Portage blocked by corruption [Solved]

[albfneto]

I see another post, in which was described that equo was blocked by corruption
I use Sabayon 3.5
I have a related problem. in my sabayon, but is is the PORTAGE that is blocked by
corruption.
when i want to install something with equo/entropy,
this works well, bu if i use portage, ]
i receive messages that packages masked by corruption, but only in portage.
Until now, i afraid to syncronize my entropy dir with the portage dir, with that command that used gentoosync...
I have a in mind that my "bad" portage, will broken my "good" entropy.
What is the manner to solve these portage problems. Also, sometimes, when i used portage/ emerge command, i receive messages od conflicting SLOTS.
When i may correct this.l?

which 3.5?

did u sync?

[albfneto]

Until now, i dont run the command

equo database gentoosync

Because i have in mind this command will syncronize my "working good" Entropy system, with my "no good working" Portage system....
Or not?
Also, another thing that is occurring:
frequentely,i do not found apackage in entropy or in portage..
exs. i do not found kuroo in portage,
neither i found, for ex. KDE 4 in Entropy...
This indicates that my portage and entropy repositories were both incomplete, no?, No syncronized...

You're misunderstanding a lot.
First, I'm pretty sure wolfden wondered if you did a

Code: Select all

emerge --sync

Second, equo database gentoosync tells equo of all the packages you've installed via portage, it has nothing to do with repositories. It won't break equo by using this command, but if you haven't installed anything via portage, there is no point in running it.

Lastly, KDE4 is in entropy, and it is masked.

So, have you run emerge --sync?

I think you need to spend some time reading our wiki and the gentoo handbook as you don't seem to understand how to operate the package managers

KDE 4.1 Final is not available yet viewtopic.php?f=53&t=14315

You also failed to answer the question as to what version of 3.5 you installed. If you want help, you have to answer the questions asked and give as much detail as possible. Making multiple posts in several threads isn't going to help. Stick to one thread and answer the questions. viewtopic.php?f=50&t=8518#p72605

yes do. i will see the wiki and the gentoo documents.
my sabayon 3.5 is the full DVD version , 64 bits.
Thanks.

Hi.
Problems solved after a sequence of updating and syncronization commands.
su and passw.
emerge --sync
emerge -va portage
emerge layman
layman -d sabayon
layman -a sabayon
layman -s sabayon
layman -S
emerge -va equo spritz
equo update
equo database gentoosync

Now, both Portage and Entropy works well.
