Hello,
I would like to know the best way to find dependencies or the portage tree so i know what is going to be emerged as far as packages.
Example. if i'm going to do an install and want to see what media-libs/mesa pulls in is there a way to get the info without using emerge. tools like qdepends and equery are only showing me bdepenss rdependss pdependss iuse etc. also these tools are basically for installed packages. i know if i do equery d -a it will give me packages that aren't installed but it fails a lot and doesn't give me any list. also i know that packages.gentoo.org has a dependencies view and reverse dependencies view but it doesn't tell me what emerge will do. how does emerge choose that packages to install.
If this is confusing i can re-word everything
Thanks
Joe |

I am not sure I understand you so I am trying to understand from your above statement that | Code: | | emerge -pvt <the intended package name> |
is not what you want? why? |

And other tools don't take into account USE flag settings, package masks, etc. emerge --pretend --verbose, as pingtoo pointed out (adding --tree can make the output easier to understand), is the only reliable way I know for telling what would be actually installed.

Thanks for the reply
Is there a tool that can show me what will be installed besides emerge? Like something i can see online from a gentoo website or is emerge the only way ? |

Got it
The -t for tree that shows all packages that will be installed or dependencies ? qdepends or equery dosen't show me anything like that |

An online tool is not practical here, because that tool cannot know what you have already installed, so it would always show you every dependency, recursively, of the package you are contemplating.
What are you trying to do here? Why are you trying so hard to avoid using emerge? |

Thanks,
Not trying to avoid emerge i like it i just want to see how it works. not just installing packages but how it determins what package to install what depenancie leads to a package being installed.
When i did an install it installed clang and llvm and it took forever about 5 hours each lol i'm trying to avoid getting packages or deps that will take forever. i want to mask them right away if i can get away with it

I will use a sample out to illustrate the idea. Notice I also include -k option to get binary packages. | Code: | rpi5 ~ # emerge -pvtk qtwebengine
These are the packages that would be merged, in reverse order:

Those with word "nomerge" are information-only. it try to help you understand how others got pull in.
Those with word "ebuild" mean emerge will build them (comple/install) on your local machine.
Those with workd "binary" mean emerge will retrire the binary version of the package from your local binary cache or (binhost if you configured one) and perform binary install. |

I'm really trying to understand emerge and how it works. I'll just take it at face value and realize that emerge will do what it wants and thats what it does Lol. qdepends and equery are helpful but they are just tools that show what is needed
Quick question. I read somewhere that the dependencies of an atom are indented. i see in some of your output there are some indented but some are not.. What does that mean if they aren't ?
Thanks

Thanks for the reply
I noticed you didn't use the -t in emerge for the tree and all the ebuilds (packages) are just regular no indents nothing. meaning they aren't deps probably ? I'm still very new to gentoo

I am not able to understand this question. I got a feeling you moved away from your original question. I am under impression you want to know emerge show you how/what it will do to arrive your goal (build the argument=package).
So how do you arrive the question that "they aren't deps probably?"?
Since you notice the two output are for same package. Just one with '-t' and the other without. So they are just two different way to present same goal. The "-t" version give more information on why emerge choose to build some packages that are not argument but because dependency. The no "-t" version just indicate all listed packages will be install on to location. |

Hello,
Sorry if i'm not articulating this the way it should be coming out..
I want to know how emerge picks what the depenancies are and what packages to use.. when i use tools like qdepends and equery none of them show me the packages that emerge uses. I Just want to know the mechanics
Thanks

emerge vs ebuild.
Emerge use a configuration file that describe what need to be done in order to fulfill the command line argument. The configuration file known as "ebuild".
Ebuild are provided by Gentoo developer/maintainer that base on the upstream program/application developer defined requirement and Gentoo's Portage guidance choose use "USE" flags to control optional components for the given program/application use during build/run time.
Sometime packages show in emerge output are build time requirement. So qdepends and equery may not show them because it is not necessary required for using the package.
A simple build time requirement would be language compiler. it is required for building the package, however it is not required for running the package. |

I'm really trying to understand emerge and how it works. |
It creates a graph based on dependencies which reflects what is already installed and what the desired package also depends on which is not yet installed. It is a DAG (directed acyclic graph) meaning it has a topological order. Topological order is an order of vertices such that if an edge u -> v exists, v never comes before u in the sequence. Here v and u are packages and an edge v -> u is a dependency, meaning u depends on v. I might be wrong about the order as I'm not familiar with the particular implementation, the idea is the same.
It then strops that graph from dependencies already emerged and produces a topological order from the rest. This is the order in which the packages will be emerged.
However sometimes there are cyclical dependencies and on those occasions portage gives up and spits something at you to solve. It gets more complicated because there are run-time and build-time dependencies, use flags and so on. If you install binary packages, built-time dependencies will not be installed or only those that are needed to build the packages that are not available as binaries.
Other times all dependencies cannot be satisfied at once, and then again portage spits out something at you to solve.
Adding --tree option to emerge will make it display those edges which in our case are dependencies.
Best Regards,
Georgi |
