Closing my original question, I followed Alan's advice, fiddled the
world file, and whilst not exactly "hey presto", a few emerge's, some
hand manipulation of a few files and eventually it worked.

It's a bit of a jump, I'd become quite used to Dolphin and whilst
pcmanfm likes to think of itself as a dolphin replacement, it's a long
long way from being so. There is no autohide of the task bar, no
slideshow wallpaper option, I still can't work out automounting of usb's
and plenty more to keep you on your toes.

So thanks for all of your suggestions.

You can determine this yourself:

 3)What are current known bugs/instabilities/issues/what of KDE 3.5
 packages I should be aware of? I don't use KDE itself (I'm happy with
 Fluxbox) but I use KDE apps very much (Konqueror,Kwrite,Kate,K3b...).

It has been stable for me...no crashes or glitches to speak of.  If
you actually use KDE, you need a new version of dbus/hal for hotplug
device integration.  Anyway why not search bugs.gentoo.org for this
information?

I think it is important to note that KDE 3.5 has been released as
stable by KDE for some time.  It is only the ebuilds that are still
marked as testing.

 I have kept these pacakges masked for a while on other systems,

 So my questions are:

 1. Are these still the most updated urls?

I believe so.

 2. Which should be performed first kde monolithic--meta

Definitely the Xorg monolithic to modular upgrade. KDE is based on X.org. Not 
the other way around... Further X.org was contrary to KDE made modular by 
upstream. This means that monolithic X.org is no longer supported. Monolithic 
KDE is still supported and hence you don't really have to make that change. 

 3. Is there any method to streamline/automate these tasks
 so that the machines compile the new software overnight, unattended?
[...]
 thoughts and recomendations are most welcome.

First you need to decide if you want all of X.org (virtual/x11) or a more 
minimal install (xorg-base/x11-xorg). Likewise you need to decide if you want 
all of KDE (kde-base/kde-meta) or only selected apps or something in the 
middle.

Also if these computers aren't too different (i.e. the CFLAGS are alike - same 
arch) from each other it might be worth the effort to make use flags the same 
and create a binhost. That way after compiling it on one computer with 
FEATURES=buildpkg you wouldn't have to compile them again for any of the 
remaining computers. Just make the binary packages available via e.g. ftp and 
set the PORTAGE_BINHOST variable on the computers while you have them. Then 
you can use emerge --getbinpkg to emerge the packages...

Yes, That solves how to install a new kde (mono, meta, split) but

I have stuff from kde 3.2, 3.3., 3.4 on some of my older systems.

I seem to be tracking down a multitude of kde related trivial issues
on a variety of kde/gentoo systems I manage.


  Is there an easy way to remove all of the kde packages before
  migration to kde-meta?
 
 Sure. But it would remove packages that the meta packages depend on too. 
 kde-base/kdelibs takes a long time to compile and hence shouldn't be removed 
 as you still need it. Unless of course you need to upgrade it anyway. This 
 might be feasible:
 
 #cd /var/db/pkg  emerge -Cva `ls -d kde-base/* | grep -v -r 'kdelibs\|arts'`
 
 It will remove everything in the kde-base category except kdelibs and arts. 
 Make sure to check what it removes before doing it. It shouldn't be more than 
 13 packages.

  But if meta 
  is going away, like the monolithic kde packaging (eventually)

 Why would you think the kde-meta aka the split packages would be going away? 
 They certainly won't.
 
xfree_vs_xorg, dev_vs_udev,  and now kde seem to need major surgery
Historical experiences with Gentoo. Gentoo is great for the current
new stuff, but often, I'm learning and dealing with minutia, I would 
prefer to avoid. When I do avoid the gentoo minutia, I get burned,
like now having to move to meta or split. Granted, in the long run,
these migrations have been good, but it's still painful (time consuming)
 to walk the gentoo path, at times


 Actually there aren't a lot of monolithic packages. [1] lists them all in a 
 box in section 2. If you have all of them you still need to remove only 13 
 packages.

Well, but, on some systems, I have kde files from 3.2, 3.3 and 3.4 
and 3.5.2  now installed. I have a mess across 7 differnet gentoo
workstations. 

 
  These are the packages that would be merged, in reverse order:
  Calculating dependencies... done!
   .[blocks B ] =kde-base/kdemultimedia-3.5* (is blocking
  kde-base/kaboodle-3.5.2) .[blocks B ] =kde-base/kdemultimedia-3.5* (is
  blocking
  kde-base/kdemultimedia-kappfinder-data-3.5.2)
 
 This tells you that kde-base/kdemultimedia blocks both kaboodle and 
 kdemultimedia-kappfinder-data. You only need to remove the one package 
 kdemultimedia. It just blocks a lot of packages that are pulled in by 
 kde-meta.
 
 [SNIP]
 
  From mono to split? Some gentoo/kde systems I manage will want
  to go to the split system or a few kde-meta packages and the
  rest of the kde(split) apps individually installed.
 
 Do what I said above or just remove the few packages manually when they block 
 something. There really aren't that many. emerging any split package will 
 work just as well as the meta packages. You should only use the meta packages 
 if you wan't everything.

Follow the trace  given  by  emerge:  something  in  your  @world  set  requires
`kdenetwork-meta`, which subsequently requires `krfb`.  The latter then requires
the `screencast` flag on `xdg-desktop-portal` if, and  only  if,  the  `wayland`
flag is set.

To remove the `screencast` requirement, disable `wayland` on `krfb`.

Re: [gentoo-user] Question about eix-test-obsolete output

2008-04-13 Thread Daniel Pielmeier

  Installed packages with a version not in the database (or masked):

As it says this apps are either not in the database or masked.

kde-base/kdeaddons-docs-konq-plugins-3.5.9 masked
kde-base/kdeaddons-kfile-plugins-3.5.9 masked
kde-base/kdeaddons-meta-3.5.9 masked
sys-kernel/gentoo-sources-2.6.23-r3 not in the tree and thus not in the 
eix-database anymore.

x11-apps/xinit-1.0.5-r2 masked

I guess portage will downgrade the masked ones if you run emerge -uND 
world, so if you want them put them in package.keywords. You can remove 
gentoo-sources from /etc/portage/package.whatever as it is not in the 
tree anymore.

Okay, step by step. First I chose the basic make.profile, number 1, and 
installed my base system set - everything that doesn't need a GUI. Then I 
switched to the basic desktop profile, number 5 and ran a -uav @world. So far 
so good, but then I attempted to install a basic set of GUI packages - 
everything but a DE. The command was 'emerge -uav @xorg'. I got this:

​Hello Mick,

kdepim applications have been not ported to Plasma 5 yet. You will not have
problem with those.

