[gentoo-user] update world but just kde-2.5 not other versions
I'd like to update world ofter a sync this morning but taking a look at: `emerge -v -Dup world' Shows several kde-3.5 and several kde-3.4.3 (I'm currently running 3.4.1). There has been discussion here about slots but I didn't notice anyone asking about or telling about how to avoid this unecessary double whammy. Also wondering if my /etc/portage.keywords has some bearing on this so it is also included below emerge output: emerge -v -uDp worls output below but only kde stuff.

Hi, Shows several kde-3.5 and several kde-3.4.3 (I'm currently running 3.4.1). There has been discussion here about slots but I didn't notice anyone asking about or telling about how to avoid this unecessary double whammy. uhm. I just emerged KDE 3.4.3 and thanks to your post I just noticed that there still seem to exist some KDE 3.1 and 3.3 packages (at least I see /usr/kde/3.1 and 3.3 which both contain files). What is the proper way to delete them? As we are at it: I'm used to switch to another virtual console and doing a startx -- :1 as a different user to start a second KDE session for testing purposes. Unfortunately this still starts KDE 3.3 instead of 3.4. I opened startx in vi but to be honest I'm not a master in reading complex shell scripts. Thanks best regards ce -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

There has been discussion here about slots but I didn't notice anyone asking about or telling about how to avoid this unecessary double whammy. This has been covered several times in those threads. After merging 3.5, and ensuring it works, you can prune older versions. uhm. I just emerged KDE 3.4.3 and thanks to your post I just noticed that there still seem to exist some KDE 3.1 and 3.3 packages (at least I see /usr/kde/3.1 and 3.3 which both contain files). Also covered in those threads. If any files are modified after installation, portage will not remove them. As KDE keeps config files in /usr/kde/version (more accurately, in $KDEDIR), those few files will not be removed. Check the directories with du, they probably only contain a few KB. -- Neil Bothwick WinErr 00F: Unexplained error - Please tell us how this happened signature.asc Description: PGP signature
