Nope. X is in USE, as it should be because of:

Available profile symlink targets:

Not so here on this KDE box. I removed it from my world file and emerge -ca 
wanted to remove the server, so I put it back again, sharpish. I don't have 
x11-base/xorg-x11 though, not needing all that extra stuff; this is in

That's as it should be. Graphical programs are X clients, so they pull in
the client libraries. They need an X server to talk to, but not
necessarily on the same box.

Indeed. So Alan's advice should have been for the OP to remove either xorg-
server or xorg-x11.

I always keep full sources around for any runnable kernel I have, too
often I've been caught out needing to build a module without them :-)

Yes you are right. xorg-x11 is a sort-of -meta package for everything
x11 and it's OK to use xorg-server alone without xorg-x11

Thelma had both in world

I combine these two ideas and have a set called dependencies that
contains a commented list of packages that are needed by non-portage
software. Then I just emerge -n @dependencies.

The -n flag is useful when cleaning world, it adds the package to world
without re-emerging it unnecessarily.

You don't need the source package for the kernel you're running, you've
already compiled it, but there's another sets trick you can use to
prevent depclean from removing kernel packages, put this
in /etc/portage/sets.conf

[kernels]
class = portage.sets.dbapi.OwnerSet
world-candidate = False
files = /usr/src

It stops depclean removing any package that has files in /usr/src.

Yes, the system is few years old.
It make me wonder if the problem might be cause by me emerging:

emerge -avC libjpeg-turbo
emerge -av1 media-libs/jpeg:0 media-libs/jpeg:62

I'm using obsolete "nxclient-3.5.0.7" as I need it and there is no good
replacement alternative on Gentoo.

After running above I get:
sed: -e expression #1, char 7: unknown command: `/'

Shouldn't it be:
sed -i /libs\/d /var/lib/portage/world

This one doesn't produce any result.

This contains quite a lot of libraries. As a rule of thumb, you should
rarely have libraries in world as you don't use them - the software you
have in world uses them. You can quickly clean them out with

sed -i /libs\//d /var/lib/portage/world

Then run emerge --depclean --ask to clear out any that are no longer

You have a lot of clutter and junk in there. When you add dependant libs
to world, you remove portage's ability to do the right thing, and you
then have to do it all yourself. Humans never get this right - witness
your recent woes.

Enclosing the 'sed' commands in single quotes would do it:

sed -i '/libs\//d' /var/lib/portage/world

Not necessarily - dev-libs/check is for unit testing. It's not a direct
dependency of any packages (or at least, shouldn't be), but it comes in
useful for developers. It's in my world.

I solved this one an old fashion way :-) capture the boot process with

It was nothing serious, "slim" was complaining about jpeg library; I
re-emerge slim.

Just changing the dep on the ebuild to the virtual and rebuilding may do it. 
Since it's no longer in the tree it should be put on a overlay anyways.

The problem though, is that media-libs/libjpeg-turbo as it's built on gentoo 
is not exactly ABI compatible with media-libs/jpeg:62. It's may be close 
enough that it may even fool revdep-rebuild but media-libs/jpeg:62 does not 
contain versioned symbols, that's why the linker complains about the 
@LIBJPEG_6.2 symbols. He may need a command to rebuild everything that depends 
on jpeg manually. Or fix that ebuild, and switch back to jpeg-turbo.

Yes, I do. It might not be the correct way of doing things but I find it 
practical to run server and workstation as one machine.
Easy to manage and only one computer working (running 7/24).

The way I manage it, I have several computers configures similarly (older ones) 
as backup.  I upgrade older one first, if most of the major programs I run are 
still running without problems I upgrade main server.  If something goes wrong, 
it is easier (less downtime) to just boot older machine point IP to it in 
firewall and I'm back and running.  
Sometimes troubleshoot something takes time.  
The problem could be harder as well (power supply, fan on CPU etc); so running 
server/workstation combo (as one machine) is easier.  If something goes wrong, 
I just boot older machine point IP address in firewall to older machine and I'm 
back in business in 10min.

You can use sets to emerge ... sets of packages.

In this case:

 emerge -a @module-rebuild

will do what you're after.  To see list of all sets available look at the 
output of:

$ emerge --list-sets

(Hmm ... Some of them don't make much sense to me, e.g. what is 
selected/selected-packages/selected-sets?)

Yes, I escaped the / with \ for sed but forgot to then escape the \
for the shell. The reason for deleting all lines containing libs/ rather
than just libs is to only remove entries from a *-libs category.

Sometimes you can try too hard :(

OK. Such anomolies do happen, I have a few myself. Usually for my own
code which obviously has no ebuild.

The only truism is still true - a Gentoo user must know their system
well enough to know *why* they put something in world

Keeping in world only:
sys-kernel/gentoo-sources

will keep the newest kernel in world and unmerge 3.10.17 the one I'm using

I see you are getting the hang of it but I still see some oddities in
your reply. There's a few things to keep in mind about Gentoo, that are
worth repeating. Eventually, I does all imprint in your brain :-)

Every old-timer here has gone through this learning process - even the
old farts like me (and James...) - and it took us many years to figure
out as a community how to deal with world.

