Thanks Renat, I am still struggling to understand why mysql is being dragged in. It seems that x11-libs/qt-sql-4.5.2 is already installed with the sqlite flag: ================================= Installed versions: 4.5.2(4)(12:30:57 10/10/09)(iconv qt3support sqlite -debug -firebird -mysql -odbc -pch -postgres) ================================= I've added -mysql in /etc/portage/package.use for x11-libs/qt-sql but it makes no difference. Then I added mysql and all this mess comes up: ================================= # emerge -upDv world These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies... done! !!! Multiple package instances within a single package slot have been pulled !!! into the dependency graph, resulting in a slot conflict: x11-libs/qt-sql:4 ('ebuild', '/', 'x11-libs/qt-sql-4.5.2', 'merge') pulled in by >=x11-libs/qt-sql-4.5.0:4[mysql] required by ('ebuild', '/', 'app-office/akonadi-server-1.2.1', 'merge') ('installed', '/', 'x11-libs/qt-sql-4.5.2', 'nomerge') pulled in by >=x11-libs/qt-sql-4.5.1:4[qt3support] required by ('ebuild', '/', 'kde-base/kmix-4.3.1', 'merge') >=x11-libs/qt-sql-4.5.1:4[qt3support] required by ('ebuild', '/', 'kde-base/kontactinterfaces-4.3.1', 'merge') >=x11-libs/qt-sql-4.5.1:4[qt3support] required by ('ebuild', '/', 'kde-base/ kimagemapeditor-4.3.1', 'merge') (and 117 more) sys-auth/pambase:0 ('ebuild', '/', 'sys-auth/pambase-20090620.1-r1', 'merge') pulled in by sys-auth/pambase required by world sys-auth/pambase[consolekit] required by ('ebuild', '/', 'net-wireless/bluez-4.39-r2', 'merge') ('installed', '/', 'sys-auth/pambase-20090620.1-r1', 'nomerge') pulled in by sys-auth/pambase required by world >=sys-auth/pambase-20081028 required by ('installed', '/', 'net-misc/openssh-5.2_p1-r3', 'nomerge') >=sys-auth/pambase-20080219.1 required by ('installed', '/', 'sys-apps/shadow-4.1.2.2', 'nomerge') (and 1 more) 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. emerge: there are no ebuilds built with USE flags to satisfy ">=dev-python/PyQt4-4.5[dbus,sql,svg,webkit,X]". !!! One of the following packages is required to complete your request: - dev-python/PyQt4-4.5.4-r4 (Change USE: +sql +webkit) (dependency required by "kde-base/pykde4-4.3.1" [ebuild]) (dependency required by "kde-base/plasma-workspace-4.3.1" [ebuild]) (dependency required by "kde-base/kdebase-meta-4.3.1" [ebuild]) (dependency required by "world" [argument]) ================================= It seems to me that it may be easier to just unmerge krfb and forget about it, but there must be a more elegant solution to this? -- Regards, Mick
