Re: [gentoo-user] emerge xfce-base/thunar: lobotomy needed
Thank you to all who are following this. I used emerge -vptd to get some debugging info. This is the reason emerge wants to bring in the ~amd64 to my stable system: Parent:(xfce-base/thunar-1.4.0::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge) Depstring: || ( =gnome-base/gvfs-1.10.1[udisks,udev] =gnome-base/gvfs-1.10.1[gdu,udev] ) Priority: runtime installed: gnome-base/gvfs-1.10.1::gentoo Candidates: ['=gnome-base/gvfs-1.10.1[udisks,udev]'] ebuild: gnome-base/gvfs-1.12.3::gentoo I do not know how to translate to english, but these questions arise: 1. What is this saying in english? 2. Should I have the udisks USE flag set? 3. Should I have the udev USE flag set? 4. Should I have the gdu USE flag set? 5. Will (3)-(5) change the way portage brings in the gvfs dependency? Questions (3)-(5) are not educated questions. I really do not know what any of that stuff does. I just see it listed in the output above and naturally I wondered should I set them? The Ubuntu forums approach would be for me to try all combinations of those three use flags until it just works. In this case I would prefer to understand what is going on :) Thank you again, Chris

I suspect that I encountered some kind of portage bug or oddity on the way. I solved the problem by: 1. removed global USE flag -gnome 2. added global USE flag fuse 3. added global USE flag udisks 4. added global USE flag gdu 5. emerge -DNa world Some/all of the above steps allowed me to successfully emerge -vat thunar-volman Now here is the weird part: thunar-volman demands thunar with the udev USE flag. Before steps (1)-(5) above, during install of thunar-volman portage would take it upon itself to add the udev USE flag to thunar. And consequently pull in an ~amd64 version of gvfs. After steps (1)-(5) above, during install of thunar-volman, portage would halt the process with the common complaint: please add udev USE flag to thunar. I added the USE flag and then portage happily installed thunar-volman. Weird! === I'm a little upset I solved this using the Ubuntu approach of try a bunch of random crap until it works (in this case the random crap was me turning on global USE flags without really knowing why). I guessed to turn on those USE flags due to the output of emerge -d which I posted earlier. Thanks for your help everyone, Chris

However one comment I didn't see come up was to point out that it can make a huge difference in terms of use flag choices depending on which system profile you choose to orient your system around. In the case of my wife's XFCE machine I found that using the plain profile worked pretty well, but when I added KDE to it (I use KDE when sitting on that machine) I needed to add a lot of use flags and keyword a number of files. In the case of my own systems I choose the KDE profile which ends up with most everything use flag oriented pretty optimized for KDE. (No surprise.) Anyway, as you're new to Gentoo and looking for more in-depth answers, I wanted to just make sure you at least considered the system profile chosen and it's effect on what you have to do to emerge packages.

My wife uses XFCE with none of that confusion going on. I don't have
anything much on the machine in terms of controlling XFCE. It just
works. The machine was updated a few days ago so unless something got
messed up in portage it sounds like a config issue on your end to me.

When I tried to install it, portage became upset. Question: is it normal that I would have to ~amd64 a bunch of packages and deal with slot conflicts and static-libs to install a file manager? FYI I am running a stable (non-~AMD64) system. Thank you, The problem seems to be the use of static libraries (which I firmly believe are completely useless in a modern Linux system). I don't have enabled *any* static nor static-libs flag in my whole system (a full fledged GNOME 3 desktop), and neither in my server. Try reemerging world with USE=-static -static-libs, and then try to emerge thunar also with USE=-static -static-libs.

Canek, Thank you for your help. I 1. added -static -static-libs to /etc/make.conf USE. 2. emerge --newuse --deep world (rebuilt only glib) 3. emerge -pv thunar (also with the use flag enabled although thunar seems to not use that USE flag?). I got farther this time, but it seems that emerge is still asking a lot of me. Eventhough I think it's odd (and a sign that I screwed up somewhere), I can satisfy the USE flag requests and the ~amd64 requests. I do not know how to solve the slot conflicts. Thanks again for your help, Chris PS: This is a new install without anything fancy AFAIK. I synced portage about 10 hours ago. === drg ~ # emerge -pv thunar These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies... done!

This is weird. xfce-base/thunar-1.4.0 (the only available version) is stable; every one of its dependencies should be stable. You should not require to keyword any package. Can I see your USE variable in /etc/make.conf (or /etc/portage/make.conf, if you use the new recommended location)? Also, if you have it, your /etc/portage/package.use file or files? I have an old server running without nothing X-related, and portage allows me to merge thunar by just setting X and gudev to my USE flags. Also, your xfce-meta installation didn't pull thunar because you didn't set the (surprise) thunar USE flag. Before merging something, do a: emerge -pv xfce-meta You will see the possible USE flags, and which ones are set.

I know it sounds absurd, but... I have no package.keywords file. My package.use is small and benign. My make.conf is also benign. I am using the default profile ([1] default/linux/amd64/10.10 *) Emerge output is pretty clear: - thunar (argument) is pulling in - xfce-base/thunar-1.4.0[udev], which is pulling in - gnome-base/gvfs-1.12.3 ~amd64 - which pulls in all kinds of stuff This sure makes it look like I have gvfs in my package.keywords, but I do not. I promise! This command: find /usr/portage -name \*.ebuild | xargs grep gvfs-1.12 Returns these files: /usr/portage/gnome-base/gnome-core-libs/gnome-core-libs-3.4.1.ebuild /usr/portage/gnome-base/gnome/gnome-3.4.1.ebuild /usr/portage/gnome-base/gnome-light/gnome-light-3.4.1.ebuild /usr/portage/gnome-base/gvfs/gvfs-1.12.*.ebuild Weird. I have no idea where the gvfs-1.12 dependency is coming in. And emerge -t won't even tell me. Portage is so upset about this it will not even show me a tree (see original post in this thread). By the way, it will be difficult for you to find a stronger supporter of udev/systemd than myself; and I don't have the global udev flag set. I don't really know what udev is (I know it holds actions to take when certain USB devices are plugged... that's all I know). I just added global udev to obey the gentoo xfce install guide. If I remove it from make.conf, I can install thunar... but if I try to install thunar-volman the problem returns (thunar-volman requires thunar with udev) Thank you, Chris
