Hello,

when I give emerge --ask --verbose-conflicts --keep-going --update --newuse --deep --with-bdeps=y --backtrack=1000 @world, I get the following output:

Code:

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

I experimented a little bit (e.g. adding a python 3.11 to opencv's USE flags) getting further messages that I also do not understand, plus this one.

This is why I would like to understand the root cause. Besides, I would like to know what ":0/0" means, which is the text enhanced red in the error message.

Thanks in advance!

I guess you have some entries in your /var/lib/portage/world of numpy with a specific version ... If so, clean your world-file (see more: https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-1143543-highlight-.html )

I also suggest to remove every defines of python in your make.conf AND in every file you have in /etc/portage/package.use

What is now the output of an "emerge -uUDvp @world" ?

(BTW: I never recommend --keep-going ... if there is a problem, it should be fixed and not skipped.)

"numpy" was not in the world file. Neither "python" nor "PYTHON" are in the make.conf file.

Among the files in /etc/portage/package.use, the string PYTHON has been commented out three years ago, probably due to a recommendation in the newsletter. The code around there looks like:

I admit that some files in /etc/portage/package.use/ look like museum stuff. I do not remember the occasion on which I wrote those entries. However, I doubt that they are the root cause of the problem.

A few entries have the word "python" as a USE flag (e.g. "media-gfx/gimp").

Thank you for the hint. I visited the Wiki at https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/User:Vaukai/checkworldfile and deselected a few entries. There are no entries in the world file with an specific version.

Unfortunately, the output is still the same as above.

If I read this correctly, the core problem is that you have a package dev-python/tables installed which isn't compatible with numpy-2.

Question is why numpy-2 is being pulled in as all listed dependency statements should be satisfied with the current stable numpy version. Try adding

Code:

>=dev-python/numpy-2_alpha1

to /etc/portage/package.mask and then run your world update command again to see if there are any hard dependencies on numpy-2 here.

At some point in a distant past I was able to solve a problem with that, and it is there since then. It probably brings nothing.

In the meantime, I tried deselecting three python packages, in the hope I will be able to emerge them again in the future. The packages are dev-python/tables, dev-python/pandas and dev-python/matplotlib. That was enough to get numpy-2 emerged. Reading the answer by Genone, it was probably too much.

Today, the 'eix-sync' followed by 'emerge' almost succeeded, because there of a final notice. It looks to me that it is a separate problem. In order to investigate, I followed the advice of logrusx. The output of emerge -uDUpvt @world is

Code:

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

Calculating dependencies... done!
Dependency resolution took 75.79 s (backtrack: 2/20).

!!! The following update(s) have been skipped due to unsatisfied dependencies
!!! triggered by backtracking:

www-client/firefox:rapid

I have no clue which firefox-dependencies are meant. The command 'emerge --search firefox' gives:

Code:

[ Results for search key : firefox ]

Investigating the USE flags brings more information. It looks like the new version 127 introduces several new defaults:

After some trial and error I found out that I have to manually disable the USE flag 'clang'. Then, emerge starts updating firefox to its latest version.

The next step will be to reinstate python tables, pandas, and matplotlib.

That doesn't make sense.

If you want to get help, you should provide the information you've been asked for and not arbitrarily run commands which were given for a situation that's different already. Don't take random actions until you get guidance, otherwise you're constantly changing the issue and no one would want to follow the whole irrelevant discussion to get to what you've currently got yourself into.

I posted all what I've got. The information you say was simply not there. I do not know why.

Quote:

I did not know that there was a more elegant way. I beg your pardon.

Quote:

I agree. I do not understand how the clang USE flag got in. The text "clang" only appeared as an enabled USE flag in three packages here (doxygen, libcrypt, and qt) and is now disabled in Firefox. Other than that, it appears nowhere in the whole /etc/portage/ tree. It was not there under the firefox USE flags before. Besides, clang is not in the /var/lib/portage/world file. When I say "is not there", I mean that "grep -Ri *" cannot find it. Now, after successfully emerging the updated version fo firefox (127.0), if I experiment not disabling the USE flag clang for Firefox, the command emerge -uDUpvt @world gives again:

Code:

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

Calculating dependencies... done!