Some applications migrated are:  ark, dolphin, gwenview, kate, konsole,
kwrite, telepathy, konversation, marble and most of games and educational
applications.

[gentoo-user] do I need plasma-meta to use KDE ?

2018-12-07 Thread Philip Webb
I've just updated all my installed pkgs ( c 112 ) for KDE
(apps frameworks plasma), except for 'plasma-meta',
which raises an error :

  Error: The above package list contains packages which cannot be
  installed at the same time on the same system.

None of the pkgs in the error msg are needed by anything outside kde-plasma.

Before I reboot & risk failure of KDE to start,
can anyone advise me whether I need kde-plasma in order to use KDE ?

 Yes, you can't avoid having at least akonadi-server merged with kmail, it's a

 Which I guess proves the point that Dirk is making.  If I were to emerge
 akonadi again, will it pop up everytime I start kmail, knode, etc?

 No, at least mine doesn't here.

 I forget exactly what I did to achieve this, it was something like having
 trouble getting akonadi to work right, so I set all the kdepim apps to use the
 resource files directly in the fashion of KDE-3.5

Can you please share what you did on your system to make this happen
if you can remember?  Over here kde-base/akonadi is dragged in by
kde-base/kdepim-meta and I haven't found a way to disable it.  Every
time I fire up kmail it starts up and causes delay as it fails to

I have unmerged nepomuke and all related packages have been remerged

I did manually mask everything, I added yours to it as well, but emerge
still wants to pull in qt5 and a bunch of stuff not needed. I've
attached the emerge output - you can see it's pulling masked packages
in. I can't figure out what wants to pull in all the qt5 stuff.

I've already manually installed the packages from kde-sunset:

# emerge -pv kde-meta

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

...but a world update wants to change everything. And I can't figure out
how to read the tree output from emerge. I've attached that too.

Oh, I also read the manpage for eshowkw and it doesn't show packages

You appear to have monolithic kde packages installed. These have been removed 
for kde-3.5.10.

So kde apps are trying to upgrade themselves to 3.5.10, which conflicts with 
the monolithic 3.5.9 packages.

Options:

1. Mask all of 3.5.10 and every package
2. Remove monolithic packages and install -meta packages
3. Dump kde-3

[gentoo-user] doc USE flag causes circular dependencies error

2007-02-25 Thread Bob Young

I'm bringing up a new Gentoo box, and last night I successfully merged
xorg-x11, this morning when I tried to merge KDE, I got a circular
dependencies error. As a first troubleshooting step I trimmed my USE flags
down to a minimum and found the error went away. After several rounds of
adding/removing lines/individual USE flags I found that the doc flag was
the source of the error:


USE=kde X qt4 doc emerge -pv kde-meta

Aha!  I had a quick look, the versions which have the +oldwallet flag set are 
not stable yet.  Perhaps the next versions of kde-apps/kdebase-runtime-meta 
and kde-plasma/kwallet-pam ought to fix the kdwallet migration problem.

KDE should separate its releases by minor version. KDE 3.2 or 3.3 shouldn't interfere with KDE 3.4, which makes me wonder why and older version is blocking things. emerge kde-meta and see what kind of trouble it gives you.



Re: [gentoo-user] kde 4.2.1 sill pulling in 3.5 packages

2009-03-24 Thread Alan McKinnon
On Tuesday 24 March 2009 19:26:45 James wrote:
 Hello,

 Confidence is high that I've mucked_up this upgrade to
 kde-4.2.1.

 I was content to leave the system at 3.5.9 and while
 I was messing around, I guess I triggered a kde 4.2.1 install
 (I had started the upgrade and decide to wait some weeks ago.)


 Long story short, I'm now running kde-4.2.1 [OK]

 I moved my world file to a backup so as to avoid all
 of those dependency issues. It worked pretty well.
 However, now I'm adding the packages back a few at a
 time and lots of stuff calls for kdelibs-3.5.9-r1.


 Where I'm confused is can I have 2 versions
 of kdelibs installed at the same time?
 My gut tells me NO?

Yes, you can. In fact, this is the whole point of SLOTs. The versions are kept 
separate by putting them in different directories. KDE-3.5 stuff always goes 
in /usr/kde/3.5 whereas KDE-4 can go in one of two places depending on the 
setting of the kdeprefix USE flag:

with USE=kdeprefix  /usr/kde/4.x
with USE=-kdeprefix /usr/

The apps don't get confused becuase when they are built and linked, the 
relevant tools are instructed where the correct libs are. So, KDE-4 apps do 
not get told to link against KDE-3.5 libraries. If they do, then it is a bug.

 What am I missing. Kde-4.2.1 is up and running.
 Although I have not extensively tested it, I can
 run konqueror and seamonkey and many other apps.
 just fine.

As it is supposed to.

 So what I think I need to do (again) is

 Mask kdelibs 3.5.x completely?

Not really necessary

 (syntax suggestions here for package.mask are welcome)

 emerge -C kde-3.5.9* (can I do this?)
 emerge --depclean -a

 and then watch closely what I emerge?

Honestly, the best way is to just not install stuff that needs kde-3.5 
packages. I use KDE-4, but I still have kdelibs-3.5 installed - I have a few 
3.5 apps that are not yet ported to 4 (like luma). Getting to this point can 
happen in several ways, depending on how you installed kde-3.5 originally.

1. If you ran 'emerge kde' and have monolithic versions, get rid of them with 
emerge -C (or just delete them out of your world file).

2. If you emerge the kde -meta ebuilds, then unmerge them (or delete them from 
world)

3. If you installed a bunch of kde apps individually, then find them in world 
and delete them.

Now run 'emerge -av --depclean' and closely inspect what portage wants to 
nuke. With luck, it'll be a whole horde of 3.5 stuff, so let it rip when you 
are happy with it. Then run 'emerge -pvuND world' and see if portage wants to 
re-install anything from kde-3.5 (this is indeed highly likely...). Now use 
your various portage tools (q, equery, etc) to find out why portage wants to 
add 3.5 apps back in, and deal with that issue. One at a time. Rinse, repeat 
in a recursive process till 3.5 is gone.

You don't really need to mask anything, unless you are a thick idiot who never

suggest that thick idiot is not an accurate description :-)

Avoiding having kde-3.5 stuff installed is exactly the same as avoiding having 
firefox installed - don't emerge it.

