Yes, it has kde-apps/kdesdk-kioslaves, which I dully emerged, but this did not change matters. :-( FYI these are the packages that depclean had unmerged two days ago: 1464445881: *** emerge --ask --verbose --quiet-build=n --depclean 1464445881: >>> depclean 1464445930: === Unmerging...

I have set plasma desktop as my profile, so I was hoping that I would not have veered too far off the recommended USE flags: [8] default/linux/amd64/13.0/desktop/plasma * Thank you for your help with this, I'll wait for another round of KDE updates in the hope that this will be fixed soon. -- Regards, Mick
