Default Strnage hpoj behaviour in portage

Whenever I run emerge update, I get the following;

tux stig # emerge -uDav world

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Calculating world dependencies
!!! Packages for the following atoms are either all
!!! masked or don't exist:
net-print/hpoj

...done!

Total size of downloads: 0 kB

Where is strange........hpoj is not listed in package.keywords.

I do have a HP-PSC 2110 scanner / printer.....

If you have set ACCEPT_KEYWORDS in your /etc/make.conf to a stable, the do
echo "net-print/hpoj ~x86" >> /etc/portage/package.keywords

if you have a powerpc machine
echo "net-print/hpoj ~ppc" >> /etc/portage/package.keywords

or if you have a 64bits amd
echo "net-print/hpoj ~amd64" >> /etc/portage/package.keywords

If you install an unstable package, then you need to add that one to the
package.keywords or else you will get this kind of troubles.

Sounds like either Cups or Sane is trying to pull it in as that printer
really needs hplip which is still in ~. If you want it. you need to add
this to /etc/portage/package.keywords net-print/hplip ~x86 or whatever the
arch is. This will then pull in the various files needed by either
cups/sane to get more effective usage from the unit.

Hi,

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. I emerge -C'd hpoj away, and
synced. Then looked ind /usr/portage/net-print, and did indeed find a hplip
folder. Then placed

net-print/hplip ~x86

in my package.keywords, and off I went with emerge -s hplip

But I get;


# emerge -s net-print/hplip
Searching...
[ Results for search key : net-print/hplip ]
[ Applications found : 0 ]

Why is that I wonder?

/Stig

Hey....thanks for input ! ;o)

I had to remove hpoj and hpijs(they blocked), and could then emerge the ~
hplip package......it is pulling in 5-6 dependencies as I type this.

I am now looking forward to testing my printer/scanner.

Stig, I've been following this thread as I use a PSC 1510 and read the same
message you mentioned in your first post. I have hpijs (1.7.1) and hpoj
(0.91-r3) installed. So, please keep posting your results here - you're
helping more people than you know. Thank you.

Seems they changed things a bit. You need to add the version onto the end.
EG: net-print/hplip-0.9.7-r3 ~arch in order to get it to install.

Well.....that didn't quite work. I needed to remove hpoj from the default
runlevel, and add hplip, like so;

rc-update del hpoj default
rc-update add hplip default
etc/init.d/hplip start
