 Posted: Sat Apr 02, 2005 7:00 pm Post subject: howto unmerge apache 1.3 [solved] |
 |
|
Hi-
I'm trying to get apache 1.3 removed from my system.
I use apache2 and don't want unecessary apache1 files laying around.
emerge search apache doesn't list apache 1.3 but apache2.
| Code: |
net-www/apache
Latest version available: 2.0.52-r1
Latest version installed: 2.0.52-r1
Size of downloaded files: 6,779 kB
Homepage: http://www.apache.org/
Description: Apache Web Server, Version 2.0.x
License: Apache-2.0
|
The following bash shows that both executables are on my system:
| Code: |
hawk mysqlBackup # /usr/sbin/apache -v
Server version: Apache/1.3.32 (Unix) (Gentoo/Linux)
Server built: Feb 11 2005 04:38:38
hawk mysqlBackup # /usr/sbin/apache2 -v
Server version: Apache/2.0.52
Server built: Feb 21 2005 11:29:34
hawk mysqlBackup #
hawk mysqlBackup # cat /etc/init.d/apache | grep bin
#!/sbin/runscript
env -i PATH=$PATH PERL5LIB=PERL5LIB /sbin/start-stop-daemon -o --quiet \
--start --startas /usr/sbin/apache \
/usr/sbin/apachectl stop >/dev/null
/usr/sbin/apache -t ${APACHE_OPTS} &>/dev/null
/usr/sbin/apache -t ${APACHE_OPTS}
hawk mysqlBackup # cat /etc/init.d/apache2 | grep bin
#!/sbin/runscript
/usr/sbin/apache2 -t ${APACHE2_OPTS} 1>/dev/null 2>&1
/usr/sbin/apache2 -t ${APACHE2_OPTS}
env -i PATH=$PATH /sbin/start-stop-daemon --quiet \
--start --startas /usr/sbin/apache2 \
/usr/sbin/apache2ctl stop >/dev/null
/usr/sbin/apache2 ${APACHE2_OPTS} -k ${RESTARTSTYLE}
hawk mysqlBackup # ls /usr/sbin/ | grep apache
apache
apache2
apache2ctl
apache2logserverstatus
apache2splitlogfile
apacheaddmod
apachectl
apachedelmod
apachelogserverstatus
apachesplitlogfile

I'm sure there has got to be an easy way to get rid of apache 1. Any ideas?
Is there any reason why I would want to keep apache 1.3 on my system?
Cheers,

Here's what you're looking for:
Read the emerge manpage for details. |

Thank You!
As you said, right from the man file:
| Quote: |
--prune (-P)
WARNING: This action can remove important packages! Tries to remove all but the last
version installed. Since the command currently doesn't handle multiple versions of the
same package properly, beware ! This does not check dependencies, so it may also remove
packages necessary for the proper operation of your system. Use --clean instead unless
you really know what you're doing. Its arguments can be ebuilds, classes, or dependen-
cies -- see --clean above for examples. You have been warned !
--ask (-a)
Before performing the merge, display what ebuilds and tbz2s will be installed, in the
same format as when using --pretend; then ask whether to continue with the merge or
abort. Using --ask is more efficient than using --pretend and then executing the same
command without --pretend, as dependencies will only need to be calculated once.

| Code: |
hawk apacheConfBackup # emerge -Pa apache
>>> These are the packages that I would unmerge:
net-www/apache
selected: 1.3.32-r1
protected: 2.0.52-r1
omitted: none
>>> 'Selected' packages are slated for removal.
>>> 'Protected' and 'omitted' packages will not be removed.
Do you want me to unmerge these packages? [Yes/No] yes

Why in my case is apache2 selected, and apache 1.3 protected?
| Code: |
>>> These are the packages that I would unmerge:
net-www/apache
selected: 2.0.52-r1
protected: 1.3.33-r2
omitted: none
>>> 'Selected' packages are slated for removal.
>>> 'Protected' and 'omitted' packages will not be removed.
|
I realize I can specify version 1.3.33-r2 on the "emerge -Pa" command line, but the fact that its listed as protected makes me worry about pruning it. Why is it protected and how can I safely get rid of it? Thanks. |

| Answering my own question, I simply emerged the latest apache (and mod_perl, as I had the same issue there). Now when I run "emerge -Pa mod_perl apache", I see the older versions selected, as I hoped. |
