I'm trying to roll back xorg-server, and I keep getting stuck: camille log # emerge -pvuD world These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies... done! !!! All ebuilds that could satisfy ">=x11-base/xorg-server-1.5" have been masked. !!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request: - x11-base/xorg-server-1.5.3-r5 (masked by: package.mask) /etc/portage/package.mask: # ######## xorg-server masking ######### - x11-base/xorg-server-1.5.3-r4 (masked by: package.mask, ~x86 keyword) For more information, see the MASKED PACKAGES section in the emerge man page or refer to the Gentoo Handbook. (dependency required by "x11-drivers/xf86-video-intel-2.6.3-r1" [ebuild]) (dependency required by "x11-base/xorg-server-1.3.0.0-r6" [installed]) (dependency required by "x11-libs/gtk+-2.14.7-r2" [installed]) (dependency required by "app-text/ghostscript-gpl-8.64-r2" [installed]) (dependency required by "kde-base/kdegraphics-3.5.9" [installed]) (dependency required by "kde-base/kde-3.5.9" [installed]) (dependency required by "world" [argument]) How do I get passed (sp?) this?
