but I'm not sure.

Has anybody else seen this?

No, the ebuilds in question are (among others) dev-python/nevow and
dev-python/ipython, from main portage tree.

Furthermore, as I've stated in the original post, the dependencies
there are _correct_, it's just that emerge doesn't even trying to check
them, while direct ebuild X merge command works just fine.

Then you are right with egencache --repo=gentoo --update.
If there is still a problem, take a look into the ebuilds and the cache

[gentoo-user] Migration to baselayout2 / openrc

2009-10-10 Thread meino . cramer

Hi,

 finally.

 On gentoo web I found this: 2.  
  Migration to OpenRC 
  Migration to OpenRC is fairly straightforward; it will be pulled in
  as part of your regular upgrade process by your package manager.

 I tried to check this (emerge -pv openrc) and found:
  !!! All ebuilds that could satisfy sys-apps/openrc have been masked.
  !!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request:
  - sys-apps/openrc- (masked by: missing keyword)
  - sys-apps/openrc-0.5.1 (masked by: ~x86 keyword)
  - sys-apps/openrc-0.4.3-r4 (masked by: ~x86 keyword)
  - sys-apps/openrc-0.4.3-r3 (masked by: ~x86 keyword)
  - sys-apps/openrc-0.4.3-r2 (masked by: ~x86 keyword)

  - sys-apps/openrc-0.4.1-r1 (masked by: ~x86 keyword)

 Especially masked by: missing keyword let me doubt whether 
 or not it is sane to migrate

 How to proceed here ?

Many users who populate this list have unmasked it and emerged it without a 
problem.  I am still holding onto the stable path and won't be upgrading as 
yet - perhaps because the benefits of doing so are not earth shattering, plus 
I'll have to learn new invocations to update my systems.  Mind you, I'll have 
to learn them sooner or later when it becomes stable.

YMMV.

 I guess you'll have to run it at least once from a KDE4 session, for instance 
 so it can setup password management with KWallet. I can run KDE4 apps in 
 KDE4, Actually Krusader launches Krename:4 now when I select multiple files 
 for renaming. Kopete works with no problem.
   

I upgraded KDE 4 yesterday and I have been playing with it a little.

 Hi,
 
  for this weekend I planned to migrate to baselayout 2
  finally.
 
  On gentoo web I found this: 2.
   Migration to OpenRC
   Migration to OpenRC is fairly straightforward; it will be pulled in
   as part of your regular upgrade process by your package manager.
 
  I tried to check this (emerge -pv openrc) and found:
   !!! All ebuilds that could satisfy sys-apps/openrc have been masked.
   !!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your
  request: - sys-apps/openrc- (masked by: missing keyword)
   - sys-apps/openrc-0.5.1 (masked by: ~x86 keyword)
   - sys-apps/openrc-0.4.3-r4 (masked by: ~x86 keyword)
   - sys-apps/openrc-0.4.3-r3 (masked by: ~x86 keyword)
   - sys-apps/openrc-0.4.3-r2 (masked by: ~x86 keyword)
   - sys-apps/openrc-0.4.3-r1 (masked by: ~x86 keyword)
   - sys-apps/openrc-0.4.2 (masked by: ~x86 keyword)
   - sys-apps/openrc-0.4.1-r1 (masked by: ~x86 keyword)
 
  Especially masked by: missing keyword let me doubt whether
  or not it is sane to migrate
 
  How to proceed here ?

openrc needs to be in your packages.keywords as it's still unstable.

The - version is not keyworded at all, which is right and proper for the 
version in cvs

I'd suggest to delay the update 'till it hits stable.

Stable and testing are different branches, after all, and if you
mix them, results should be pretty much unpredictable, since both are
tested as-is.
So any package in your (stable) branch will have baselayout-1
compatible script running with openrc and baselayout-2 scripts, which
are _known_ to be incompatible in some cases.
Of course, hitting stable branch should mean that package spent some
time in testing and init-script has been modified to be compatible
with both branches, but still I doubt that the overal result should be
more stable than testing branch, since no-one has really tested your
particular package mix.

[gentoo-user] WinZip and 7z encryption

2009-10-10 Thread Mick
Hi All,

Three questions on this topic:

1. I am able to decrypt WinZip archives/files which have been encrypted with 
AES256, but have to use 7z from the CLI.  How can I configure Ark to do the 
same in Konqueror?

2. In WinZip you get to choose which type of encryption you can use.  Is there 
a way of specifying AES256 in zip and 7z?

3. How can I tell what encryption has been used on a given zip archive/file?

Right, it should tell you that it started without any major problems - also 
have a look at your logs to check for any error messages while your starting 
it.

If in addition you use the --verbose and or --debug options you should see all 
that dbus has to tell you.

HTH.

Well, to quote a old song, you ain't seen nothing yet.  It amazes me
that you can ask how to find out something and you get about 5 or 6
different ways to do the same thing.  That's not even counting different
options that can be used for the same command. 

I would urge you to check into the q command and equery.  I !think!
the q command is part of portage.  It may be part of gentoolkit tho. 
Just the q command has more than a dozen different things it does. 
equery can do a lot too but some say it has some accuracy problems at
times.  It works for my little simple stuff tho.

Hope that gives you a little more pointers.

I'll give you another one, and it doesn't require you to install any

totem[python] depends on gst-python which depends on pygobject.  I have

Hi Albert,

thanks for your post...but it is not clear to me, what it means --
sorry I am no native english speaker. I did:

  solfire:/home/mccramerfind /usr/lib/python* -type f -name codegen.py
  /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/fract4d/codegen.py
  /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/fract4d/codegen.py
  /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/gtk-2.0/codegen/codegen.py

and:

  solfire:/home/mccramereselect python show
  python2.5

(I tried to compile totem with python 2.6 selected before but it fails
with more smoke than with python 2.5...)

So, what can I learn from this ... :) ???

Best regards,
mcc

The first thing is that you have packages installed against multiple
versions of python.  The usuall thing after a python slot-upgrade is to
run python-updater and, when successful, remove the older python.

Having said that, your system python is python 2.5, but pygobject is
installed against python 2.6.  You can't have that.  System packages
have to be installed against the same python slot.
