Emerge App Installation issue

[killaray]

im coming from Ubuntu, and their commands r fairly easy.. now i understand that u guys use emerge instead of the apt-get im used to... now ive used sabayon 1 time before and i installed an app just find, mind u it did take a mighty long time cause it seems like emerge installs everything from source.. anywho my issue is im trying to install amarok and it says it has a dependency that isnt met... so im tryin to install mysql which is the dependency and i get this error

this shows up once its basically done installing... anyone know how i could get this thing installed? or is there a command for emerge that it will automatically install all dependencies a package needs when i look it up?

emerge attempts to install dependencies as well.

Since you're coming from Ubuntu, maybe I suggest you check out entropy instead of trying portage? Entropy is a binary package manager much more like what Ubuntu uses.


(You won't need to install it, as it should already be installed)

seems like entropy and spritz are the same.. ive tried spritz and it also gives errors..

[killaray]

anyone have any ideas on how i can get this thing installed so i can install amarok?

[wolfden]

mysql comes preinstalled on SL 4

[killaray]

so wuts this mean?

Code: Select all

 sudo emerge -av amarokPassword:

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

Calculating dependencies... done!

emerge: there are no ebuilds built with USE flags to satisfy ">=dev-db/mysql-5.0[embedded,-minimal]".
!!! One of the following packages is required to complete your request:
- dev-db/mysql-5.0.72-r1 (Change USE: +embedded)
(dependency required by "media-sound/amarok-2.0" [ebuild])
(dependency required by "amarok" [argument])


[wolfden]

1. it means your mixing entropy and portage, which is not recommended

2. it tells you exactly what it means"

dev-db/mysql-5.0.72-r1 (Change USE: +embedded)

you need to rebuild mysql with the required change it is telling you
http://gentoo-portage.com/dev-db/mysql/USE#ptabs << see flags available

the deal is, if you are gonna use entropy, it's gonna ignore changes you do and revert it back unless you mask mysql in entropy.

do you understand portage? have you looked at the portage guide in the our wiki? If you are gonna be mixing package managers, be sure to get to know each one very good.

Otherwise to request a package rebuild in entropy use:

im so confused.. im lookin through spritz and apparently both packages have been installed already... im so confused...

Just found out the resolution to this from the IRC channel.

vi /etc/portage/package.use

add a line at the bottom like this: dev-db/mysql embedded

save your changes

emerge mysql (I actually did "emerge =dev-db/mysql-5.0.72-r1" but that may be unneccessary

emerge amarok.

All done!
