Hi,
this morning I got a block while updateing:
upower and hal cannot be installed at the same time:
* Error: The above package list contains packages which cannot be
* installed at the same time on the same system.
(sys-apps/hal-0.5.14-r4, installed) pulled in by
sys-apps/hal required by @selected
>=sys-apps/hal-0.5.10 required by (app-misc/hal-info-20091130, installed)
(sys-power/upower-0.9.9, ebuild scheduled for merge) pulled in by
sys-power/upower required by (kde-base/kdelibs-4.6.3-r2, installed)
sys-power/upower required by @selected
My question is:
How can I identify _installed_ packages, which needs hal?
With
quse hal
I get ALL packages in portage, which has the hal use flag.
That is too much ...hrmmm... info...
If possible I want to remove hal from my system...
Any better way to do this?
Thank you very much for any help!
Best regards,
mcc
This is how I do it:
root@fireball / # equery d hal
* These packages depend on hal:
root@fireball / #
If you want to get rid of hal, which is going away anyway, change your
USE line in make.conf and add -hal then emerge -DNva world. Then you
should be able to get rid of hal. I would also run revdep-rebuild
afterwards just to be sure.
If hal is/was running, I would either reboot or go to single user then
back to default. Sort of reset the services so that hal stops and the
replacements get started. Also, make sure hal isn't in any runlevels too.
Hope that helps.
