Posted: Mon Dec 19, 2005 7:35 pm Post subject: Installing Samba on GUI-less server [SOLVED] |
|
|
Hi all,
I have a server {gentoo 2005.1} that is and will be GUI less {-X11 -Gnome -KDE, etc}
When I try to emerge samba I get this:
-------------Begin---------------------------------
SERVER1 ~ # emerge -vp samba
These are the packages that I would merge, in order:
Calculating dependencies /
!!! All ebuilds that could satisfy "x11-libs/libXt" have been masked.
!!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request:
- x11-libs/libXt-0.99.3 (masked by: package.mask)
# Donnie Berkholz <spyderous@gentoo.org> (07 Aug 2005)
# Modularized X, upstream release candidates
- x11-libs/libXt-1.0.0 (masked by: package.mask)
For more information, see MASKED PACKAGES section in the emerge man page or
refer to the Gentoo Handbook.
(dependency required by "app-text/xpdf-3.01-r3" [ebuild])
-------------End------------------------------------
Any ideas? _________________ Where there is a will there is a way!

It's probably a dependency tied to one of the USE flags. Try disabling them individually until you find it. (Or, better yet, disable them all, and only re-enable the ones you need) |

Cool thanks for the quick reply..
However, here is my current use:
USE="nptl mmx mmx2 sse sse2 ssl bash-completion bashlogger pic -X -x11" _________________ Where there is a will there is a way!

Well I commented out the USE in my make.conf.
Samba still wants libXt as dependency to xpdf...
I went a step further and renamed my make.conf to something else... {essentially have no make.conf at all}
Still same issue....

try to emerge -vpt samba
it will generate a tree showing you which package pulls the depencies. _________________ Registered Linux user number 369644

That's not sufficient. There are default flags, as well as (possibly) flasg defined in /etc/portage/package.use
I'd follow the above advice, but also try this for testing purposes: Code: | # USE="-*" emerge -pv samba |
That shuts of all USE flags.
I'm wondering why any of samba's dependencies would be MASKED, though. Do you have something silly like "ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" in your make.conf? |

I thought he masked all X related stuff to ensure it won't get merged. _________________ Registered Linux user number 369644

That's not a great idea. If you want to use unstable packages, it's much safer to define them in /etc/portage/package.keywords. |

Looks like one of those USE flags is creating a dependency that requires xpdf somewhere along the line. Try commenting out the ACCEPT_KEYWORDS line and trying this again: Code: | # emerge -pvt samba |
You should be able to see the dependency chain, without the masking problem getting in the way. |

Ok I seem to have a mix of ~x86 and x86. As this is a JackAss build..
i.e. NPTL. Which was built with x86 with only a select few {required}
apps as ~x86 in my package.use...
I had inadvertly changed my make.conf to ~x86, fortunately this was fairly
recent. I am now back to x86 and I am rolling back the system packages to
x86 now and will try samba again.
I will post my progress...
It would be best to use this server with only GenToo Stable {well that is as stable as can be}
Thanks again for all the great feedback... _________________ Where there is a will there is a way!

Well the issue went away when I emerge samba with -cups
It seems for whatever reason cups needs some x library. _________________ Where there is a will there is a way!

Yes, cups wants the Xpdf, why?
there should be no need to install an XServer on a stand-alone server... |

Could you provide us with a emerge -pvt cups?  _________________ -- I'll eat it-- |

I had a similar problem earlier this week, and ConiKost is correct, adding "-motif" to your useflags will allow you to emerge xpdf without X11, and thus satisfy the dependancy that cups has mysteriously developed for xpdf. I presume this is to allow the good ol' "Print to PDF" option but why it needs xpdf as opposed to some other pdf writer is beyond me. |
