Update 0.1.4.0_beta10 [git] --toolchain, --perl

Beta 2c, minor bugfix for resume display bug. While I was there, took new resume code from development version, as it was written a while ago, and has been refined a bit as well. I really like it-- you'll only see it when there's more than 10 packages to emerge. They are sorted according to category, with the categories in order of emerge, nicely coloured. Toolchain and rebuilds are broken out of the compact listing:

Hi SteveL,

the error/bug is back!

Ok - after commenting out EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS="--color y" the script works as presumed - it even asks if I want to continue with a revdep-rebuild ;-)

As far as I can see the script handles only "--quiet" and "--verbose" - very other option specified let's it bail out ...

Ok - thanks for your fast reaction!

I'll be away the next 10 days so no time to troubleshoot ;-)

Hello,

I have found a small bug...

When there are no more place left on the device, the script hang ... without exiting...

I discovered it when I did a genlop -c on a update of bzip

New version. Gah didn't fix the outta space thing yet, sorry. This one has major changes (it's the one we've been working on for the last couple of months while only minor fixes have been going out.) As ever, bug reports welcome :)

hi,

I found a problem in the new 0.1.4.0_beta3a version.
After an error I get the message:

I am stuck! The script stops while trying to install parted-1.8.7. I cannot emerge that version parted either but can emerge parted-1.8.8.
Would you please tell me where to change the package version as referenced by the update script?
Thanks a mill.

ok so it sounds more like a src download issue.

"update" is at its core a wrapper around emerge (a very clever wrapper I might add

) so when you type "update foo" what it eventually does is "emerge foo" (sorry steveL for reducing the script to its core).

So two interesting things here

1) there is no timeout/retries on the source (iirc there is an /etc/make.conf option)
2) portage is trying to install a version of parted that is, as far as your profile is concerned, depreciated

The only reason why an older version of a certain package is being pulled in/installed is because another application has got a setting that say "no newer versions"

What is the EXACT line you are typing when you are using update and also what is the output of emerge world -uvDp <= this might show what the real package that is giving issues is

simply "update"

and also what is the output of emerge world -uvDp <= this might show what the real package that is giving issues is[/quote]

emerge world -uvDp

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating world dependencies |
!!! Multiple versions within a single package slot have been
!!! pulled into the dependency graph:

x11-base/xorg-server:0

('ebuild', '/', 'x11-base/xorg-server-1.4-r4', 'merge') pulled in by
('ebuild', '/', 'net-misc/vnc-4.1.2-r5', 'merge')

('ebuild', '/', 'x11-base/xorg-server-1.4.0.90', 'merge') pulled in by
('installed', '/', 'x11-drivers/xf86-input-elographics-1.1.0', 'nomerge')
('ebuild', '/', 'x11-drivers/ati-drivers-8.443.1-r1', 'merge')
('ebuild', '/', 'x11-drivers/xf86-input-magellan-1.1.1', 'merge')
(and 77 more)

The script has been running for about 20hrs so I guess the above comes from that.

Then all the packages are listed with the following at the bottom:
Total: 359 packages (335 upgrades, 2 downgrades, 20 new, 2 in new slots), Size of downloads: 1,629,406 kB

An "emerge -av =parted-1.8.7" also fails while trying to download while an "emerge -av parted" pulls in 1.8.8??

ok type this:

update -p

need to see what update is trying to pull in AND in what order and for what reason. This is more a package dependency issue just causing problems with update/portage

This is the only difference with the previous posting. There are 362 apps, do you want me to post all of the results?

I need some sleep and will continue this tomorrow.

Thanks for your assistance.