Cleanups: Sometimes when cleaning up you'll delete something you really
do need, and you forget why you put it in world. Maybe emerge world puts
it back, but more likely stuff just breaks. Keep a list of all removals
so if you find breakage you can add things back. The classic case is
libs you need for your own code - you probably don't have an ebuild for
that and therefore no deps for portage to use.

Virtuals: you don't add the virtual to world. A virtual is a collection
of packages that all do the same thing and you can pick which one you
want. So you add oracle-jdk-bin to world, and the ebuild depends on
virtual/jdk. oracle-jdk-bin satisfied the virtual, so all is good. If
you unmerge oracle-jdk-bin and use icedtea instead, everything still
works. If you add a virtual to world, portage tends to just pick the
first one in the list which might not be what you want. Rather be explicit.

Sets: You have a many-purpose machine so you might find sets useful,
mostly because you can't add comments to world. You can with sets. They
are just files in /etc/portage/sets/ that list packages. You add them to
the system with emerge @. Here is one of mine:

$ cat /etc/portage/sets/alan-kde
kde-apps/kdeadmin-meta
kde-apps/kdeartwork-meta
kde-apps/kdebase-meta
kde-apps/kdebase-runtime-meta
kde-apps/kdegraphics-meta
kde-apps/kdemultimedia-meta
kde-apps/kdenetwork-meta
kde-apps/kdeutils-meta
#kde-base/kde-meta:4
#kde-base/kdeaccessibility-meta:4
#kde-base/kdebindings-meta:4
#kde-base/kdeedu-meta:4
#kde-base/kdegames-meta:4
#kde-base/kdepim-meta:4
#kde-base/kdesdk-meta:4
#kde-base/kdetoys-meta:4
#kde-base/kdewebdev-meta:4

and install using emerge -av@alan-kde

portage expands the name to the contents of the file and merges them.
Easy peasy.

You edit set files by hand so you can comment them. Perhaps you could
create a set for each major thing you do with that computer and make a
set for each one. This way you can easily keep track of major packages
types and comment *why* you did it.

jpeg: if it works the best is to remove all jpeg packages from world and
let portage deal with it. None of my gentoo machines have a jpeg package
in world. But you have nxclient which needs an old jpeg. We you can get
away with automagic, we'll have to see what happens when you do a full
emerge world

soxr: I'm not sure why this is giving a problem. If ffmpeg needs it, it
should be pulled in directly

jpeg on boot: Depends when the error happens, if you use openrc and it
happens during runlevel start, you can read /var/log/rc.log. Before that
point there's dmesg. We'd need to have more detail to answer better.

USE: There's no such thing as a correct USE :-) It's all just user
choices. So if it does what you want, it's all good. The only thing you
should not do is start USE with -*. A few people here do that and swear
by it, but it comes with a massive maintenance load on you, and vast
potential for side effects as you remove things you may need, and you
don't know you need them. That's why we have profiles, to set up a
minimally correct USE

Kernel sources work differently. They are the only package where every
version must be it's own SLOT, and one of very few that only unpacks
sources and have no equivalent to a make step.

gentoo-sources will always add the latest sources when you update world,
and then they stay there forever. You must manually build a kernel and
install it, and unmerging the package only removes the original sources.

By all means have kernel sources with versions or slots in world, it
only means that you want to keep the original sources around so portage
won't remove them. To fully delete a kernel version you have to unmerge
the package, rm the source directory in /usr/src, rm the modules dir in
/lib/modules, rm the files in /boot and edit grub.conf

Suggestion.  To avoid that world file getting cluttered up again, why
not add -1 or --oneshot to your make.conf for emerge defaults?  That way
you can emerge away and not worry about it being added to your world
file.  If you really want something added to the world file, just add
--select y to the command line and it will override the -1 option set in
the defaults. 

Basically, if something gets added to the world file, you put effort
into it being added.  I've done mine that way for a long time now and it
is rare that something gets added to the world file that I don't know
about.  Also, if you install something just to play around with but
don't know if you really want it or not, it will remind you on the next
--depclean run.  It will be listed to remove since it's not in the world
file.  So, if you decide not to keep it around, it will be removed for
you when you clean the unneeded stuff out. 

Just a thought.

Even better - Thelma should just post the entire /var/lib/portage/world
file so we can advise what to take out.

Most newbies clutter up their world needlessly, it takes a bit of

Interesting, I have never seen that before. Is it possible to get that
linked to on the mailing list page[1]?

I tried to download it but got a 403 Forbidden HTTP error.

This might be a bad suggestion, but if you have a lot of time, it might
be easier to uninstall audacity and any other packages that have been
giving you problems, then `emerge -uDN --with-bdeps=y @world`, then
`emerge --depclean', and then install all the stuff you need.

I believe someone else mentioned checking /var/lib/portage/world and
making sure that it doesn't contain any virtuals - it might also be good
to remove from it any software that you do not directly need.

Thank you all for your suggestions I receive it, I'll try to follow them
through and see if I get a positive result to this error.

