The whole point of calculating dependencies with Gentoo is so you only get what you need. With other distros such as Redhat, Suse, Mandrake there is no such mechanism so you have to put everything on (full install or whatever) just to make sure you do not have to go back to the cds. What exactly do you need the whole directory for? -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

I'm not sure why you try to accomplish it by telling your computer to try and force installation of both gnome 1.4 (gnome-core,gnome-libs) and gnome-2.2(gnome-terminal, gnome-session, gnome-desktop, libgnome* ) Frankly, there is no problem to overcome here. Just decide on what version you want installed, you cannot get both. (libraries coexist, binaries overwrite) you refer to gnome-base/* as to being added, yes... emerge gnome, will give you the latest metapackage, the * refers to the fact that its a lot of small packages that make up gnome, instead of "one big lump" //Spider irate developer -- begin .signature This is a .signature virus!

The second item (gnome-base/*) made me believe that > there is a newer version that I should upgrade to. I haven't gotten heavily into gnome yet. However, you can do pretty much what you want with a couple of commands. I did as follows: cd /usr/portage/gnome/ grep gnome-session `find * | grep ebuild` From that output, I found that the package gnome-core is the package that conflicts with gnome-terminal. Checking the ebuild, I found that it conflicts with gnome-session and gnome-desktop as well. The reason is that gnome-core is gnome v1. Therefore, you could do the following: ls /usr/portage/gnome/ > /tmp/gnome-packages # edit the file and remove gnome-core manually nano -w /tmp/gnome-packages for i in `cat /tmp/gnome-packages`; do emerge -n $i; done Adding the -n flag, as previously noted by sjors(?), will ensure that only older or non-existant versions are installed/upgraded. If it reports any other conflicts, just do as I did above and look for a line that says "path/to/package.ebuild: !conflicting/package" Hope this helps!
