[gentoo-user] [OT] KDE password dialogs stopped working
Hi all, just wanted to know wether anbody has encountered this: Nearly all KDE password dialogs (except screensaver and kdm) have stopped working. Neither kwallet nor kmail/kontact or kopete password dialogs work. I can enter login data, but the "OK" button doesn't react on klicks, only "Cancel" works. I suspect that it has something to do with recent QT update to 4.5.3, but I'm not sure. Has anybody else seen this? Bye... Dirk signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature

No, the ebuilds in question are (among others) dev-python/nevow and dev-python/ipython, from main portage tree.

Erm, I think whole point of "metadata-transfer" is to get the raw metadata and not to use pre-generated cache, am I wrong here? Furthermore, I don't sync the machine (actually several machines) in question via rsync, but use "emerge --sync" ability to pull PORTDIR from a git repository, which doesn't contain any caches, since machines that pull from there can have different overlays plugged in.

[gentoo-user] Migration to baselayout2 / openrc
Hi, for this weekend I planned to migrate to baselayout 2 finally. On gentoo web I found this: 2. Migration to OpenRC Migration to OpenRC is fairly straightforward; it will be pulled in as part of your regular upgrade process by your package manager. I tried to check this (emerge -pv openrc) and found: !!! All ebuilds that could satisfy "sys-apps/openrc" have been masked. !!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request: - sys-apps/openrc- (masked by: missing keyword) - sys-apps/openrc-0.5.1 (masked by: ~x86 keyword) - sys-apps/openrc-0.4.3-r4 (masked by: ~x86 keyword) - sys-apps/openrc-0.4.3-r3 (masked by: ~x86 keyword) - sys-apps/openrc-0.4.3-r2 (masked by: ~x86 keyword) - sys-apps/openrc-0.4.3-r1 (masked by: ~x86 keyword) - sys-apps/openrc-0.4.2 (masked by: ~x86 keyword) - sys-apps/openrc-0.4.1-r1 (masked by: ~x86 keyword) Especially "masked by: missing keyword" let me doubt whether or not it is sane to migrate How to proceed here ?

Many users who populate this list have unmasked it and emerged it without a problem. I am still holding onto the stable path and won't be upgrading as yet - perhaps because the benefits of doing so are not earth shattering, plus I'll have to learn new invocations to update my systems.

I'd suggest to delay the update 'till it hits stable.
"Stable" and "testing" are different branches, after all, and if you
mix them, results should be pretty much unpredictable, since both are
tested as-is.
So any package in your ("stable") branch will have baselayout-1
compatible script running with openrc and baselayout-2 scripts, which
are _known_ to be incompatible in some cases.
Of course, hitting "stable" branch should mean that package spent some
time in "testing" and init-script has been modified to be compatible
with both branches, but still I doubt that the overal result should be
more stable than "testing" branch, since no-one has really tested your
particular package mix.

Right, it should tell you that it started without any major problems - also have a look at your logs to check for any error messages while your starting it.

I'm just guessing here, but I'm thinking that deleting only the alsa modules may not be good enough. I'd try deleting all of the modules and recompile/reinstall them.

It belongs to pygoboject. totem[python] depends on gst-python which depends on pygobject. I have no idea why it wouldn't be there... ... actually I lied: # eselect python show # find /usr/lib/python* -type f -name codegen.py

The first thing is that you have packages installed against multiple versions of python. The usuall thing after a python slot-upgrade is to run python-updater and, when successful, remove the older python. Having said that, your system python is python 2.5, but pygobject is installed against python 2.6. You can't have that. System packages have to be installed against the same python slot.

I wasn't sure which package it belonged to. I had forgot about portage-utils. Still a good command for someone to look into tho. Dale :-) :-)