Well, re-using code makes sense and if pa saves KDE devs time all is good.  
The problem is when said code drags in a whole new environment monoculture.  
Err... systemd anyone?  ;-)

And the next problem:

!!! All ebuilds that could satisfy "kde-plasma/plasma-workspace-wallpapers:5" 
have been masked.
!!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request:
- kde-plasma/plasma-workspace-wallpapers-5.7.3::gentoo (masked by: 
package.mask, ~amd64 keyword)
- kde-plasma/plasma-workspace-wallpapers-5.6.5::gentoo (masked by: 
package.mask)

(dependency required by "kde-base/kdebase-startkde-4.11.22-
r2::gentoo[wallpapers]" [installed])
(dependency required by "@selected" [set])
(dependency required by "@world" [argument])

Why does kdebase-startkde:4 want plasma-workspace-wallpapers:5? has anyone 
solved this yet?

Thanks

Hey,

There is also /usr/share/kde4/services/icons.desktop, which is the
icons KCM (KDE control module) that you want.  You can start it with:

$ kcmshell4 icons

This module is provided by kde-base/kcontrol, which is pulled in by
kde-base/kdebase-runtime-meta.  Do you have both of those installed?
You need the second one for KDE apps to function properly.

Cheers,
Bryan

 Aah ok well the howto i found on google didn't mention anything about using
 meta packages for the apps once i had the base installed. This could
 explain why I have spent the last week compiling stuff for kde ;)

Well, you only need meta packages if you want to install everything that ships 
together upstream. You could just emerge the split packages you want such as 
e.g. konqueror, kcontrol, etc..

 Ok i'll probably re-install unless there's some easy way to clean up.

There certainly is an easier way than reinstalling for this issue. What you've 
posted thus far actually suggests that you haven't made a mess out of your 
system yet as it showed kdepim and kdebase as not yet installed. In that case 
you just need to stop trying to install monolithic packages.

Otherwise you need to unmerge the monolithic packages you've installed 
with --nodeps and remerge the split packages that they've overwritten. Code 
Listing 3.1 in the above document shows you how to get the name of the 
packages any monolithic package would overwrite.

E.g. if you've emerged kdebase-meta and kdebase at the same time and you want 
to stick with split packages you can do this:

# emerge -Cva kdebase
# function die() { echo $@; }
# source $(portageq portdir)/eclass/kde-functions.eclass
# emerge --oneshot -va $(get-child-packages kde-base/kdebase)

[gentoo-user] can not emerge KDE-META (ACCESS DENIED chmod: /usr/share/config)

2008-11-03 Thread Rafael Barrera Oro
Whenever i try to emerge KDE-META-4.1.2-r1, everything goes fine until the
process suddenly dies with the following epitaph:

ACCESS DENIED  chmod: /usr/share/config

that there was an update available, nevertheless, the problem was not fixed.

   grep kde /var/lib/portage/world
   and eyeball the output. There should only be -meta packages, and
   individual packages for which you have NOT installed the -meta
   package, in there. vi the world file and remove the stuff that
   shouldn't be there, then
  
   emerge -C all-kde3.5-meta-packages-in-world  emerge -a
   --depclean
 
  as alternative simply append to all kde-base/* packages in world :4.3
  and do then a depclean ;-)
 
  Which promptly defeats the ENTIRE purpose of a world file and -meta
  packages.
 
 a) I've never used the meta packages, but selected my KDE apps on purpose
 
 You missed the part where the user clearly states earlier that he DOES use
 -meta packages. With that in mind, any advice you give should be aligned
 to the fact that he is a -meta user

 b) it's a lot easier this way to get rid of the KDE 3 stuff, however you
 should get drop of the slot again after depclean has been finished
 
 How is it easier? You have to maintain the SLOTs in world yourself because
 the instant you do that portage will not automagically offer to upgrade
 anymore (upgrades within the same slot excepted). And --depclean will NOT
 adjust your SLOTs in world when it's finished. I can't really make sense
 of your last sentence but that is what you seem to imply

Yes, that's what I've said. Drop the slot again after depclean has finished.
Exactly because of the upgrades.

  If that's how you want to admin your box,
 
 I am using long enough Gentoo that I remember very well the times when
 portage destroyed the world file completely.
 
 That was long ago and no longer applicable. That bug in portage got fixed,
 so a behaviour on your part to compensate for a bug that is not there is
 outdated behaviour.

 And regenworld put *anything*
 into world at that time. Therefore I know very well, what should be in
 this file and what not. There's no magic.
 
 Yes, the only things in world are packages you want that are not
 dependencies of something else already in world. You are advising the user
 to put the dependencies of -meta packages into world

No. I adviced him to add :4.3 to all kde-base/* packages that *are* in
world. 

 when the -meta 
 package is already there.

It does not matter in this case if the package is -meta or not.

 
 And that is plain silly
  
  can I recommend you switch to
  sabayon instead?
 
 ROFL! So, you mean, if users get too smart, Gentoo is no longer their
 distribution? Don't be silly.
 
 Erm, you should read the whole thread and realise the bits you missed -
 the bits that make your statements nonsensical

All I did, was offering an alternative method to get rid of KDE 3 using
depclean without the need to identify every package individually.

Feel free to ignore it.

2006-04-10 Thread Daniel
I installed the kde meta-packages because I didn't want to be burdened with 
stuff I didn't need.  Unfortunately, I had to add these packages 
to /etc/portage/packages.keywords in order to get them to install and 
everything was fine for about 2days.  And then this happened:

# emerge --pretend --update --deep world

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Hmm, if I'm not mistaken, if you've emerged kde-meta, none of the 
other kde things should be in your world file.  You've probably 
done a few emerges without using the --oneshot option.  When all 
the things below don't help, or have heleped, you may want to 
delete the superfluous lines and do a fresh 'emerge -Du world', 
just to be sure all is okay.

 # grep kde /etc/env.d/*

Delete all the other kde files from /etc/env.d/, keeping only the 
3.4 one.  The older ones are not needed any more since you've 
uninstalled those versions, no?  This may solve some of your 
problems by removing that KDEDIR env var.

 I suspect that if I could figure out why konqueror (and other
 apps) seem to still want to point to 3.1 libraries I could get to
 the bottom of my problems.

Maybe because of that KDEDIR var.  When you've deleted the obsolete 
env files, do 'env-update' and restart KDE.

 # emerge -Dup world
 [...]

Okay, your system looks pretty much up-to-date.  But:

 [ebuild U ] kde-base/kdebase-pam-6 [4]

Try updating this one, with 'emerge --oneshot kdebase-pam'.  It may 
solve some access problems, maybe those of kicker.  After emerging, 
log out and back in.

