I did upgrade boost-build, then emerging boost wanted to rebuild 11 other packages - including kdepimlibs, and I do not want to break KMail, nor even bruise it. So I didn't emerge boost. Then, after downgrading boost-build again, emerge -1a boost succeeded in upgrading boost-build, without the USE flag, and is now proceeding with the other 11. How does that work? -- Rgds Peter

This seems to be a fairly regular occurrence with boost. AFAIR I got round it with emerge -1a =dev-libs/boost-1.62.0-r1 =dev-util/boost-build-1.62.0-r1 I didn't mess with USE. -- Neil Bothwick This man is depriving a village somewhere of an idiot pgpbcYvEBCs92.pgp Description: OpenPGP digital signature
[gentoo-user] Boost and boost-build out of step
Hello list, For about a week my daily update has complained thus: !!! All ebuilds that could satisfy "=dev-util/boost-build-1.62*" have been masked. !!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request: - dev-util/boost-build-1.62.0-r1::gentoo (masked by: ) (dependency required by "dev-libs/boost-1.62.0-r1::gentoo" [ebuild]) The ebuild of dev-util/boost-build-1.62.0-r1 includes 'RESTRICT="test"'. I have just been waiting for this to be sorted out, but no change yet. I can upgrade boost-build by specifying USE=test on the command line, but is that a good idea? Is anyone else experiencing it? This is ~amd64. -- Rgds Peter