!!! The following update(s) have been skipped due to unsatisfied dependencies

.
As stated above, I'm posting all the information that I've got on screen. It is very short and easy to copy paste.

I apologize for my behavior. I understand your frustration. I provided all the information I've got. I'm used to other forums, where the help is scarse at best, and I tend to also look for a solution myself.

It certainly did not get it, whatever you mean by that.

Usually what's meant by tree is the ebuild tree. If you mean the directories under /etc/portage, it's enough to just state the path. It's a noun by itself in Gentoo.

pstickar wrote:

It should not be there. Neither gcc. all those should be pulled in by packages that require them. You should not put dependencies in world and should be careful to always use --oneshot (-1 for short) when running emerge to fix something. This will prevent emerge from recording in world what you're trying to fix and should probably not be in world anyway and if you run it on something that's already in world, that's fine since it's already there. Only run emerge without -1 when you want to emerge something you want to keep, like firefox. The dependencies should not stay in world as they'll cause problems in the future. This is a good place to ask you to post your world file.

This output is rather strange. How do you elevate to root? What do you use? Su, sudo, doas, plain login and a root shell? Post your emerge --info.

Use wgetpaste as asked above. This will automatically put all the information online so there's no doubt. It'll include your emerge --info if the -i switch is passed, so you won't need a separate run and we won't need to ask you explicitly.

That's all right but you've ruined the conditions to investigate your initial issue and have now made it harder to diagnose your current issue.

p.s. some of the related bugs might explain that behavior, but not all of it:

The result of wgetpaste -ic 'emerge -uDUpvt @world' can be found in https://bpa.st/K26Q.

Note: the use flags for Firefox for the command above are:

Code:

If, instead, I add "-clang" to that line, the result is different: https://bpa.st/WGLQ.

To elevate to root I always use "sudo -".

I have to correct myself:

should've been:

I don't see something alarming in your world file except grub and grub:2. The former is not needed. Also you have jabref and jabref-bin. In general, you should be able to recognize everything in world. If you recognize something you run emerge on to fix something else, it should not be there as well as something you don't recognize at all. The dev-python stuff is suspicious unless you intentionally emerged it. Also from the emerge --info it's evident you're running unstable. Still I have no clue why there's no indication whatsoever which are the unsatisfied dependencies and for which version of firefox. I've asked Sam to look at this thread as that part seems suspicious to me. Regarding the elevation to root, do you remember touching bashrc or something related for root? Best Regards, Georgi

Hello Georgi,

This is certainly not intentional. Could you please tell me how to recognize the problem, or solve it? Every hint will be appreciated.

No, nothing altered here.

I've intentionally emerged the dev-python stuff. I've recently learned that working with environments is a much better way of doing things, but I'm slow with the change. I use jabref quite often. I know it is not mainained any more. I think that I recognize everything in that list.

It's not a problem, but rather a choice. It's indicated by ~ in your ACCEPT_KEYWORDS. The tilde sign in front of an arch keywords, in this case ~amd64 means, that portage will accept packages that are marked testing (~) for that architecture (amd64). The thing is most of the unstable packages are pretty stable already, but it's likely some will cause problems. That's why portage didn't complain about the testing version of nss required for firefox 127, because it's already available.

In your case ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="amd64 ~amd64" means portage will accept both stable and testing packages.

If you made that change because you wanted to install a testing package, consider using package.accept_keywords.

Both are good. Especially the first one because portage is run by python and if you have something in root's environment it can interfere with portage defaults.

I do not understand how the clang USE flag got in.

As I read the ebuild, =www-client/firefox-127.0 includes IUSE=+clang, so it both understands the clang USE flag and will enable it if not specifically overridden by you. I believe this is because some upstream projects, such as Firefox, have decided to treat clang as their primary compiler, and their support for gcc is generally treated as an afterthought. As a result, using clang for such packages is likely to lead to fewer frustrating experiences, so the Gentoo developers configure the ebuild to prefer the path that upstream recommends.

OK, it looks like this is bug #934385. Best Regards, Georgi