I've tried to post a "log" file to the http://pastebin.com/ you
suggested but I can only paste the limited size file (not upload it).
Since the txt file is 7.4Mb in size, I can not paste it.
Though, I have compress the file as tar.gz (so it is only 267kB)
here is the link:

http://www.sysconcept.ca/audacity_error.tar.gz

If somebody whats to look at it, I appreciate it.
Meanwhile, I'll be following other folks suggestion and see if I can get
a positive result to this error.

I hear you, but there's also a grand unwritten gentoo-user tradition of
using the good old clue-by-four (or a LART) when warranted. We find the
same on -dev

The vast majority of the audience here are very knowledgeable and
comfortable in their skin. Speakers often speak their mind, listeners
often listen, offence is seldom taken.

The web forum OTOH, is very different. There I would agree with
patrolling for code of conduct violations.

Every list has their own particular preference to things. Here on
gentoo-user, since the very beginning, list users have preferred to not
use pastebin services - they go away and the real information is forever
lost.

There's never a good reason for use needing an entire build log if it's
big, it's fine to find the first error in the log and send from there to
the end. Users quickly discover how to find the first error.

I have found that it is usually "Error 1".  That's what I put in the
Find thingy to look for IF it is not real close by.  I generally go up a
few lines and then start my copy and paste. 

I can't count how many times I have searched for a problem and run into
paste bin links that no longer work.  It is really aggravating when you
think you found something and it turns out it has disappeared.

Okay, so identify it, communicate it, and move on.

One useful reference [1] I've come across is a description of "How to
ask questions the smart way" - a guide on what sort of information to
include and general etiquette when posting to lists and IRC etc.
Perhaps that could be referred to when suggesting improvements on how
to ask questions.

Either way, I think the point has now been covered. :)

Since you're too stupid to follow advice, you need to rebuild *EVERYTHING* 
that linked against libjpeg (in this case x11-libs/wxGTK).

He was told what the problem was on his first post about libjpeg-turbo, he 
didn't just ignore it but posted the wrong solution with a big SOLVED on the 
subject that only serves to mislead future users of this list. On his last 
post about this same error (different package) I politely told him to go back 
and follow the advise on that post, again he ignored it and posted a bogus 
solution (it worked because he rebuilt tiff, perl had nothing to do with it). 
revdep-rebuild may (or may not) fix it now, but the right solution is to remove 
or fix the obsolete package to depend on virtual/jpeg, update world properly,

This language occasionally belongs on this list.

OK. Maybe we all got off on the wrong foot here. When you ask for help,
can you please provide:

* the *exact* command you ran
* the output of `emerge --info'
* the whole error, not just the part you think is relevant

It is incredibly difficult for us to help when we only get a small piece
of what's going on with your system.

So someone posted an issue(s), then marked it solved when they got a
workaround which may not resolve the actual issue but got them past
their initial problem(s).

Your argument to that is that their "false solution" will mislead
future readers of the list. Doesn't the same apply to insulting
participants of the list? Not to mention this comes shortly after a
discussion about attracting new blood into the Gentoo community.

You don't have to participate in this thread. You could also simply
say "I said in your previous posts that you need to do /this/."

We should never resort to insults and name calling if we want this to
be a productive list. If there's a problem with someone, either stop
replying to their messages, take it up with them directly (and
diplomatically), or bring it up with the list owner [1,2].

This kind of language does not belong here. If you can not refrain
yourself making sarcastic remarks don't make any comments.

I would appreciate you stop reading my posts at all.
I don't belong to Gentoo community.

First check that you have not inadvertently added any virtual packages in 
/var/lib/portage/world.  If so remove them, portage will bring them back if 
needed.  Then use:

emerge -uaNDv world
emerge --depclean -p -v
emerge @preserved-rebuild -p
revdep-rebuild -v -- -a

perl-cleaner is also a good to run anytime portage updates any perl packages.

Have a look at 'man qdepends' for direct and reverse dependencies of different 
packages.  In your case jpeg seems to be borked, so investigate jpeg and jpeg 
libraries with the above tools to see what may be causing the problem.  It 
could be that a package is in world that shouldn't be, or it could be that you 
have some USE flag set that forces portage into a knot.

HTH.

Apology if I didn't most enough information. I know should have post "emerge 
--info" but when it comes to error log.  It is very, very long and email 
wouldn't be able to accept it; so I cat the ending message as this is the point 
it stop compiling.

For large files, you can either paste the file to a pastebin service
and give us the URL, compress it with gzip or bzip2 and attach that,
or give us the last 250 lines or so.

The reason for this is because the error you see in the logs may not
be the first error or the one that is causing the build to fail - the
more information we have, the more information available to help
resolve an issue.

Either way, no harm done.

> Emergeing "x11-libs/wxGTK" did not help.

I haven't been following along with the threads, but as far as I
understand there's an obsolete package that has a dependency that
conflicts with newer packages. If that's the case, you would need to
deal with that obsolete package.

There's also been suggestion of using revdep-rebuild - have you tried
that?

I have no excuse for name calling, that was wrong and I should've handled it 
better. Hopefully s/he'll get over it. 

It's arguable if that makes the list less productive, but certainly posting a 
new thread every few hours about the same issue will make it less productive.