 # eix -e python
[...]
  Installed:   2.2.3-r6 2.3.5-r2

The ancient version is still installed, no harm in it probably, but 
no need for it either.  If you wish, unmerge it with 'emerge -C 
=python-2.2.3-r6', ignoring the warning.

 # emerge -p --depclean
 [...]
 !!! There appears to be a problem with the following package:
 !!! media-libs/libquicktime

Use 'eix -e ...'  to see which of these packages, libquicktime, 
openquicktime, giflib, libungif, you've got installed, uninstall 
each of them with 'emerge -C =...', and later let a fresh 'emerge 
-Du world' install the one's that are really needed.

That's a long list...  So first resolve the blocking issues (if it 
gives you trouble, search bugs.gentoo.org or the forums or the 
archives of this list), then run 'emerge --depclean' in earnest to 
get rid of all the obsoletes, after that do a 'revdep-rebuild', and 
conclude with 'emerge -Du world'.

Re: [gentoo-user] Finer grained kde*-meta packages

2007-06-18 Thread Neil Bothwick
Hello Alan McKinnon,

 'emerge *-meta' is fine if one wants everything, or 'emerge kopete
 kmail konqueror' if you just want a few bits like me, but there's this
 large no-man's land in the middle where it is just unweildy. No fault
 of Gentoo, it's all KDEs fault for having 300+ distinct apps/code 
 bodies :-)

But you don't need all of them in world, many are only installed as
dependencies of other packages. I have most of KDE installed here, yet
only 67 kde-base packages in world. You could reduce that sill further
by using more than the two meta packages I currently have.

Remove ALL version-specific information for kde entries from world.
Don't mix and match -meta packages and sets.
Beware of kde-misc entries - often times they have depends on the old SLOT and

[gentoo-user] has the sun set ?

2015-05-31 Thread Philip Webb
Using Kde-Sunset, I have  3  useful apps available in forms
which aren't provided by KDE 4 (Kworldclock Ksokoban Kmahjongg).

Yesterday, while doing my weekly system update, I encountered a msg :

  !!! The following installed packages are masked:
  - media-libs/lcms-1.19-r1::gentoo (masked by: package.mask)
  /usr/portage/profiles/package.mask:
  # Matthias Maier tam...@gentoo.org (27 May 2015)
  # on behalf of Andreas K. Huettel dilfri...@gentoo.org
  # media-libs/lcms:0 has serious security issues and is unmaintained,
  # see bug 526642. Please uninstall it and/or upgrade to media-libs/lcms:2

I looked at the bug, which explains the reason for dropping Lcms:0 .

Unfortunately, Kde-Sunset appears to require Lcms:0 for Libmng:0 ,
which is required by Qt-Meta:3  which aren't included in Kde-Sunset itself.
For now, I can simply ignore the warning, but it looks
as if it wb no longer possible to install Kde-Sunset on a new machine.

I realise Gentoo itself doesn't provide support for Kde-Sunset,
but does anyone know of a way round this obstacle or have other advice ?

I really shouldn't try troubleshooting when tired...

I had to explictly do:

emerge -pv =kde-apps/kde-meta-4.14.3-r1

Then it works (pulls from kde-sunset.)

However, if I try to update @world, it still wants to drag in a bunch of
kde5 crap.

I think this is due to kdelibs. And of course they've removed the old
kdelibs from the tree:

# equery list kdelibs
 * Searching for kdelibs ...
[I--] [??] kde-base/kdelibs-4.14.16:4/4.14

I also appears that old kde4 versions of kdelibs are not in kde-sunset
(yet?) or maybe it's not planned to put one there.

So I'll just live with not updating my machine. At this point I'm so
annoyed I couldn't care less. I rarely install applications as it is.

Why a KDE component would depend on GNOME is another question entirely,

[gentoo-user] KDE5 stuff and media-libs/mlt conflict

2016-01-05 Thread Dale
Howdy,

I was going to try out some of the KDE5 stuff just to see if I'm going
to like it or not.  Anyway, I added a BUNCH of stuff to a keywords file
related to KDE and got past that part.  I think I got them all.  Now I
get this:


These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies... done!

!!! The ebuild selected to satisfy
">=media-libs/mlt-0.9.8-r1[ffmpeg,kdenlive,melt,qt5,sdl,xml]" has unmet
requirements.
- media-libs/mlt-0.9.8-r2::gentoo USE="ffmpeg frei0r gtk kde kdenlive
melt opengl python qt5 sdl xml -compressed-lumas -debug -fftw -jack
-libav -libsamplerate -lua -qt4 -rtaudio (-ruby) -vdpau -xine"
ABI_X86="64" CPU_FLAGS_X86="mmx sse sse2" PYTHON_TARGETS="python2_7"

  The following REQUIRED_USE flag constraints are unsatisfied:
kde? ( qt4 )

  The above constraints are a subset of the following complete expression:
    python? ( python_targets_python2_7 ) qt5? ( !qt4 ) kde? ( qt4 )

(dependency required by "kde-apps/kdenlive-15.12.0-r1::gentoo" [ebuild])
(dependency required by "kde-apps/kdemultimedia-meta-15.08.3::gentoo"
[ebuild])
(dependency required by "=kde-apps/kdemultimedia-meta-15.08.3" [argument])
root@fireball / # 


There used to be more than that but I got rid of some by disabling qt4
on some packages in package.use.  It seems some can't handle both being
enabled so disabled it is for now.  Still, I can't figure out what
emerge is trying to tell me here.  I don't have a decoder ring but I
know a couple here do.  To try and get a idea on this for the future,
I'm going to ask this way. 

When it says kde?, what does that mean?  Does it want me to specify a
version or something?  I couldn't find a USE flag for a version of KDE,
just the plain kde flag. 

Before it had a !qt4 in the error.  I assume that ! means NO.  After I
disabled qt4 for the packages, that part of the error went away.  Am I
right on that or just lucky?  Keep in mind, I'm not even a script
kiddy.  :/ 

OK Alan and Neil.  Whip out your decoder ring.  What is this thing
trying to tell me.  lol

Re: [gentoo-user] Re: KDE (mono to meta) migration

2006-06-22 Thread Bo Ørsted Andresen
Just showing a couple of tricks.

On Thursday 22 June 2006 20:15, James wrote:
 Yes, That solves how to install a new kde (mono, meta, split) but
 does not really address cleanzing the sytem of all the old kde kruft.
 I have stuff from kde 3.2, 3.3., 3.4 on some of my older systems.

