 Posted: Sun Jan 12, 2025 3:08 am Post subject: Plasma powerdevil and plasma-workspace conflict |
 |
|
I'm trying to update plasma and I can't get past this final conflict. It's trying to merge powerdevil, but it runs into files from plasma-workspace.
| Code: | >>> Installing (623 of 625) kde-plasma/powerdevil-6.2.4::gentoo
* checking 68 files for package collisions
* This package will overwrite one or more files that may belong to other
* packages (see list below). You can use a command such as `portageq
* owners / <filename>` to identify the installed package that owns a
* file. If portageq reports that only one package owns a file then do
* NOT file a bug report. A bug report is only useful if it identifies at
* least two or more packages that are known to install the same file(s).
* If a collision occurs and you can not explain where the file came from
* then you should simply ignore the collision since there is not enough
* information to determine if a real problem exists. Please do NOT file
* a bug report at https://bugs.gentoo.org/ unless you report exactly
* which two packages install the same file(s). See
* https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Knowledge_Base:Blockers for tips on how
* to solve the problem. And once again, please do NOT file a bug report
* unless you have completely understood the above message.
*

It looks like those files now belong to a different package in KDE Plasma 6 than they were in KDE Plasma 5. They were previously owned and installed by kde-plasma/plasma-workspace-5.27.11.1-r1 but will now provided by kde-plasma/powerdevil-6.2.4. They will be overwritten with the updated versions. If that is acceptable to you, which it appears that it should be you can try:
| Code: | | FEATURES="-collision-detect -protect-owned" emerge =kde-plasma/powerdevil-6.2.4 |
to ignore the collisions and allow the packages to install the newer file versions. The old plasma-workspace will be removed on depclean and only powerdevil will own or provide those files moving forward. |

Please don't do this. It promotes a bad habit.
Instead, the OP should resync to get the updated powerdevil 6.4.2-r1 published a month ago which will avoid this issue. |

Thank you for pointing that out. I assumed OP (and others) would only do updates immediately after a sync operation or VERY recent sync. I always do that for over 20 years now and it never occurred to me that others might not do the same. |
