I have already done that and it shows: =========================================== [snip...] [nomerge ] kde-base/noatun-plugins-3.5.5 USE="sdl -arts* -berkdb -debug -kdeenablefinal -xinerama (-kdehiddenvisibility%)" [nomerge ] kde-base/noatun-3.5.5 USE="-debug -kdeenablefinal -xinerama" [ebuild N ] kde-base/kdemultimedia-arts-3.5.5 USE="-debug -kdeenablefinal -xinerama" 0 kB [snip...] [nomerge ] kde-base/noatun-plugins-3.5.5 USE="sdl -arts* -berkdb -debug -kdeenablefinal -xinerama (-kdehiddenvisibility%)" [nomerge ] kde-base/noatun-3.5.5 USE="-debug -kdeenablefinal -xinerama" [nomerge ] kde-base/kdemultimedia-arts-3.5.5 USE="-debug -kdeenablefinal -xinerama" [ebuild N ] kde-base/arts-3.5.5 USE="alsa mp3 vorbis -artswrappersuid -debug -esd -jack -kdeenablefinal -nas -xinerama" 0 kB =========================================== Then I rebuilt --oneshot noatun & noatune-plugins thinking that I've cracked it, but evidently I hadn't. So, I just unmerged kde-base/noatune-plugins and at last aRTs is no longer asking to be rebuild kde-base/arts & multimedia-arts. For posterity, to get rid of aRTs in your KDE meta applications add the -arts USE flag in your /etc/make.conf and then run: # emerge -Cv kde-base/artsplugin-akode kde-base/noatune-plugins kde-base/kdemultimedia-arts kde-base/arts # emerge -uaDNv world Check the list before you hit 'Yes' in case portage is trying to emerge afresh any of the arts packages. Your system may have more than the packages I've suggested you unmerge above, in which case off with their head! Thank you all for your help. -- Regards, Mick
