Hello,

I would like to prelink all my Gentoo.
For that, I followed the prelink guide, which told me to update my USE variable in my make.conf, that I made.
Then, I had to type the following command : e
Quote:
merge --update --newuse --deep world


But, when I'm doing this command, I only get this message :
Quote:
tux luc # emerge --update --deep --newuse world
Calculating world dependencies /
!!! All ebuilds that could satisfy "app-admin/eselect-opengl" have been masked.
!!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request:
- app-admin/eselect-opengl-1.0.2-r1 (masked by: ~x86 keyword)

For more information, see MASKED PACKAGES section in the emerge man page or
section 2.2 "Software Availability" in the Gentoo Handbook.
!!! (dependency required by "media-video/nvidia-glx-1.0.7676-r1" [ebuild])


!!! Problem with ebuild media-video/nvidia-glx-1.0.7676-r1
!!! Possibly a DEPEND/*DEPEND problem.

!!! Depgraph creation failed.


However, my /etc/portage/package.mask file is empty, so I don't understand from where it come from.
Made a cat /etc/profile, but only to see some non-understandable scripts [I'm not developer ;-)] and no sight at all of any package masked by something.

Can anyone help ??

Thanks in advance.

Well, you seem to be running some unstable packages that require the new eselect system of gentoo configurations. you should rather look in your /etc/portage/package.keywords file and see what you put there.
I'm not sure what unstable packages you are using there (maybe modular X packs) and whether you intend them to stay there. If you do you should just add to you package.keywords:

Code:
app-admin/eselect-opengl ~x86

Look here and here

I guess you have got something like
Code:
media-video/nvidia-glx ~x86
media-video/nvidia-kernel ~x86
in your /etc/portage/package.keywords, which makes portage want to install the latest, keyword-masked nvidia drivers, which depend on the latest, also keyword-masked eselect-opengl, which you didn't unmask in /etc/portage/package.keywords. That's why your update fails.

BTW, http://www.google.com is your friend. Search for "package" and "masked", and the first two results are the links shown above. Search first, then post. :)

chrbeke, you know, I searched through the forums many times before posting. Not so easy to find sometimes...