This removes everything in kde-base that is version 3.2, 3.3 or 3.4 (and
installed of course):

# cd /var/db/pkg  emerge -Cva kde-base/*-3.{2,3,4}*

  #cd /var/db/pkg  emerge -Cva `ls -d kde-base/* | grep -v -r \
  'kdelibs\|arts'`

One could add a version too so that only the newest version of kdelibs and
arts is kept since it is still required. Like this:

# cd /var/db/pkg  emerge -Cva  `ls kde-base | grep -v -r 
'kdelibs-3\.5\.3\|arts-3\.5\.3'`

 Beside, my thoughts are to remove everthing and start from fresh, as
 I seem to be tracking down a multitude of kde related trivial issues
 on a variety of kde/gentoo systems I manage.

This removes everything in kde-base. It's equivalent to Neils suggestion.

# cd /var/db/pkg  emerge -Cva kde-base/*

Also after removing old slots there may still be third party apps left that has
been compiled against the old versions. They need to be remerged after the new
version of kde has been emerged to compile them against the new version and
remove the old cruft in /usr/kde/3.4 etc.

This will show you what packages still have cruft in /usr/kde/3.2 - 3.4:

# find /usr/kde/3.{2,3,4} | xargs equery belongs | cat

Unmerge what you don't need or remerge (after emerging kde 3.5) what you still
need. When you are done with that the above command should give no output and
any files still in /usr/kde/3.2 - 3.4 can be safely deleted since they belong
to no package. Pay attention to what you do though. A revdep-rebuild before
this step will probably take care of most of this.

 xfree_vs_xorg, dev_vs_udev,  and now kde seem to need major surgery
 Historical experiences with Gentoo. Gentoo is great for the current
 new stuff, but often, I'm learning and dealing with minutia, I would
 prefer to avoid. When I do avoid the gentoo minutia, I get burned,
 like now having to move to meta or split. Granted, in the long run,
 these migrations have been good, but it's still painful (time consuming)
  to walk the gentoo path, at times

The split packages are replacing the monolithic. Not the other way around. And
KDE 4.x will get out next spring.

Yes, you can't avoid having at least akonadi-server merged with kmail, it's a

 Which I guess proves the point that Dirk is making.  If I were to emerge
 akonadi again, will it pop up everytime I start kmail, knode, etc?

No, at least mine doesn't here.
 
I forget exactly what I did to achieve this, it was something like having

   grep kde /var/lib/portage/world

   individual packages for which you have NOT installed the -meta

   shouldn't be there, then
  
   emerge -C all-kde3.5-meta-packages-in-world  emerge -a --depclean
 
  as alternative simply append to all kde-base/* packages in world :4.3
  and do then a depclean ;-)
 
  Which promptly defeats the ENTIRE purpose of a world file and -meta
  packages.
 
 a) I've never used the meta packages, but selected my KDE apps on purpose

You missed the part where the user clearly states earlier that he DOES use 
-meta packages. With that in mind, any advice you give should be aligned to 
the fact that he is a -meta user

 b) it's a lot easier this way to get rid of the KDE 3 stuff, however you
 should get drop of the slot again after depclean has been finished

How is it easier? You have to maintain the SLOTs in world yourself because the 
instant you do that portage will not automagically offer to upgrade anymore 
(upgrades within the same slot excepted). And --depclean will NOT adjust your 
SLOTs in world when it's finished. I can't really make sense of your last 
sentence but that is what you seem to imply


  If that's how you want to admin your box,
 
 I am using long enough Gentoo that I remember very well the times when
 portage destroyed the world file completely. 

That was long ago and no longer applicable. That bug in portage got fixed, so 
a behaviour on your part to compensate for a bug that is not there is outdated 
behaviour.

 And regenworld put *anything*
 into world at that time. Therefore I know very well, what should be in this
 file and what not. There's no magic.

Yes, the only things in world are packages you want that are not dependencies 
of something else already in world. You are advising the user to put the 
dependencies of -meta packages into world when the -meta package is already 
there.

And that is plain silly
 
  can I recommend you switch to
  sabayon instead?
 
 ROFL! So, you mean, if users get too smart, Gentoo is no longer their
 distribution? Don't be silly.

Erm, you should read the whole thread and realise the bits you missed - the 
bits that make your statements nonsensical

 With split ebuilds you mean for example the ebuild for kppp? Or
 are you talking about the kde*-meta ebuilds?

Sorry for not being clearer. I meant USE flags in the -meta ebuilds, to 
disable undesired apps like kppp. Sort of like:

DEPEND=
  kde-base/this-app
  !nokppp? ( kde-base/kppp )
  kde-base/that-app
  

I use a no* flag as the default should be to install everything except 
the stuff the user doesn't want. Expecting user to enable a bunch of 
flags to get the equivalent of an upstream ebuild is a bit much :-)

 My focus is on the meta ebuilds. There I'd like to be able to control
 to a finer degree, what's to be installed and what's not to be
 installed.

So, we're on the same wavelength. Think I'll pop over to bgo and add my 
voice to the comments...

  Beware of kde-misc entries - often times they have depends on the old
  SLOT and pull in conflicts. These ebuilds are not as maintained as the
  kdebase ones, same with the apps themselves.

In general terms, portage knows you have package A that must stay at v4.3.5 
and you want to upgrade it (or more likely something that depends on it) to 
v4.4. It's telling you I can't/won't do that.

Please post the portage output for the blockers that portage won't resolve 
(not everything, that will be about 5000 lines) plus the command you are 
running if it's not emerge -avuND world.

Also, are you aware that as of yesterday, KDE-4.4 was still hard masked in 
$PORTDIR/profiles/package.mask? It may have been removed meanwhile since my 
last sync. And what do you have related to kde in your own 
/etc/portage/package* ?

If you only install the meta-ebuilds, that's true... Perhaps I should 
have prefaced it with a 'YMMV', but if you have three DEs (or two and a 
WM) you tend to have a lot of complimentary apps installed to go with 
each, increasing your world-count.  That is, unless you make custom

I guess portage will downgrade the masked ones if you run emerge -uND 
world, so if you want them put them in package.keywords. You can 
remove gentoo-sources from /etc/portage/package.whatever as it is not 
in the tree anymore.

emerge -uNDvp world comes out clean.  I can not find 
gentoo-sources-2.6.23-r3 in any file in /etc/portage/package.* so sort

Volker already mentioned the driver problem.  If you wonder *why* the 
drivers are broken:


GeForce 8xxx and 9xxx series almost completely lack 2D acceleration 
hardware.  The 3D engine of the hardware must be used to render 2D stuff 
(including video).  NVidia has not really implemented this for their 
Linux drivers yet.  Right now, GeForce 5, 6 and 7 series is much faster 
with 2D on linux than GeForce 8 and 9.

