[gentoo-user] perl update gone wrong
A remote system I manage has a problem with perl. Hasn't been updated in a while. I'm finding references to similar problems, but can't figure this out. I was updating portage, which wanted to update perl to 5.16.3, and now perl seems to be broken. perl-cleaner -p --reallyall produces: !!! Multiple package instances within a single package slot have been pulled !!! into the dependency graph, resulting in a slot conflict: dev-lang/perl:0 (dev-lang/perl-5.16.2-r1::gentoo, installed) pulled in by =dev-lang/perl-5.16 required by (perl-core/Digest-MD5-2.520.0::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge) =dev-lang/perl-5.16* required by (virtual/perl-File-Temp-0.220.0-r2::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge) (and 64 more with the same problems) (dev-lang/perl-5.12.4-r2::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge) pulled in by ~dev-lang/perl-5.12.4 required by (virtual/perl-Digest-SHA-5.47::gentoo, installed) (and 1 more with the same problem) (dev-lang/perl-5.14.2::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge) pulled in by =dev-lang/perl-5.14* required by (virtual/perl-digest-base-1.160.0-r1::gentoo, installed) (and 1 more with the same problem) 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. You may want to try a larger value of the --backtrack option, such as --backtrack=30, in order to see if that will solve this conflict automatically. For more information, see MASKED PACKAGES section in the emerge man page or refer to the Gentoo Handbook. The following mask changes are necessary to proceed: (see package.unmask in the portage(5) man page for more details) # required by virtual/perl-digest-base-1.160.0-r1 # required by perl-core/Digest-MD5-2.520.0 # required by virtual/perl-Digest-MD5-2.520.0 # required by dev-perl/Digest-HMAC-1.30.0 # required by dev-perl/Authen-SASL-2.160.0 # required by dev-vcs/git-1.8.3.2-r1[perl] # required by dev-vcs/git:0 (argument) # /usr/portage/profiles/package.mask: # Torsten Veller t...@gentoo.org (18 Jun 2011) # Mask perl-5.14. See tracker bug #356171 =dev-lang/perl-5.14.2 NOTE: The --autounmask-keep-masks option will prevent emerge from creating package.unmask or ** keyword changes. * perl-cleaner is stopping here: * Fix the problem and start perl-cleaner again. Any ideas?

Messed around, downgraded perl to 5.16.2, then just tried updating virtual/perl-digest-base, which pulled in perl 5.16.3, and now all seems to be well (perl-cleaner --reallyall is running as we speak, installing a whole boatload of crap - mostly virtual/perl-whatever)...
Re: [gentoo-user] Perl update = emerge cannot create executables
After fixinf fs errors with fsck emerge stopped working so i fixed with http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/portage/doc/manually-fixing-portage.xml Then downloaded a stage3, chrooted, compiled gcc, created a binpkg and emerged it on the broken system with emerge -K Now i'm rebuilding the whole system.

I can't say why you *suddenly* started getting problems, but it may indicate that there is some hardware problem which caused a fs corruption.

[gentoo-user] Perl update = emerge cannot create executables
Hi, yesterday i was updating some trivial packages when i noticed
emerge got broken after updating perl (from [b]perl-5.12.2-r1[/b] to
[b]perl-5.12.2-r2[/b]). I've also took a look at /etc/make.conf but i
think i did not modify it and after checking it it seems to have no
errors. Right not every emerge fails, i think the problem is perl is
failing to find need headers or whatever.
GCC and system libraries seems ok:
$gcc-config -l
[1] x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-4.4.4 *
$gcc-config -c
x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-4.4.4
$binutils-config -l
[1] x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-2.20.1 *
$binutils-config -c
x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-2.20.1
GCC is working fine:
$cat /tmp/test.c
#include stdio.h
void main(){
printf(Hello world\n);
}
$gcc test.c -o test ./test
Hello world
$cat /etc/make.conf

Thanks for the answers :) Yes, i've run al of the above commands except the oen with MAKEOPTS=-j1 Also re-emerge extutils-depends and extutils-pkgconfig didn't helped, but is strange that they emerged fine.

Correct. Your configure scripts cannot find header directories - nothing to do with perl at all. I assume the directories and their contents do still exist? If not, do you have buildpkg's of packages in @system? I'd start by unpacking the entire toolchain, something is missing or corrupt. -- alan dot mckinnon at gmail dot com

[gentoo-user] perl update
Hi Is it possible to increase the verbosity of the emerge.log, specifically I am intersted in capturing any messages that occour during an emerge world, for example if 10 packages get updated and one of them was python then I would need to run python-updater But if that occurred during a long list of packages I would not see that message unless it happened to be the last on the list, or at least I think that is how the system works [I may be in error here] other examples that I have seen or not seen as the case may be would be lmsensors and qemu both of which compile happily but require kernel options for full functionality, I did not see these messages till I recompiled and/or went for a browse in the ebuild. My thoughts came about as I was writing the following mail which I answered myself as I was writing away [how often the way :) ] cheers stu ps. Directing the output of emerge output in its whole is not what I am looking for, I am looking for an emerge option if possible and if not then I can have a try at a script of some sort to do it later. ## I have just done my daily emerge and noticed that perl has moved up from 5.8.6 to 5.8.7 does this require me to use the perl-cleaner script prehaps in the way that python-updater is used when python makes a change? Had a look at the ebuild and it seems that I dont since I have only 1 version installed. # -- There are 10 types of people in this world: those who understand binary, those who don't --Unknown -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

You can have the elog, ewarn, einfo etc. message saved to a file, mailed to you or passed to a custom program. See the PORTAGE_ELOG* settings in /etc/make.conf.example. For earlier versions of portage, you'll have to set PORT_LOGDIR, and create the directory. Then all emerge output is logged to here, two files per emerge. One file contains all the compiler output et al, the other contains the warnings and messages you want. -- Neil Bothwick Ultimate memory manager; Windows, it manages to use it all.. signature.asc Description: PGP signature

As long as portage-2.1_pre3-r1 is unstable you can use the portlog-info script to retrieve these informations. For example # portlog-info -s 1h -i prints out the einfos of the last hour.
