[SOLVED] Kde emerge trouble

Adol · 04-26-2011, 07:43 PM

Hello,

I have successfully installed Kde before with no problems but have recently went to OpenSuse and now back to Gentoo(I like it more) but can't get Kde to emerge.

I'm getting stuck at media-libs/ponon-4.4.2

The specific snippet of code:

I would try and unmask media-libs/phonon-4.5.0. It should be marked as stable soon.

I think my problems are bigger.

Now I tried to emerge xorg-server again and got an error:

died running emake, base_src_make

I dont know what happend but something is very wrong.

ok

so now I cant emerge:

ati-drivers
xorge
phonon

I think there may be something wrong with my base system but dont know where to start looking.

I have never emerged world. Ill try that next.

my next tries will be:

1. emerge world
2. check /usr/local directory for something that may be conflicting.
3. remerge perl

Hopefuly something will get the job done.

Also, I think I had a clock skew when I installed my base system. Its fixed now but could that be causing my problems?

andrewthomas · 04-26-2011, 11:36 PM

I wasn't saying that that will solve the problem, because if you haven't updated your system in a long time then you are going to run into problems.

Code:

emerge --sync && emerge -avuDN world

How long ago did you do your initial installation?

Adol · 04-26-2011, 11:45 PM

I finished the install about 1 week ago.

Could a clock skew durring the initial install be doing this?

No.

post the output of

Code:

emerge --info

and pastebin your

/var/log/emerge.log

What is the method to do that from the command line?

I dont know how to highlight or copy the text from command line.

If you haven't even emerged X and a desktop environment then you may be better off starting over, making sure to follow the handbook.

http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/

As for your question, you could just pipe the command to a file and copy that over to a USB stick.

Code:

emerge --info > file1

cat /var/log/emerge.log > file2

Actualy thats a good idea.

I'll start again and if I still have the same problems I'll post back with all the info.

It may be something I missed with my base system install.

Thank you for all the help.

Everything is working now.

There were some wrong make flags in my /etc/make.conf.

After I reinstalled I had similair problems then reverted my make.conf back to a simple state and everything worked.

Thank you for all the help.

You're welcome.

Glad to be of help.
