 Posted: Tue Mar 18, 2025 10:30 pm Post subject: Having trouble using emerge |
 |
|
Hello,
I am currently trying to setup a gentoo virtual machine using the live CD option. (I would like to learn how to do everything without copy pasting)
I am currently stuck on emerging the gentoo kernel. Sorry for bad formatting or if I posting in the wrong section.
The error is the following:
| Code: |
!!! The ebuild selected to satisy ">syskernel/installkernel-14[ugrd(-)]" has unmet requirements.
- syskernel/installkernel-56::gentoo UISE="dracut efistub systemd systemd-boot uki -grub -refind -ugrd -ukify" ABI_X86="(64)"
The following REQUIRED_USE flag constraints are unsatisfied:
at-most-one-of (dracut ugrd)
|
What that tells me is that the USE flags is unsatisfied, pretty easy I think. So i go to to /etc/portage/make.conf to check and this is what I currently have:
| Code: |
USE="modules-sign dracut"
|
If I edit it to have anything else (efistub) it doesn't seem to change. I'm a little lost here, and while I am sure it's in the manual, I have already kinda spent over 6 or 7 hours scouring the web.
Please help.
PS: if someone can help me copy paste from vmbox to the host, that would be awesome. |

Bovbo,
Then | Code: | | wgetpaste -c 'some_command arg1 arg2 ...' |
Or | Code: | | wgetpaste /path/to/file |
and tell us the URL.
You may need to play with the -s and -S knobs for bigger pastes.
| Code: | $ wgetpaste -c 'emerge --info'
Your paste can be seen here: https://bpa.st/XC3Q |
The command and its entire output would be good.
Your error fragment
| Code: | The following REQUIRED_USE flag constraints are unsatisfied:
at-most-one-of (dracut ugrd) |
suggests that you have two conflicting USE flags set. You are allowed at most one from that list.
dracut and ugrd are both tools to build your initramfs, so you can only use one.

found this in my old notes - i think it's still relevant - couldn't find the link from Wiki
| Code: | REQUIRED_USE="foo? ( bar )" If foo is set, bar must be set.
REQUIRED_USE="foo? ( !bar )" If foo is set, bar must not be set.
REQUIRED_USE="foo? ( || ( bar baz ) )" If foo is set, bar or baz must be set.
REQUIRED_USE="^^ ( foo bar baz )" Exactly one of foo bar or baz must be set.
REQUIRED_USE="|| ( foo bar baz )" At least one of foo bar or baz must be set.
REQUIRED_USE="?? ( foo bar baz )" No more than one of foo bar or baz may be set. |

Are you sure you transcribed everything correctly? To recap our situation:- sys-kernel/installkernel allows at-most-one-of dracut and ugrd. Your output says that, and the ebuild seems to say the same.
- Your output says you have USE=dracut -ugrd, which should work.
- You enabled USE=dracut globally. I am not saying this is wrong or right, but noting it for completeness.
- You have not enabled ugrd globally.
- installkernel does not default-enable either of those flags.
- Your emerge --info does not show USE=ugrd enabled.
Putting all that together, your output showing USE="dracut -ugrd" looks expected - but if that were right, why is Portage reporting an unsatisfied constraint, since you do have exactly one of those two flags? Please share the URL from wgetpaste -c 'emerge --pretend --verbose sys-kernel/installkernel'. |

Here you go. I hope I transcribed everything correctly. As requested here you go.

Dependency resolution took 1.30 s (backtrack: 3/20).

* IMPORTANT: 21 news items need reading for repository 'gentoo'.
* Use eselect news read to view new items.

Hope that helps.
Just also noticed that it says a masked dependency is required, could I have been missing that? But I don't understand since IU have the @BINARY-REDISTRIBUTABLE flag enabled. Or am I just wrong? |

Portage tries to install unstable packages for installkernel and dracut, but ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="amd64" is for a stable system.
The question is, whether you want a stable (maybe with a few unstable packages) or an unstable system? |

One important point that people are missing is that the above, incomplete, output is autounmask trying to enable ugrd but being blocked by the dracut USE.
If we had the full output of the original command, then this can be solved as well. Making more changes without this information is ill advised. |

Hmmm ... maybe we should ask PO for the output of:
| Code: | | # grep -r --exclude-dir=savedconfig --exclude-dir=repos.conf "" /etc/portage |

That may not be too helpful as Portage is noticing the conflict before writing the staging file.
Edit: But then again, such output might as the keywords don't line up as you say in your post. Certainly there is more happening than what is being mentioned. The OP also shows ~amd64 build selected. |
