In my experience, you may get away with this regime for a short time on
an almost new system, but it will almost invariably break an older
system (due to emerge depclean)
The safest/most reasonable order is

Any experiences, suggestions?
Thanks in advance.

Good point, Eric. Your point being that unless you stop and restart all

Hello all,
I installed KDE 3.4 on my machine (mostly using the single packages not the

Most is running fine, but I cannot install some parts (ark and kde-i18n).

I've done exactly this for quite some time. And I even implemented
something resembling a program to do it for me, without the need for
locking or other more advanced functionality. Ran it automatically
