Mind you, I'm not even going to attempt to solve your emerge problems, but hopefully this will help you nevertheless. As far as I can determine everybody who uses Gentoo but you does not use your script or anything even remotely like it. As far as I can determine every now and then someone other than you has a merge issue, posts to the list and either gets their issue resolved or, rarely, has run into a legitimate issue and needs to patch, or wait for a bug to get fixed. As far as I can determine you update your system both very rarely, and using a method, if it deserves the name, that defies description and consistently runs into issues. These observations lead me to the following hypothesis: your frequency and way of upgrading are actually the *cause* of your problems. Until proven wrong, I'll stick to my hypothesis and offer you these pieces of advice: 1. update more frequently 2. let portage do what is was designed to do 3. read (and by read I do in fact actually mean try to understand) and follow the veritable heap of advice that was already supplied by the generous souls on this list 4. rename your script to jackass.sh and let that refer to anybody who even thinks about running it I'll bet you that: 1. your updates will go smoother, and 2. you´ll find it easier to get help here if for whatever reason you still run into issues. Best regards and good luck with your update, Paul P.S. I sync almost daily and update if there are no big packages that would interfere with whatever I'm doing. Today's update was done while I was writing this. Once again, no issues. Just one 'emerge @preserved-rebuild' left and I'm done. And I didn't even need to figure that out myself, as portage is telling me. So I can focus on other things, although in this case, only time will tell how useful I spent my time.

The files hadn't been touched since November last year. I have had the nepomuk USE flag enabled for a long time, and I hadn't even noticed that the nefarious nepomuk implementation had been replaced with Baloo. Baloo seems to do what you might expect from a file indexer: it runs in the background and silently indexes you files. You wouldn't even know it's there. Actually I *didn't* notice it was there :-). I think the nepomuk use flag has become a bit of a misnomer by now, because there is no more actual "nepomuk" to pull in. Maybe it's worth a try to enable it again, and enjoy these pretty previews.

Re: [gentoo-user] Copying/Moving a file in KDE - is the preview missing
Op zondag 7 juni 2015 17:42:37 schreef Andrew Lowe: Hi all, Under KDE, which I use, when you go to move/copy a file and it already exists in the destination, you get a dialogue pop up with a heading of "File already exists", it says in the dialogue "Source" and "Destination" with the respective paths underneath then underneath that a big expanse of nothing then below that some stuff including the Overwrite/Skip/Cancel buttons. My question relate to the expanse of nothingness. For example, if I'm moving/copying image files, should there be a preview of the two files in this nothingness? Is there some USE flag I've stuffed up that has disabled this. This happens, in my experience with Dolphin and Gwenview, but I'm assuming they both use a standard Qt/KDE dialogue so others probably display this behaviour as well. Any thoughts, greatly appreciated, Andrew Hi Andrew, If I try to copy a file that already exists in the destination folder, I do indeed get preview images and some metadata, not a vast expanse of nothingness. For example, when copying a jpg the dialog shows thumbnails of the source and the destination, and underneath each image the type, size, width, height and the date it was last modified. Below that is an input field where an alternative name can be entered, which presumably you still have. Finally there are the buttons. As for what triggers the presence/absence of the preview, I have no idea. Paul

Strange, I couldn't get grub2-install to run without diving into GRUB_PLATFORMS. I installed not too long ago and I've had to re-emerge grub a few times with different settings until it finally agreed to install itself. Come to think of it, I may have started out with my desktop copy of make.conf, which is configured for EFI boot. I might have a go without GRUB_PLATFORMS altogether and see what happens. Paul

As long as you don't allow interactive logins you shoud be fine, right? I think there might also be some advanced iptables hacking that might help you block too many requests from the same source IP.

Both are run through ntp-client, but you can set it so that it uses ntpd to set the time. This is done by modifying /etc/conf.d/ntp-client. Mine looks like this, so you can see I'm actually using ntpd -q as ntp-client: # /etc/conf.d/ntp-client # Command to run to set the clock initially # Most people should just leave this line alone ... # however, if you know what you're doing, and you # want to use ntpd to set the clock, change this to 'ntpd' NTPCLIENT_CMD="ntpd" # Options to pass to the above command # This default setting should work fine but you should # change the default 'pool.ntp.org' to something closer # to your machine. See http://www.pool.ntp.org/ or # try running `netselect -s 3 pool.ntp.org`. #NTPCLIENT_OPTS="-s -b -u \ # 0.gentoo.pool.ntp.org 1.gentoo.pool.ntp.org \ # 2.gentoo.pool.ntp.org 3.gentoo.pool.ntp.org" NTPCLIENT_OPTS="-q" Paul
