KDE is slotted and you have both 3.4.1 and 3.3.2 installed.
emerge -P kdegraphics will get rid of the older version. You can get
rid
of all the older KDE packages with
qpkg -I -nc -g kde-base | xargs emerge -P
That cleared out quite a lot, but if I run `emerge -Pp` I see that
there's lots of other slotted packages on my system (see attached).
The warnings in emerge's manpage are quite clear about the use of -P
so, having cleared out KDE 3.3.2 components, I have to ask if there's a
safe way to determine if there's any other unnecessary crap on my
system.
TIA,
Stroller.
