Thing is I cannot emerge both at the same time.
Well, by looking on the forums it seems you have a "mixed" system. kdepim is a monolithic package. kdepim-kioslaves is a package of the kde split packages. Try unmerging kdepim and emerging kdepim-meta, and anyways be sure of having a kde relying on split packages (that's the way to go in the future) http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-355389.html m. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
