Cant install from a overlay [Solved]

[giannis12a]

Hallo to all,
i want the cwp ( customizable weather ) plasmoid and it is in overlay kde. I do emerge --sync , eix-update ,layman -S and all its ok. The package is masked by keywords.

Code: Select all

pleiades giannis # eix customizable weather
* kde-misc/customizable-weather [1]
     Available versions:  (~)0.9.17 {debug}
     Homepage:            http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php/Customizable+Weather+Plasmoid?content=98925
     Description:         KDE4 weather plasmoid. It aims to be highly customizable, but a little harder to setup.

[1] "kde" layman/kde


after in konsole to unmask the package

Code: Select all

echo "=kde-misc/customizable-weather-0.9.17" >> /etc/portage/package.keywords

and the end

Code: Select all

pleiades giannis # emerge -av =kde-misc/customizable-weather-0.9.17

 * IMPORTANT: 3 news items need reading for repository 'gentoo'.
 * Use eselect news to read news items.


These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies... done!

emerge: there are no ebuilds to satisfy "=kde-misc/customizable-weather-0.9.17".


 * IMPORTANT: 3 news items need reading for repository 'gentoo'.
 * Use eselect news to read news items.

Hi,
For that problem take a look to these threads:

Then you've done something incorrectly.

Code: Select all

# emerge --sync
# emerge -1v portage <---- DO NOT DO THIS IF YOU USE ENTROPY
# layman -S
# eselect news read all

Code: Select all

For a long time the Java team required a 1.4 JDK to be
installed in order for old java ebuilds to work. All these
ebuilds are now gone from the main tree so the requirement
to have a 1.4 JDK installed has been lifted.

In order to remove things left over by the generation 1
setup please run java-check-environment and follow the
instructions.

If you want to remove 1.4 JDKs, you should use emerge --depclean.
Depending on what you have installed you might not need a
1.4 JDK any more. To see if you still need a 1.4 JDK use:

emerge -av --depclean virtual/jdk:1.4

If you don't need virtual/jdk:1.4 any more then you can remove the
individual JDKs. First get the list of installed JDKs with
eselect and then remove those that are not needed any longer with
depclean, for example:

eselect java-vm list
emerge -av --depclean sun-jdk:1.4

The Gentoo KDE Guide has been updated and now covers the two most
serious issues affecting KDE users:

1) masking of the kdeprefix USE flag for KDE 4 users and
2) the upgrade of KDE 3 and KOffice 1.6.3 due to stabilisation to KDE
3.5.10 and KOffice 1.6.3_p20090204 for users of monolithic ebuilds.

Please refer to the guide [0] to solve those issues.

The 5.1 series of MySQL is going to be unmasked at the same time as the release
of this news item. When upgrading from an older major version (including 5.0),
you will be required to rebuild everything linked to the libmysqlclient.so.15
and libmysqlclient_r.so.15.

You can do this by installing app-portage/gentoolkit and running:
# revdep-rebuild --library libmysqlclient.so.15
# revdep-rebuild --library libmysqlclient_r.so.15

If you use the Portage 2.2 series, you may also use:
# emerge @preserved-rebuild

The official upgrade documentation is available here:
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/upgrade.html

Note that existing databases may need converting as well, again including those
upgrading from 5.0 to 5.1. Details are in the update documentation.

nope

[giannis12a]

have you right. Done

[Fitzcarraldo]

Ianni, the reason you didn't see the advisory initially is because you had not 'synced' (synchronised) with the on-line Portage repositories. To keep up-to-date, roughly once a week you should do the following:

Code: Select all

# emerge --sync
# layman -S

The command "emerge --sync" synchronises your PC with the main Portage repositories; the command "layman -S" synchronises you PC with any repositories of overlays that you have specified previously (which, as installed from the LiveDVD, will only be the Sabayon overlay).

If you use Entropy then you should ignore any message that is displayed when you do the "emerge --sync" telling you to update portage.

If you haven't already done so, I recommend that you read the articles on Portage and Entropy in the SL Wiki (see the link at the top right of this page).

now is there no newer version anywhere??? I see 1.0.1 is out........
I installed this version 0.9.17 but at least for my area nothing works and I saw in 1.0.0 that weather.com has been fixed.
I tried weather.com and it didnt work
I tried accuweather and it didnt work
and no Ive tried myforecast.com with no luck

any help would be great.... thanks.

[splippity]

I actually got freemeteo.com to work but would still like a new version if we can......... Its a pretty nice lil app.

at least a few versions have gone by since this thing was added.....

[splippity]

I tell you what Im starting to think Im becoming a sabayon ninja....

anyway check out
http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=308631
it has an ebuild for the newer customizable weather if you want 1.0.1
Though all I did was rename the ebuild I had and redid the manifest.

Now Im sporting the new 1.0.1 and all of the other weather sites work fine now......

just figured I would point it out.
