• [gentoo-user] KDE upgrade dependency problem

    From Jack@21:1/5 to All on Sat Dec 11 02:10:01 2021
    Good evening all, calling on the accumulated wisdom here.

    kde-frameworks 5.88 has been marked stable, but my upgrade is blocked
    because kwin (5.22.5 is stable, 5.23.4 is still marked testing) is
    somehow stuck on kde-frameworks/kglobalaccel-5.85.

    The line from portage is:
    (kde-frameworks/kglobalaccel-5.85.0-r1:5/5.85::gentoo, installed) USE="-debug -doc -nls -test" ABI_X86="(64)" pulled in by
    >=kde-frameworks/kglobalaccel-5.82.0:5/5.85= required by (kde-plasma/kwin-5.22.5:5/5::gentoo, installed) USE="caps handbook
    plasma -accessibility -debug -gles2-only -multimedia -screencast -test" ABI_X86="(64)"

    The actual line in the kwin ebuild is
    >=kde-frameworks/kglobalaccel-${KFMIN}:5=
    so I'm assuming that trailing "=" is the culprit, although I don't
    really follow the syntax.

    Is there any easy way around this, or does it just mean I can't upgrade
    any of kde-frameworks from 5.85 to 5.88 until kde-plasma 5.24.something
    is marked stable or I unmask it? I'm not in any great rush, but it
    means emerge @world always fails, and I've got to individually pick out
    those packages I CAN upgrade.

    Feels like there should be more output that would explain this,
    nothing in this output claims that this dependency would not be
    satisfied by the upgrade. Please post more if you can.

    Cheers,
    Arve

    I think I run into a problem with this a while back.  I run unstable
    with KDE.  I think it was a USE flag that needed changing to fix it but
    I can't recall what I had to change.  I don't have notes.  May want to
    look at the output just in case you are hitting the same thing and it
    isn't obvious.

    The best thing, post the entire output including the command itself. 
    If, like me, you have defaults set in make.conf, you may need to post
    them too.  On occasion, I copy it from emerge.log since it records all options, from command line as well as make.conf settings.

    depends on a matching upgrade to kde-plasma to version 5.23.4.
    Frameworks has been marked stable, but plasma has not yet :-(

    See these bugs:

    - https://bugs.gentoo.org/816042 "KDE Frameworks 5.88 stabilisation"
    which has a status of IN_PROGRESS

    - https://bugs.gentoo.org/826898 "KDE Plasma 5.23.4 stabilisation"
    which has a status of CONFIRMED

    So I think we are just going to have to wait for kde-plasma to be
    marked stable.

    Frameworks has been marked stable, but plasma has not yet :-(

    See these bugs:

    - https://bugs.gentoo.org/826898 "KDE Plasma 5.23.4 stabilisation"
    which has a status of CONFIRMED

    So I think we are just going to have to wait for kde-plasma to be
    marked stable.
    I suppose the frameworks stabilization is still "in progress" because
    not all arch's are stable, but amd64 is, which is the only one I need.
    The plasma stabilization did say it was dependent on the frameworks
    updates, but it doesn't say anything about why the older plasma (kwin
    in particular) seems to be preventing the frameworks update.

    Anyway, I decided dto go ahead and accept the testing plasma packages.
    I initially put "=kde-plasma/*-5.23* ~amd64" into my packages.accept
    file. eix showed (~) for kwin, but emerge complained about that syntax
    and didn't accept it. I ended up with "kde-plasma/* ~amd64". I don't
    know why the other syntax wasn't ok with portage, but as soon as that
    second bug does get settled, I can remove that line, so I'm not too
    worried about it being over inclusive.

    A bug has been opened for this problem https://bugs.gentoo.org/828963.
    It suggested emerging with --backtrack=200. That solved the problem for
    me.
