Updating The System [Solved]

[pacman]

hi ,

i have also a problem if i want to update my system :

Calculating dependencies... done!

!!! All ebuilds that could satisfy ">=sys-fs/udev-169" have been masked.
!!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request:
- sys-fs/udev-9999::gentoo (masked by: package.mask, missing keyword)
/etc/portage/package.mask:
# udevadm settle bug on LiveCD boot
# reported upstream...

- sys-fs/udev-171-r1::gentoo (masked by: package.mask)

(dependency required by "net-wireless/bluez-4.94-r1" [ebuild])
(dependency required by "media-video/totem-2.32.0-r2[bluetooth]" [ebuild])
(dependency required by "@selected" [set])
(dependency required by "@world" [argument])
For more information, see the MASKED PACKAGES section in the emerge
man page or refer to the Gentoo Handbook.


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

version of sabayon is :

uname -a :
Linux station 2.6.39-sabayon #1 SMP Wed Jun 15 22:52:37 UTC 2011 i686 Intel(R) Core(TM) Duo CPU T2350 @ 1.86GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux

what i need to do to achieve my update , cause i don t want to break something .

THX

all right , i did my update like this :

sudo emerge --update --newuse --deep --with-bdeps=y @world

now the update is running , i add this

=sys-fs/udev-9999
=sys-fs/udev-171-r1

to package.unmask , now it seems rolling , but 389 update to check .

what do you think ?
