Re: [gentoo-user] Do I need to do anything if a package masked by my profile?
Nevermind. Referring to the "x11-proto/dri2proto masked but still needed by media-libs/mesa" thread, looks like re-emerging mesa fixed the issue. ~Donny Johnson On Tue, Jun 12, 2018 at 8:17 PM, Donald Johnson wrote: > On Mon, Jun 11, 2018 at 4:36 AM, Neil Bothwick wrote: >> emerge -cpv packagename > > Oddly enough, I ran that command, and it looks like all of those > packages are required by media-libs/mesa-17.3.9.

Thank you for the advice, you've both been very helpful! I'll take a look at it this evening.

Bug #656250 You shouldn't have any of these packages installed now, they should have been depcleaned after xorg-proto was installed. If depclean doesn't remove them, they still be required by a package in an overlay, that happened to me. emerge -cpv packagename should tell you why each package is still there. -- Neil Bothwick WinErr 014: Keyboard locked - Try anything you can think of. pgp8VmOPeDq2J.pgp Description: OpenPGP digital signature

In other words, you should be able to uninstall xextproto and the files that were in it are now in xorg-proto. It may be that you have to emerge xextproto again or it may even require a USE flag change to insure it creates the new files from the old package. If my memory has failed me, I'm sure someone will come along and correct me. ;-) Dale :-) :-)
