 Posted: Thu Dec 07, 2006 9:15 am Post subject: sudo emerge -uD world |
 |
|
I wanted to update my gentoo server last weekend
But it needed the new GCC and other things I don't really want to mess with since its a VPS server.
Do i run a risk of the system not booting if I let it run
sudo emerge -uD world?

if you don't want newer GCC your can mask it | Code: | | echo ">=sys-devel/gcc-4.0.0" /etc/portage/package.mask |

| If it is just GCC you dont have to worry at all. Even if you emerge it, it will not be used as long as you do not switch to the new compiler with ... |

IMHO, your system _may_ not run after a reboot. You are upgrading a lot of important packages there: baselayout, udev, etc. Before rebooting you must ensure that you update the config files correctly.
You need to be wary of cups too. There are some major config changes introduced by this new version of cups. |

hmmz...
I don't care for most of it just a few things I'd like to keep up to date on the production server...
So what packages should i mask as mentioned above?
The stuff I care for is apache, mysql, openssl, openssh, links, ... not the udev, kernel, gcc,...

Then why do you want to update the whole of world? Just update the packages you really want/need to update.
This script can help you to trim down your emerge list. |

| Of the list you posted, udev and baselayout are the only ones that I would worry about. |

because they seem to want to compile anyway I run:
sudo emerge -uD openssh --ask

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

| You can then do the emerge without the "D". If the package you want to emerge really requires a more recent package as a dependency, then it will pull it in automatically,- as in the second case where it has automatically pulled in a higher version of linux-headers. |
