On a recently intstalled 2004.3 from stage2. I just ran an --update portage as emerge was encouraging me to do. Somehow with that and other installations and removal I've done in the last 2 days. I've arrived at sort of catch 22.
I'm told some packages are blocking an --update world. When I check it out I see: [blocks B ] <x11-base/xorg-x11-6.8.0-r4 (is blocking x11-base/opengl-update-2.1.1-r1) opengl-update is not installed. at least according to qpkg -I. And because when I saw the message I thought I could move on by uninstalling it. But the --update still fails. So, I thought I could just dodge it and update some of the other stuff, but other packages are also being blocked by this situation. As a very new user... I'm not sure what to do about this Any recommendations? -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
