Re: [gentoo-user] anyone use 389ds?
I don't know. Last time when "emerge --update --deep --newuse world" I suffered some "Blocks", I don't know how to solve that properly. Then I unmerged all the releated packages(include dependencies) and remerged the packages I need. It works. I mean maybe you can just make this, without knowing everything clearly right now. Of course, if you are not in a PRODUCTION environment. 2010/10/13 James > Hi, > > Yep -- I have it installed. > > [I] sys-devel/libtool (2.2.10(2)@09/26/2010): A shared library tool > for developers > > I've tried unmasking ~amd64 to no avail.

Re: [gentoo-user] anyone use 389ds?
Do you have libtool-2*:1.5 installed? ( emerge -pv sys-devel/ibtool ) If so, try unmerging it. ( emerge -av --unmerge sys-devel/libtool-2*:1.5 ) I am not sure.Just have a try.
