But you can not expect that everybody is running unstable portage so this commands are not available for those running stable. At which version of portage do these feature/options become available? I think I'm going to upgrade to one of the unstable (~) versions of portage to test out these features Since there are several choices: ~2.1.5.6 ~2.2_rc1 ~2.2_rc5 ~2.2_rc6 does it matter which one I use? Use the latest (~2.2_rc6) ? James

A good idea? kde3* and kde4* both work just fine without arts - I have run my machines like that for years now. arts was nothing more than an utter piece of total excrement that never worked properly, the design is buggy, and it causes huge problems with non-kde apps that want to use sound. alsa does all that arts ever did and more. Put USE=-arts in make.conf, remove all custom arts flags from package.use and remove everything with arts in it's name from world.

I just want to state this particular commands are not available if using unstable portage so I would recommend this for stable after cleaning make.conf, package.use and world: emerge --update --newuse --deep --oneshot world emerge -p --depclean revdep-rebuild Sorry if this caused some confusion!

True, but you should run emerge -uavDN world at least. Yes, that's much better than emerge --depclean (which I tried in this instance - with -p - and it offered nothing relevant to losing arts). All good. I always use emerge -uDNv world, personally after a -uDNvp. thx James

It won't until you emerge world with --newuse, because your installed versions still depend on arts. -- Neil Bothwick If at first you don't succeed, bugger. signature.asc Description: PGP signature