I've been using KDE for a long time, for reasons that are no longer

I use gnome happily at work, both on Fedora and Ubuntu. All I need
from any of them is a panel with some favorites, and a pager for
multiple desktops.
I spend most of my time in vim, in the C program and documentation
toolchains or in a browser.

The reason I bring this up is that my account just froze on me from
running out of disk space. A little research showed that an
odd-sounding thing called nepomuk was using 7.2 G (SEVEN GIGS) in
some
dotfiles. It turns out to be a KDE client - whatever that is. I've
got a lot of space here and there, but my /home partition was never
near full before.

Put -semantic-desktop in your make.conf. emerge -auDN world. emerge
-a --depclean. That should do it.

Is that even possible? Won't a number of KDE apps demand the
semantic-desktop use flag set?

Don't know, never happened here.


Just tried it, and the following apps are being recompiled right now:

[ebuild R ] kde-base/pykde4-4.3.5-r1 USE=-semantic-desktop*
[ebuild R ] kde-base/gwenview-4.3.5 USE=-semantic-desktop*
[ebuild R ] kde-base/akonadi-4.3.5 USE=-semantic-desktop*

[ebuild R ] kde-base/kmail-4.3.5 USE=-semantic-desktop*
[ebuild R ] kde-base/kdeplasma-addons-4.3.5 USE=-semantic-desktop*

Let's see if it works.




I seem to recall that I had to enable this for some updates recently.
Something wouldn't compile without the USE flag being set. I don't think
I need the thing either so if this works now, I may change mine and try
it too. Also, I use the kde-meta package which may make a difference.


KMail from KDE 4.4 needs it.  KMail from KDE 4.3 doesn't.

The make.profile choice switches on/off certain USE flags and specifies a set 
of system packages for the particular profile.  These will in turn drag in 
other packages as dependencies when you update your system.  Therefore, unless 
you go for a minimalist make.profile you should not need to be emerging 
packages one at a time to get a functional desktop, although you will need to 
emerge individual applications of choice if these are not already included in 
the DE default set of packages.  More details:

https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Profile_(Portage)

KDE applications are mostly grouped in meta packages.  These are meant to be 
installed selectively.  For example I install 'kde-apps/kdepim-meta' because I 
use Kmail, but will not install 'kde-apps/kdegames-meta' because I don't run 
any games applications.

Yes, as I mention above, it modifies USE flags and specifies a set of system 
packages too.

You could have started with a stripped down profile, like 'default/linux/
amd64/17.1/systemd (stable)' and then spend a lot of time tweaking USE flags 
and installing various packages and meta packages to get to the same end 
result.  Thanks to Gentoo devs, all this work is no longer necessary since 
there are more make.profile options to choose from.  :-)

Re: [gentoo-user] KDE4.0?

 Ah, you may have to get a later version of KDE 3.5
 before going any
 farther.  I had 3.5.8 on mine and had no blocks with
 it.  Want my
 package.keywords and package.unmask files.

Ok, I copied over your files. Ran #update-eix and
#eix-sync. Then #emerge autounmask and ran

#autounmask kde-base/kde-meta-4.0.0 

which completed w/o error.

$eix kde picks up the new version:

...

 Available versions:  3.5.5:3.5 3.5.6:3.5

 Homepage:http://www.kde.org/

So far so good. But:

I disagree. My burden is maintaining KDE is about the same through major 
versions 3, 4 and 5. Nowadays I mostly list the 30 or so KDE apps I 
actually use in a set, and the USE flags for stuff I have and can use go 
in make.conf. The ebuilds then take care of things and mostly get it 
right. When I say "mostly", I really mean a big percentage with lots of 
9's in it[1]


It's important to realise that these new packages are not new software, 
they are existing software broken up into smaller more atomic chunks.


Example, in KDE-3 we had packages kde, and kde-*-meta. These were no 
atomic, they were "bunches of stuff sort-of somewhat related" like 
games, network and so on. When you break that up into lots of small 
packages, the burden goes *down*, in much the same way that software 
becomes easier when you refactor a giant main() with many global vars 
into many small self contained functions.


I have many times observed comments on -dev where kde maintainers bitch 
loudly about how difficult it is to maintain the large monolithic kde 
packages of versions <5. All this seems to add up to the opposite of 
what you are claiming.

  That would generate error messages.  The best solution is to get rid
whatever is pulling in KDE.  As for blocking stuff to pull in, to quote

/etc/portage/cleanup which generates /etc/portage/rsync_excludes on my

 if you've just completed a proper install from the handbook (presuming a

kde-meta and the world update, but you'd still need to add whatever software
your user would use).  


Got it.

One more question. I remember some time ago somebody had a slick
script or method to compile the apps listed in the world file,
from an existing system to the new system,
all together at once, rather that typing in all of those app
names into one giant emerge command.

I cannot seem to find that thread, via gmane.

Anyone remember that discussion and the resulting conclusion
(which I thought I save but cannot find in my files either) ?

or maybe the best method is:
emerge list of apps named in another systems world file

or just scp over a copy of the world file and issue:

emerge -uvDN world
revdep-rebuilduntil no errors?

???

recommndations on automating this final-step, on a new
installation, are most welcome.

There's always a solution, and they are seldom hard to solve. However,
portage doesn't exactly make it easy for you with the output. Mere
information is often obfuscated and looks like stuff you must fix,
whereas the real nuggets can be hidden in the noise.

Often running without -v can help considerably.

So, here goes, comments inline

Despite what it looks like all this is mere information.
Two separate things result in different version of Qt being pulled into
the problem solution. And it's exactly the form you'd expect.

The first chunk is really saying that icu-56.1 is the most recent
version and all other things being equal, that's the one portage would
install. The second chunk is saying that qtcore-4.8.7-r1 requires
icu-55.1 (not the most recent), so portage spews forth heaps of junk to
helpfully let you not figure it out.

What portage really should say is more like:

Most recent version of icu (icu-56.1) not installed due to these
requirements:
qtcore-4.8.7-r1 requires icu-55.1

Ignore the multiple OMG! bangs before all of the above output

This is the expression portage needs to install based on dependencies,
most recent version, maskings, and your USE flags. It's informational.

