I tried to update to KDE 3.2 using ~x86. kdelibs-3.1.4 blocked qt.
So, unmerged kdelibs-3.1.4 and emerged the new qt. The install of 3.2
failed at some point, so I installed 3.1.5. Now, kde won't start. The
Nvidia splash screen flashes 3 or 4 times, then I'm dropped into
console. I checked /etc/X11/Sessions and it has the proper items,
3.1.1a and 3.1.5. No matter which I put in /etc/rc.conf, I get the
same result. X works, but kde doesn't. I'm stumped as to where else
to look. Any advice appreciated. Thanks.
You didn't by any chance update gcc as well?
No, I have 3.2.3-r1. And glibc 2.3.2-r1.
Anyway, the problem probably isn't KDE, but XFree. (you could try and see
whether startx works) Check through the XFree log (/var/log/XFree86.0.log)
startx works, as does xdm. I can call up Mozilla, e.g. The XFree log shows no errors.
I unmerged all instances of KDE I had, as well as qt. Then I emerged kde-3.1.5, which pulled down qt 3.2.3-r1. After 13 hours of compiling, KDE still doesn't work. The kdm.log doesn't show any errors. I don't know if it's relevant, but ldconfig shows:
ldconfig: /usr/qt/3/lib/libscintilla.so.3 is not a symbolic link
Well, it isn't - it's just a file. That directory has libscintilla.a, .so.3, so.3.0 and so.3.0.0. None of them are links. I really, really do not want to reinstall Gentoo. I hope someone has a clue, a pointer, suggestion, anything.
