qt*-4.5.1 blocks qt*-4.5.2. It's not a simple single package that you upgrade, it's multiple packages and throughout the build you will have incompatible packages installed at the same time. Either: unmerge all of qt emerge all of qt or: upgrade to masked portage-2.2 which can deal with such things easily. Note that you will likely need to rebuild kdelibs and other stuff after building qt. There's an elog about it. -- alan dot mckinnon at gmail dot com
