Unable to emerge xorg, circular dependencies

malloc · 01-16-2013, 03:41 PM

I have followed the guide at http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/xorg-config.xml and arrived at the following problem when I try to emerge xorg-server:

Code:

 * IMPORTANT: config file '/etc/portage/package.use' needs updating.
 * See the CONFIGURATION FILES section of the emerge
 * man page to learn how to update config files.
Calculating dependencies... done!

 * Error: circular dependencies:

  (media-libs/mesa-9.0.1::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge) (buildtime)

It might be possible to break this cycle
by applying the following change:
- media-libs/mesa-9.0.1 (Change USE: -xorg)

Note that this change can be reverted, once the package has been installed.

!!! Multiple package instances within a single package slot have been pulled
!!! into the dependency graph, resulting in a slot conflict:

dev-lang/swig:0

  (dev-lang/swig-2.0.8::gentoo, installed) pulled in by
    >=dev-lang/swig-2.0.4-r1 required by (sys-libs/libsemanage-2.1.9::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge)
    (and 1 more with the same problem)

    (no parents that aren't satisfied by other packages in this slot)

    dev-libs/libxml2[python] required by (media-libs/mesa-9.0.1::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge)


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.

For more information, see MASKED PACKAGES section in the emerge man
page or refer to the Gentoo Handbook.

My /etc/portage/make.conf reads:

Code:

# built this stage.

# detailed example.

Why does my make.conf need updating? What is wrong? Before when I ran emerge xorg-server I got a few missing USE variables, which I have added in.

I'm not sure why this happened, but I recommend you emerge mesa with -xorg, then emerge xorg, then re-emerge mesa with +xorg. Stupid I know but maybe it will work for you.

Also, I noticed the message about your package.use file needing updating. Could you post it please?

Thanks, I've been compiling mesa for a while now and will complete the additional steps once that process if finished (this is a slow system).

My /etc/portage/package.use file contains:

Code:

x11-base/xorg-server udev

I was able to emerge mesa, but not able to emerge xorg-server after that (I emerged mesa with -xorg but removed the '-' when attempting to emerge xorg-server).

Errors I got when emerging xorg-server after having first emerged mesa are as follows:

A LOT of errors follow this.

Then eventually I get:

OK, this is making a bit more sense. The emerge errors all seem related to some selinux packages: setools and libsemanage not xorg. It looks like your first problem is related to setools needing swig version 1.3.40-r1 and libsemanage needing swig-2.0.8 (which you've already installed). I guess swig doesn't do slotting so this is a problem. Just to see if any problems in the source tree have been resolved, have you run emerge --sync recently and emerge -puND world?

1) maybe try the ~x86 or ~amd64 version of setools and see if it will accept your swig 2.0.8.
2) another option would be to see what packages depend on libsemanage and setools and see if you can get rid of one of them (thus removing the conflicting dependency on swig).
