Hi,
   This is mostly an experiment but the experiment is going well to
this point. This machine began life as an XBox yesterday. I installed
GentooX (not gentoo-xbox for reasons beyond the rhelm of this thread)
and then went about emerging portage and seeing if I could convert the
machine to a more or less standard system. I've done emerge system
successfully to get it updated.The XBox boots fine. So far so good.

However when I attempt to emerge X I get this:


Pro root # emerge xorg-x11
Calculating dependencies ...done!
>>> emerge (1 of 1) x11-base/xorg-x11-4.3.0-r6 to /
!!! Files listed in the manifest do not exist!
files/digest-xfree-4.3.0-r7
files/digest-xfree-4.3.0-r8
Pro root #

I'm asking for xorg-x11 but getting pointers to things about xfree.
Why is that and what might I try to move beyond this?

I thought that maybe this was a virtuals problem and something might
be left over from the GentooX install. I've changed the profile to
2005.0 and reemerged everything up to this point and it's been fine.
Did I miss something by going through the virtual files in this order?

/etc/portage/profile/virtuals (Doesn't exist)
/usr/portage/profiles/default-linux/x86/2005.0/virtuals (Doesn't exist)
/usr/portage/profiles/default-linux/x86/virtuals
/usr/portage/profiles/default-linux/virtuals
/usr/portage/profiles/base/virtuals

There is an /usr/portage/profiles/default-linux/x86/xbox/virtuals file
but it doesn't have an entry for xfree-x11 either.

Where is this coming from?

Note that the version number seems very old or incorrect also.

Thanks in advance,
Mark
