Hey guys,
The gentoo is a fresh install from the LiveCd 2007.0
I've been following the wiki sequentially so far and I'm at the point where I have the install the perl modules.
The following step is where the error occurs:
_________________________________________________
localhost ~ # emerge aspell-en
Calculating dependencies... done!
!!! Error: the =app-dicts/aspell-en-0.5* package conflicts with another package;
!!! the two packages cannot be installed on the same system together.
!!! Please use 'emerge --pretend' to determine blockers.
For more information about Blocked Packages, please refer to the following
section of the Gentoo Linux x86 Handbook (architecture is irrelevant):
http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/handbook-x86.xml?full=1#blocked
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Then I decided to see what the bloackage was:
_____________________________________________________
localhost ~ # emerge --pretend aspell-en
These are the packages that would be merged, in order:
Calculating dependencies... done!
[ebuild U ] app-dicts/aspell-en-6.0.0 [0.51.1]
[ebuild U ] app-text/aspell-0.60.5 [0.50.5-r4] USE="nls%* -examples%"
[blocks B ] =app-dicts/aspell-en-0.5* (is blocking app-text/aspell-0.60.5)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Do I need to handle this problem now or can I skip it for the time being? If I can continue my installation, can I randomly install the remaining components or does it have to be done sequentially? Are spidermonkey and opensrf dependent on the perl modules ?
Thanks.

different version of Syslog shouldn't cause a problem, whereas a
conflict with a perl module would. What packages are being blocked?
