I did:
ps aux | grep kmix
root 31977 0.0 0.0 6184 576 pts/2 S+ 11:19
0:00 grep --colour=auto
All that is(was) running was the grep process...
I think I found the problem, but need a little guidance.
All prepared. Starting rebuild
emerge --oneshot --pretend --with-bdeps y app-editors/xemacs:0
app-office/akonadi-server:0
app-text/libspectre:0
dev-db/libdbi-drivers:0
dev-lang/php:5.3
dev-libs/apr-util:1
dev-libs/cyrus-sasl:2
dev-libs/redland:0
kde-base/nepomuk:4.4
media-gfx/imagemagick:0
x11-libs/qt-sql:4
These are the packages that would be merged, in order:
Calculating dependencies... done!
emerge: there are no ebuilds built with USE flags to
satisfy ">=kde-base/kdelibs-4.4.
5[aqua=,-kdeprefix,semantic-desktop]"
One of the following packages is required to complete your request:
kde-base/kdelibs-4.4.5-r2 (Change USE: +semantic-desktop)
(dependency required by "kde-base/nepomuk-4.4.5" [ebuild])
(dependency required by "kde-base/nepomuk:4.4" [argument])
Obviously I can do what it is advising me to do: add
semantic-desktop to the USE flag in either the make.conf file
or per package in packeage.use........... or such.
What are the caveats of semantic-desktop and nepomuk?
Can I just delete these and go my merry way, or
where should I read up on these kde4 (pillar) requirements?
Googling, I found this thread:
http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-799299-start-0.html
Code:
echo ">=kde-base/kdelibs-4.4.0 semantic-desktop" >> /
etc/portage/package.use
I'm now running kde-4.4 and everything seems fine. My understanding
of what I've done is that kdelibs is now set up to support any
application which thinks it wants semantic-desktop on while all those
applications with optional support for semantic-desktop know not to use
semantic-desktop.
Guidance and suggestions are warranted, methinks....
