Hi. I am having problems installing zfs-kmod on my new kernel
5.4.69. Originally I got this:
!!! Multiple package instances within a single package slot have been
pulled
!!! into the dependency graph, resulting in a slot conflict:
sys-fs/zfs-kmod:0
(sys-fs/zfs-kmod-2.0.0_rc3:0/0::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge)
USE="rootfs -custom-cflags -debug" ABI_X86="(64)" pulled in by
(no parents that aren't satisfied by other packages in this
slot)
(sys-fs/zfs-kmod-2.0.0_rc1:0/0::gentoo, installed) USE="rootfs
-custom-cflags -debug" ABI_X86="(64)" pulled in by
~sys-fs/zfs-kmod-2.0.0_rc1 required by
(sys-fs/zfs-2.0.0_rc1-r1:0/0::gentoo, installed) USE="nls pam rootfs
(split-usr) -custom-cflags -debug (-kernel-builtin) -libressl
-minimal -python (-static-libs) -test-suite" ABI_X86="(64)"
PYTHON_TARGETS="python3_7 -python3_6 -python3_8"
^ ^^^^^^^^^
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.
Then I masked off the -rc3 version thinking that would help and I got
this:
!!! Multiple package instances within a single package slot have been
pulled
!!! into the dependency graph, resulting in a slot conflict:
sys-fs/zfs-kmod:0
(sys-fs/zfs-kmod-0.8.5:0/0::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge)

So, how do I fix -- I was thinking of uninstalling zfs-kmod, but was
afraid it would delete from my running kernel (4.19.144) or some other
fcatastrophe, so I thought I'd ask here first.
I am on the zfs-discuss list and a few months ago they were talking
about a necessary patch to install in 5.4 kernels because of not
exporting some symhbols as well.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
