I "emerge -vp lxqt-meta" and it gave me an output of masked packages which I populated /etc/portage/package.accept_keywords eg =lxqt-base/lxqt-panel-0.7.0-r1 ~amd64 etc Then emerge "emerge lxqt-meta" again. It only depends on qt4 packages though. Not sure about qt5 as I believe this is not available in standard packages yet. I can only see qt versions 4.8.5 in portage. Perhaps the use flag is for future functionality. Or you may need to use an overlay to get qt5. I did not use lxde before but razor. Its very similar to this. -- John D Maunder
