Thomas - thanks for responding. It all makes sense, but it isn't working

What does you virtual/alsa line say?


Currently I'm running 2.4.20-r7, but 2.4.20-r8 is merged. Maybe this is
the problem? possibly I need to emerge -C r8 and emerge =r7 to get it
perfectly in sync?

That shouldn't cause any problems, virtuals aren't version specific. So as long as you have an aa-sources kernel merged and running your virtual/ linux-sources shoudln't give you any trouble.



[ebuild  N    ] sys-kernel/development-sources-2.6.0_beta11
[ebuild  N    ] media-plugins/alsa-xmms-0.9.12

So, development-sources is not merged, and it's not under /usr/src, and
it's no longer in /var/cache/edb/virtuals, but it's still getting pulled
in. Why?

The only deps of alsa-xmms are xmms (obviously), alsa-lib and virtual/alsa for some reason portage feels the need to merge development-sources to satisfy virtual/alsa, the only thing I can think of that would cause this would be development-sources in virtual/alsa. If that isn't the case maybe someone more intimate with portage can shed some light on the problem.