This is the actual problem, According to the ebuild, if you set
USE="kde", then you also need USE="qt4". Your USE has qt5 enabled, and
that's the problem.

Presumably, mtl does not yet support KDE with Qt5

And this is the helpful gigantic USE expression, all of which must be
satisfied to install mlt. The bit above this shows just the part that is
problematic, so this is also informational. Note

I am quite happy with KDE4 - presently using KDE 4.3.5. I still have

here or there that I use on a rare occasion that are still KDE3 
based...may be...and no, I don't plan on using KDE Sunset Overlay[1]


Any how...I'm wondering what the best method to remove KDE3.5 safely is:

1) Just leave it and may be it'll just get removed?

2) Found this entry on removing it
http://linuxized.blogspot.com/2008/10/how-to-unmerge-kde-3-packages-if-their.html 



But nothing registers as a 'dup' even though qlist does show a lot of 
KDE 3.5.10 packages installed. (Yeah, I'd need to modify the line to 
ensure it doesn't remove KDE 4.3.5).


3) Gentoo KDE4 guide suggests a method, but it seems to be more 
related to removing KDE entirely...

http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/desktop/kde/kde4-guide.xml


If you keep your world file (/var/lib/portage/world) tidy, simply 
deleting all lines with KDE3 packages and running emerge -a --depclean 
will take care of it.


You *do* keep your world file tidy, don't you? :P




That would be the easiest method.  If you use the kde-meta package like 
I do, just remove the one for KDE 3 and let --depclean do its thing.  It 
should get all of it.


If you want to keep something tho, you need to add it to the world file 
first and then run --depclean.  That way it will keep the program(s) you 
want and the things they depend on but remove everything else.  This 
will save you from having to reinstall those packages.  You may even 
have to get them from the overlay at that point.  So don't uninstall 
something you want to keep.


If you have the drive space, you can leave it there for a while longer 
tho.  Just keep in mind that there are no security updates or anything 
like that.  If you add the overlay, you will get a few updates at least.

 According to the error message sys-power/powermgmt-base is getting
 pulled by sys-apps/apmd and sys-power/pm-utils by kde-base/powerdevil.
 If you use ACPI then there is probably no need in having APM daemon
 installed. Add -t to your emerge command and check what package depends
 on apmd.

dev-qt/qtchooser isn't installed on my system. Some days ago I wanna

qtchooser) gives me so much blockers that I decided to wait until the

I'm puzzled:  I have kde-plasma/kwallet-pam-5.8.6 installed, but it will *not* 
start kwalletd5.  Bear in mind though, I do not run a full plasma desktop.

Running Krusader:5 and trying to connect to a remote system starts kwalletd5 
fine, but running kmail:4 it does not.

I think both kwallet:4 and knotify:4 should have been retained as dependencies 
until all kde:4 packages are removed from portage.  I can think why knotify 
should be in world, since it ought to be a dependency for kdepim-
meta/kdepimlibs/kdepim-runtime, all of which are I have installed here.

Why should they be in world? I prefer to only have in world,

  media-plugins/gst-plugins-alsa
  media-plugins/gst-plugins-esd

That's interesting - why did those packages show up? 
media-plugins/gst-plugins-alsa is a dependency of 
media-plugins/gst-plugins-meta, and -meta is in world:

$ grep meta /var/lib/portage/world 
dev-java/metadata-extractor
media-plugins/gst-plugins-meta
x11-themes/metacity-themes

Strange.

Ah! Multiple versions again. gst-plugins-alsa was there

  Because KDE itself might be huge. But once loaded the apps are pretty
  small - because they reuse code. kmail does not have its own html
  engine. It does not matter where you type your text etc pp.
 
   Sorta like Internet Explorer in Windows.  It loads a lot faster and
 lighter than Firefox or Opera.  That's because ie.exe is merely a front
 end to a bunch of libraries that are loaded at boot time, which
 contributes to the boot process taking do long.  Starting ie.exe takes
 hardly any time, because 90% of the app is already loaded.
 
  Overall KDE uses LESS ram then most 'lightweight' solutions. Because
  xtermabiwordsome odd pagerthunderbird don't look so good anymore.
  
  This gem is a couple of years old, but still a worthy read:
  
  http://ktown.kde.org/~seli/memory/desktop_benchmark.html
  
  
  Read it. Seriously.
 
   I don't know how good exmap is, but my personal experience is quite
 different.  Between Fall 1999 and Summer 2007 I had a Dell Dimension
 with a 450 mhz PIII and 128 megs of *SYSTEM RAM* (no not the video card).
 It was actually quite usable to the very end, with Blackbox WM, and
 running a few apps.  Meanwhile, KDE (and GNOME for that matter) would
 take forever to load and make the system crawl after that, even with 1
 or 2 apps loaded.

I remember running Slackware on a Pentium 1 100MHz laptop with 128M RAM.  The 
speed was of course glacial unless I was running only a console with no X.  
KDE would load and run, as long as I didn't push it too much.  Fluxbox was 
more respectable.

In contrast, MSWindows NT4 would load and run better as it was a more light-
footed OS.  MSWindows 3.1 was blisteringly fast and MSDOS, well ...

However, life moves on and with the cost of hardware coming down software has 
moved towards larger, all bells and whistles, DEs.  The change in design 
philosophy from KDE3 to KDE4 made things worse for those of us who do not want 
everything and the kitchen sink thrown in, but still want to use some KDE 
apps.

Thankfully, the move to the KDE meta ebuilds has provided some compensation 
against a full blown monolithic KDE.

Personally, I'm grateful that Linux devs continue to develop exceptional 
software and so I don't have to use MSWindows.  On the other hand I have 
always preferred more lightweight WMs to the full enchilada of KDE and Gnome 
and wish that KDE devs retained the KDE3 design philosophy, or afforded us a 
light(er) option.

PS.  I'm not sure that Linus is using Gnome.  I recall him bitching that the 
Gnome design approach (which unfortunately KDE imitated) was not the right 
direction to evolve linux in.

OK, I had a closer look.  Kernel 4.9.6-r1 is not the problem on at least two 
boxen I just checked - I also tried a Macbook which keeps crashing at boot 
time with this kernel, but that's for another post.

The USB problem is related to the latest updates I ran, which also coincided 
with the kernel upgrade and this put me off the scent.  I booted into 4.4.39 
and the problem was still there on two different PCs.

I also booted into two different desktop managers, Plasma and Enlightenment.  
The problem remained with both of them, whether I used KDE apps to mount the 
USB stick or not.

