I run a stable (no ~x86) and have never had a trouble with kde. Or odd gnome related stuff (like evolution). What is in your USE list? I doubt it is the length of it. Maybe some things are incompatible? I have never heard of such a thing. But I have never had cause to go looking. Unless you have been mixing ~x86 with non-~x86 builds, I do not see how a dependency can be missing. If you are new to Gentoo, and you do not know the packages effected, mixing ~x86 in some of the ebuilds is documented to not be a good activity. I use it only very occasionally, and only when I have no choice. My more preferred method is to make a copy of the desired package's ebuild script in a local ebuild directory tree (which emerge supports) and remove the ~ from the x86, and then see if it will build with what I have installed, all without the ~x86. Many times it will. Most often, the ~x86 is only for the target package itself, not the dependencies. This way I do not screw up the libraries on my system for no good reason. -- Roger Oberholtzer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsub/Pause/Etc -> http://mail.linux-sxs.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/general
