Hi,

running (with portage 2.2_rc40)
emerge --keep-going -j4 -1 --ask --update --deep @system @world

it fails to upgrade e.g. kde-base/thumbnailers

eix -e kde-base/thumbnailers shows that
4.3.0 is installed and 4.3.1 is available
(I have ACCEPT_KEYWORDS=~amd64 in /etc/make.conf)

What's going on - please explain.


Well, please first explain why it doesn't update.  It *must* print some 
sort of error message (or else how would you know that it doesn't update?)

I don't know if it would update, but it doesn't show so with the --ask
option. Here is my output

emerge --keep-going -j4 -1k --ask --update --deep @system @world

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Would you like to merge these packages? [Yes/No] No


Thanks for your help.

And to Dale,

it's no problem to install KDE-4.3.1 on my hardware (I've done so on a
different machine from scratch). It's just that emerge --update doesn't
like to update.

 These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

$ grep -r thumbnailers /var/portage/kde-base/*
/var/portage/kde-base/kdegraphics-meta/kdegraphics-meta-4.3.0.ebuild:   =kde-
base/thumbnailers-${PV}:${SLOT}[kdeprefix=]
/var/portage/kde-base/kdegraphics-meta/kdegraphics-meta-4.3.1.ebuild:   =kde-
base/thumbnailers-${PV}:${SLOT}[kdeprefix=]


So I'll bet that you have kdegraphics-meta-4.3.0 in world which won't pull in 
thumbnailers.

To verify: grep kde /var/lib/portage/world

And, you did check the contents of package.keywords and package.mask, right?
