Hi, now that I have sage-on-gentoo installed I can't do world updates with the -D option anymore. Looks like a portage quirk to me.
There seem to be at least two problems:
I have sci-mathematics/singular in my world file and the -D option
forces portage to think that I insist on the latest version. Therefore
it collides with sage-on-gentoo insisting on 3.1.3:
sci-mathematics/singular:0
(sci-mathematics/singular-3.1.3.3::gentoo, installed) pulled in by
~sci-mathematics/singular-3.1.3.3 required by
(sci-mathematics/sage-5.0-r1::sage-on-gentoo, installed)
(sci-mathematics/singular-3.1.4-r1::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge)
pulled in by
(no parents that aren't satisfied by other packages in this slot)
There also is an eselect issue. I don't know why, but eselect-blas and
eselect-lapack are pulled in, although blocked by the new gsl:
[blocks B ] app-admin/eselect-blas ("app-admin/eselect-blas" is blocking
sci-libs/gsl-1.15-r2, sci-libs/cblas-reference-20110218)
[blocks B ] app-admin/eselect-lapack ("app-admin/eselect-lapack" is
blocking sci-libs/gsl-1.15-r2, sci-libs/cblas-reference-20110218)
However, without the -D option I just get a warning:
WARNING: One or more updates have been skipped due to a dependency conflict:
sci-mathematics/singular:0
(sci-mathematics/singular-3.1.4-r1::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge)
conflicts with
~sci-mathematics/singular-3.1.3.3 required by
(sci-mathematics/sage-5.0-r1::sage-on-gentoo, installed)
Any ideas? Shall I carry this to the portage mailing list?
Cheers,
Thomas