As I mentioned, when I use pmount on the CLI I can mount the device.  However, 
when I used udisksctl, I got this:

$ udisksctl mount -b /dev/sdb
 AUTHENTICATING FOR org.freedesktop.udisks2.filesystem-mount ===
Authentication is required to mount Crucial Gizmo! overdrive (/dev/sdb)
Authenticating as: root
Password: 

What?!  This comes up with plain users, and users in the wheel group.  This 
makes me think the problem may be polkit related.  These are the packages I 
emerged last weekend:

 As you can see powermgmt-base is on the emerge list, as is pm-utils.  I
 installed kde-meta because my mother-in-law is visiting and she likes
 kpatience and it didn't work anymore with kde-3.5.  Now, how do I
 resolve this block?
 

You cannot have both those packages at the same time.

From the pm-utils ebuild:

$ cat pm-utils/pm-utils-1.2.5.ebuild

[snip]

RDEPEND==sys-apps/hal-0.5.10
=sys-apps/dbus-1.0.0
!sys-power/powermgmt-base

You need to get rid of powermgmt-base somehow or not use pm-utils. The depends 
list for pm-utils is:

$ equery depends pm-utils
 * Searching for pm-utils ...
kde-base/powerdevil-4.3.4 (pm-utils ? sys-power/pm-utils)
net-misc/wicd-1.6.2.2 (pm-utils ? =sys-power/pm-utils-1.1.1)
sys-apps/hal-0.5.14 (laptop ? =sys-power/pm-utils-0.99.3)
a...@nazgul ~/downloads/iso/gentoo $ eix powermgmt-base

So I assume you have KDE4 installed.

What package do you have that wants powermgmt-base? (emerge -t helps find 
this)

If you use /etc/rc.conf to set your desktop (the Gentoo way) then booting
to a console and running startx will give you twm. alternatively, you
could emerge another window manager, such as Fluxbox.

 I'd like to
 practice this before I destroy my system.

I love your optimism :)

  If you emerge kde-meta, you'll have everything that the monolithic kde
  ebuild gave you, just in manageable bite-sized chunks.

 Hmph.  You call 300 separate ebuilds manageable?  I suppose it is if
 you meta them in as a chunk.

It's also manageable in that you can manage what gets installed. You have
the choice of using a meta-package to install everything, or picking
only the apps you want installed. Why install kmail and its dependencies
if you use a different mailer?

 So the payoff is in not recompiling them
 all when one changes?  I guess that's reasonable.  Un-humph.

It certainly makes bugfix and security updates a lot faster.

I've had '-nls' in  make.conf  for a long time with  LANG = en_US.UTF-8 .
The latter allows apps to show Russian, Chinese, Esperanto etc ,

  Your problem is that you are trying to mix them.  That is difficult or

 Quoting [1]: Split and monolithic ebuilds can be mixed freely. The only
 restriction is that a monolithic ebuild can't be installed at the same
 time as a split ebuild deriving from it. There are blocking dependencies
 in the ebuilds that enforce this, so you can do anything emerge allows
 you to do.

Sweet.  I didn't know the Gentoo devs were that cool.  The restriction is 
only logical.

 I'm in favour of removing the monolithic
 ebuilds too though. They seem to cause more confusion than they are
 worth. :)

Agreed.  It's always possible for ebuild developers to depend on the -meta 
package until they can determine what individual libraries/apps/etc. they 
need from it.  Unfortunately, until we get a good confcache-style program, 
emerging the -meta ebuild does take a bit longer than emerging the 
monolithic version.  (Yes, I konw, this time is saved later on when you 
don't have to compile everything again for a later release.)

 Create the conventional addressbooks as files in

Hmm I didn't have any files in there, there were all under 
~/.kde3.5/share/apps/*

I have set up conventional files or directories for all categories in there 
(kmail, addressbook, notes, calendar) but it still tries to start Akonadi.  
/sigh

 In the list of types of resources, there are Akondai related item, just
  don't use those, and kmail will use the file directly.
 
  I have unmerged nepomuke and all related packages have been remerged

 akonadi and nepomuk are not the same thing, not even remotely.

Thanks I know that.

 You can't avoid having akonadi, nepomuk etc pulled in somehow. Just don't
  run them.

Nepomuk is not pulled in here.  Akonadi of course is another matter, because 
of the kdepim hardcoded dependency.

Grateful for any more ideas to make that bloody akonadi give up.  :-)

 Hi all,
   Just what is happening with ebuilds today? At work, I'm in the process

 and it says that I'll need D-Bus, polkit, udev and udisks. I can emerge
 D-Bus with no problems then onto polkit which its wiki says needs D-Bus
 and consolekit.
 
   So I attempt to install consolekit and bingo, there's the avalanche.
 Perl crap everywhere, Samba, MySQL  MariaDB, and I don't even use
 either of these DB's, a battle between LibAV and FFMPEG, what looks like
 all of KDE and oh look, there's vlc along for the ride. Even zlib
 decides it wants to come along but manages to block itself. That many
 files want to come along to the party that I can't Shift PgUp back up
 through my text console to see it all - a text console because I don't
 have any graphics installed yet.
 
   I had a look at the consolekit ebuild and it says that it needs polkit,
 even though the wiki says that polkit depends upon consolekit - going
 round in circles here. So I looked at the polkit ebuild and it looks
 like it needs polkit-kde-agent, which to my untrained eye, probably is
 responsible for this avalanche os stuff - I think
 
   So what do I have to do to not have this avalanche of stuff, so that I
 can emerge pieces bit by bit, so that I can see what's happening. I've
 probably got some of the above slightly wrong, lost in translation
 going from work to home, but the vibe is there. It is so frustrating
 when you sit there and see a massive list of packages, a good proportion
 I don't even want, I'm looking at you MySQL/MariaDB - isn't this due to
 the Akonadi mess, scroll up the screen and it makes no sense as to why
 things are being brought in.
 
   There, I've vented my spleen, any thoughts on how to control this
 beast would be greatly appreciated.

I wouldn't try to install dbus, polkit and the like manually.  These are all 
dependencies of KDE.  Emerge the KDE apps or meta packages you want and let

 see the links above. In short, you are screwed. There is no real remedy
 until Nvidia fixes their broken drivers. Some stuff might help a bit - but
 most of the time one thing gets slightly better and another one a lot
 worse. The only good news: there is nothing wrong with your system.

Well that's good to know at least. The bummer is that I speced this laptop 
based on what I knew about nvidia's stuff. Nothing wrong in that, I was just 
18 months out of date!
