Hi, I'm fairly new to Gentoo and I have a blocking issue which I don't really understand.
I want to install some packages with docs but emerge tells me that it can't do that. Quite interestingly it complains about blocked packages. One of them is openrc and the other is linux-util. I don't want to delete either one, and wisely so, because even emerge tells me that they are part of my system profile and should not be deleted. Now the actual questions I have are the following: - Why does emerge complain about blocking packages when I want to recompile a few *other* packages, already on the system and all I want is their documentation created? - If those two packages do indeed block each other, why are they in my system profile, which was set up by Gentoo itself when I installed the system? - If they block each other, how did both get installed on the machine? - Why do they block each other? As far as I could see, they are not clashing, one is a SysV type init scripts and the 'rc' binary and the other is all sorts of utilities and system management stuff. Thanks, Zoltan
