Just bumped everything up to FF 3.0.3. One snag on desktop: needed to add [xulrunner] USE flag to [/etc/make.conf]. Check out how fast I got a response to my comment on gentoo’s bugzilla! Sweet. aifol.
Had to do some cleanup to get nightly emerge working again. I’m looking to see if FF 3.0.2 is marked stable yet (it was just pushed to my Windoze boxxen today).
Silly qca kept simultaneously requiring and blocking the 1.0-r2 version, add this to [package.keywords] to fix it:
# MDM Workaround for this qca bug:
# http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=238000
# "the proper workaround is the 'local' stabilisation:"
=app-crypt/qca-1.0-r3
Also, WordPress was blocking with “no packages available”. Gentoo has switched (to my knowledge) so that hard-masked packages have to be unmasked in both package.keywords and package.unmask, added to both and we’re getting the latest version again. Happy day.
emerge_all_minprompts
eix is having brainfarts…
emerge -Davu eix
eix-sync
mo betta…
added to [package.keywords]:
# Unmask FF3, and deps...
www-client/mozilla-firefox
dev-libs/nspr
dev-libs/nss
net-libs/xulrunner
clean up blocks, and let er rip:
emerge --unmerge app-crypt/qca
emerge -Davu world
72 packages (65 upgrades, 6 new, 1 in new slot)
let’s do it! with the new X2 and 2GB memory, should be FAST… :>
emerge_all_minprompts
aifol.
Took the AMD X2 cpu and 1GB from poor dead mediacenter and dropped it into my desktop. Instant upgrade, ZERO problems. Now THAT is fun.
Time to order mediacenter hardware. Ebony is dragging me to Sam’s Club to check out a $1000 52″ 1080p HDTV, the bar may be rising soon…
# MDM Stupid swfdex uses BOTH alsa and oss flags by default (and therefore conflicts). Dumbass! Added [-oss].
