Here I was talking about cleaning out the cruft that third party applications that do not belong to KDE may leave behind after you have removed KDE from an old slot. This has nothing to do with the problems below. It is relevant when you are done upgrading kde and not before. [SNIP] > Well, something is messed up.

Did you unmerge kde? It depends on the monolithic packages above. # emerge --unmerge kde > I tried revdep-rebuild > emerge --rsync and > env-update && source /etc/profile && etc-update && > update-eix && eupdatedb That's pretty pointless at the moment. When you don't know what is pulling something in you should add --tree to the emerge command. -- Bo Andresen
