The box that I'm upgrading is giving me:
[blocks B ] <x11-drivers/xf86-video-nouveau-1.0.12
("<x11-drivers/xf86-video-nouveau-1.0.12" is blocking
x11-base/xorg-drivers-1.18-r1)
!!! Multiple package instances within a single package slot have been pulled
!!! into the dependency graph, resulting in a slot conflict:
x11-base/xorg-server:0
(x11-base/xorg-server-1.18.4:0/1.18.4::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge)
pulled in by
>=x11-base/xorg-server-1.18[udev] required by
(x11-drivers/xf86-input-evdev-2.10.3:0/0::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge)
^^ ^^^^
(x11-base/xorg-server-1.17.4:0/1.17.4::gentoo, installed) pulled in by
<x11-base/xorg-server-1.18.0[glamor(-)?] required by
(x11-drivers/xf86-video-nouveau-1.0.11:0/0::gentoo, installed)
^ ^^^^^^
x11-base/xorg-server:0/1.17.4= required by
(x11-drivers/xf86-video-nouveau-1.0.11:0/0::gentoo, installed)
Normally I would just unmerge and emerge a new one:
emerge -C x11-drivers/xf86-video-nouveau (1.0.11)
and
emerge -uq x11-drivers/xf86-video-nouveau (1.0.12)
But this is a video driver my box is using, and I'm logged into it directly so
if I unmerge the drive in use the xorg-server will crash and I I'll be in a
login prompt, isn't it?
Is it better to do this upgrade over "ssh" from another box?
