Re: [gentoo-user] Uncle: qt-*:4 dependencies/blocks preventing world update
I think this problem has now gone away on my machine. I cannot be sure what it was that helped. I removed all qt-* packages, and some of the problematic packages mentioned as depending on the earlier versions. After running # emerge -utv world, I noted some dependencies, and may have removed one or two. Then I ran the install. After a couple of interations, all *seems* to be well. Thank you for the advice, Alan Davis

Re: [gentoo-user] Uncle: qt-*:4 dependencies/blocks preventing world update
I finally was able to emerge -NuDav world, and revdep-rebuild passed the system as clean. However, when I try emerge -uDav world again, that same message, or some permutation of it, is presented. I have set the flags dbus qt3support qt3 qt4 and so on. So that's not it. I unmerged a number of the involved packages, that looked something like qt-*. I did this just before running the more or less successful emerge -NuDav world. A week ago, I ran emerge -e world. Perhaps I need to do this again. I've read a plethora of postings, such as a sticky post on the Gentoo Forums, and some of these emails, as well as googling, and tried several things. When this all began, about three weeks ago, or longer, I noticed problems with hplip python I have python 3.1 and python 2.6 installed, Some advice was seen to make sure eselect is pointing to 2.6. I also ran python-updater. A new work week is starting, my system is responding normally, I will avoid KDE4, and type this all shakes itself out, over the next week or so. Thank you to those who have helped. Good luck to others. Alan

Not sure where to go with this.
When I ran emerge world the re-installation of more than 250 packages was
begun.

Did you try the most straightforward (albeit lengthy) approach:
unmerge all of Qt
emerge world and let portage figure out what it wants to put back
How can I do this?
There is seldom a good reason to have Qt packages in world (dev packages
excepted) and recent changes in the ebuild have caused lots of mutual
blockers. When I first went through this, I saw that almost all qt-*
packages
would be rebuilt on my machines. It seemed easier to restart with a clean
slate. I got a blocker notice which said I had to enable various flags,
which
I did and the merge completed flawlessly.
I will try to uninstall all qt-* packages. I'd like to uninstall KDE4
also.

We need to establish why qt-4.5.2 packages are being pulled in instead of
4.5.3
Please run emerge -avuNDt world and post that (snipping irrelevant bits as
appropriate).
You might have left a qt-*-4.5.2 package installed by mistake, or some other
package is hard-coded to require a qt-4.5.2 version.
The solution for the first is to uninstall the package you missed, the
solution for the second is to unmerge the offending package and remerge it
(but recent portage should be taking care of that all by itself). Either way
emerge -t will provide clues.

Re: [gentoo-user] Uncle: qt-*:4 dependencies/blocks preventing world update
I forgot to mention:
After rebuilding all of qt with this amount of changes, be prepared to rebuild
all of KDE-4 as well. Not doing this often results in weird behavviour that is
impossible to track down, hence the large elog warning in all the qt-*
ebuilds.
