Hey all,

I installed Gentoo 2006.1.

I ran either:

emerge-webrsync // because I can't rsync through my company's firewall

or

emerge --update --deep world ... it revealed that I need portage needed
updating ...

so I:

emerge portage ...

I also installed mysql, php, apache and mediawiki. Mediawiki required me to
set pcre mysql and session in my USE ... I only need to add mysql the other
2 were already there. After installing that software I wanted to update my
system, so I ran

emerge --update --deep --newuse world

... here's the info ...

Error: the sys-apps/coldplug package conflicts with another package;
        the two packages cannot be installed on the same system together.
        ...

I then did ...

emerge --pretend --update --deep --newuse world > output_file

followed by:

grep blocks output_file

[blocks B     ] sys-apps/coldplug (is blocking sys-fs/udev-103)

I can't emerge: sys-fs/udev-103 or udev-103 b/c that's not a valid package
atom ...

What do I need to do to resolve this?

This installation is for a VM that I'm preparing for use at work. Currently
I've got a standalone machine that this will be replacing ... that machine
is running 2006.0. I've not tried to update it yet, and wanted to wait until
I've migrated my mediawiki install from that 2006.0 machine to the new
machine.

Thanks,

Shawn
