Re: [gentoo-user] Re: Gnome 3.2.2 Block
Well I now have it all completely working and dumped my findings here: http://en.gentoo-wiki.com/wiki/HOWTO_Gnome_3 Hopefully it helps the next person coming to Gnome 3 from a fresh install.

I stopped using Gentoo back before slots became common, so maybe I'm missing something as far as that goes. jbdubbspc jbdubbs # emerge -pv =gnome-base/gnome-3.2.1 These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies... done! [blocks b ] gnome-base/gdm-2.91.94 (gnome-base/gdm-2.91.94 is blocking gnome-base/gnome-control-center-3.2.2) [blocks B ] media-libs/clutter-1.7 (media-libs/clutter-1.7 is blocking media-libs/cogl-1.8.2) [blocks B ] dev-python/pygobject-2.28.6-r50:2[introspection] (dev-python/pygobject-2.28.6-r50:2[introspection] is blocking dev-python/pygobject-3.0.2) Notice that gdm is blocked with a 'b' and the other two with a 'B'. That means that portage is smart enough to fix the gdm conflict, but you must fix the other two yourself. I've found that the quickest fix for the 'B' blockers is just to remove them with emerge -C. So far I've not had any problems with that approach.
