Hi,
after updateing I have run (beside others) this command:
eclean-dist -C -d -v
and got:
The following unavailable installed packages were found
sys-devel/autoconf-2.13
Running
eix sys-devel/autoconf
and got
[U] sys-devel/autoconf
Available versions:
(2.1) 2.13-r1
(2.64) 2.64-r1
(2.69) 2.69-r4
(9999) **9999
{emacs USERLAND="BSD"}
Installed versions: 2.13(2.1)(01:46:26 PM 09/15/2018)(USERLAND="-BSD")
2.69-r4(2.69)(09:29:15 PM 01/02/2019)(-emacs)
Homepage: https://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/autoconf.html
Description: Used to create autoconfiguration files
which is in sync wth the abouve.
But when I do
emerge --selective=n -va sys-devel/autoconf
I get
These are the packages that would be merged, in order:
Calculating dependencies... done!
[ebuild R ] sys-devel/autoconf-2.69-r4:2.69::gentoo USE="-emacs" 0 KiB
Total: 1 package (1 reinstall), Size of downloads: 0 KiB
Why will autoconf be RE-installed. This version isn't installed at
all. Why do I get '[ebuild R ]' instead of an update?
How often do I need to reinstall autoconf until it will not be
reported back as being old and no longer in the database.
(I checked it...it is not masked.)? ;)
Thank you very much in advance for any help!
Cheers!
