Hello,
I'm rebuilding my myth box from scratch with gentoo. I've got up to
having mysql and qt installed. I've even emerged mythdvd, mythgallery,
mythgame, mythmusic, mythnews, mythvideo, mythweather, and
mythtv-themes. But...
helium portage # emerge -pv mythtv
These are the packages that I would merge, in order:
Calculating dependencies ...done!
[blocks B ] media-tv/mythfrontend (from pkg media-tv/mythtv-0.13-r1)
[ebuild R ] media-tv/mythtv-0.13-r1 -alsa -lcd +lirc -nvidia
helium portage # emerge -pv mythfrontend
These are the packages that I would merge, in order:
Calculating dependencies ...done!
[blocks B ] media-tv/mythtv (from pkg media-tv/mythfrontend-0.13)
[ebuild R ] media-tv/mythfrontend-0.13 -alsa -lcd +lirc -nvidia
So it seems to me that neither is installed yet they both are blocking
on the other. My understanding from the Gentoo Handbook is that 'X
blocks on Y' means unmerge Y before you can emerge X, but in this case Y
was never emerged.
(Yes, I've done a recent emerge sync.) Any experienced gentoo users know
what's going on?
