Hi, I have a problem here with vnc server and two different versions of xorg-server:

Code:
# emerge -Du --newuse world
Calculating world dependencies -
!!! Multiple versions within a single package slot have been
!!! pulled into the dependency graph:

('installed', '/', 'x11-base/xorg-server-1.3.0.0-r2', 'nomerge') pulled in by
  ('installed', '/', 'net-misc/vnc-4.1.2-r4', 'nomerge')

('ebuild', '/', 'x11-base/xorg-server-1.4-r2', 'merge') pulled in by
  ('installed', '/', 'x11-base/xorg-x11-7.3', 'nomerge')
  ('installed', '/', 'media-video/nvidia-settings-1.0.20070621', 'nomerge')
  ('installed', '/', 'x11-drivers/xf86-input-evdev-1.1.5-r2', 'nomerge')
  ('installed', '/', 'x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-100.14.19', 'nomerge')
  ('ebuild', '/', 'x11-drivers/xf86-input-keyboard-1.2.2', 'merge')
  ('installed', '/', 'x11-drivers/xf86-input-mouse-1.2.2-r1', 'nomerge')

It may be possible to solve this problem by using package.mask to
prevent one of those packages from being selected. However, it is also
possible that conflicting dependencies exist such that they are
impossible to satisfy simultaneously. If such a conflict exists in the
dependencies of two different packages, then those packages can not be
installed simultaneously.

For more information, see MASKED PACKAGES section in the emerge man page
or refer to the Gentoo Handbook.

!!! Depgraph creation failed.


It seems the package vnc needs xorg-server version 1.3, while the ~amd64 says 1.4?

Would you suggest to put the 1.4 into package.mask? I guess I need to find a suitable xorg-x11 then for 1.3?

The ebuild of xorg-x11-7.2 works with the 1.2 version of xorg-server:
Code:
RDEPEND="${RDEPEND}
        >=x11-base/xorg-server-1.2"


I'll try to downgrade and put the xorg-x11-7.3 into package.mask

//edit: after putting xorg-x11-7.3 and the xorg-server-1.4 into package.mask I got the following:
Code:
Calculating world dependencies -
!!! Multiple versions within a single package slot have been
!!! pulled into the dependency graph:

('installed', '/', 'x11-libs/libXrender-0.9.2', 'nomerge') pulled in by
  ('installed', '/', 'x11-base/xorg-server-1.3.0.0-r2', 'nomerge')

('ebuild', '/', 'x11-libs/libXrender-0.9.4', 'merge') pulled in by
  ('installed', '/', 'x11-libs/libXcursor-1.1.9', 'nomerge')
  ('installed', '/', 'x11-libs/libXft-2.1.12', 'nomerge')
  ('installed', '/', 'x11-libs/pango-1.18.3', 'nomerge')
  ('installed', '/', 'dev-dotnet/libgdiplus-1.2.5-r1', 'nomerge')
  ('installed', '/', 'x11-libs/gtk+-2.12.1', 'nomerge')
  ('installed', '/', 'x11-libs/libXrandr-1.2.2', 'nomerge')
  ('installed', '/', 'x11-libs/cairo-1.4.10', 'nomerge')


This seems to be a serious problem to get vnc installed with xorg...

//edit: I tried to downgrade both or each of them and there are always problems. seems vnc cannot get properly installed anymore on ~amd64 build. Any ebuild-expert here who can help?

//edit: can someone move this to portage & programming :lol: I'll try to install tightvnc instead

//edit: just unmerged the vnc then emerged tightvnc afterward emerge -Du --newuse world and then emerge --depclean then revdep-rebuild.
No problems anymore, this problem was vnc (realvnc) related!
