Hello, Gentoo. My current rig is working well (hence the lack of posts to the list from me), but The time is coming up for me to buy a new PC, the current one being around 7 years old. It's served me well for that time, but nothing lasts forever. Also, it would be nice to be able to build

Hi, What it did, it caused a package to fail that the others depended on.  Once it failed, the others failed as well.  I did a search on the forum and found one thread that had the problem.  I do wish people would use better topic tittles than 'my emerge failed' or oh my upgrade stopped' or some

Re: [gentoo-user] frei0r-plugins opencv ffmpeg Error: circular dependencies

Hi Dale, CFLAGS can't have an effect on dependencies. It is passed to make; emerge doesn't use it. Emerge does use CPU_FLAGS_*, but I don't know if those flags are used for any conditional dependencies. Regards, Waldo On Mon, Apr 29, 2024, 07:07 Dale wrote: > Dale wrote: > > Howdy, > > > >

Howdy, I'm installing Gentoo on another old box.  To be consistent I like to use cgdisk, GPT I think it is called, to partition all my drives, regardless of size.  Thing is, Grub works differently with GPT than it does with the old DOS or whatever it is called, like fdisk does in the old days.  I
