Did qca-tls emerge properly yet? No, but this bit is new: Configuring qca-tls ... Verifying Qt 3.x Multithreaded (MT) build environment ... fail Unable to find Qt mkspecs. Please set QTDIR manually.

I don't want to make a bad situation worse. localhost ~ # qt3to4 --help Tool for porting Qt 3 applications to Qt 4, using the compatibility library and compatibility functions in the core library. Usage: qt3to4 [options] Infile, [Infile], ... Infile can be a source file or a project file. If you specify a project file, ending with .pro or .pri, qt3to4 will port all files specified in that project. Options: -hDisplay this help. -alwaysOverwrite Port all files without prompting. -rulesFileSpecify the location for the rules file. -IAdd directory to the list of directories to be searched for header files. -disableCppParsingDisable the C++ parsing component. -disableBuiltinQt3Headers Do not use the built-in Qt 3 headers. -missingFileWarnings Warn about files not found while searching for header files. -strict Be stricter when selecting which tokens to replace.

It emerges Qt with a version lower than 4. The backslash \ escapes the , because the shell would take it as redirection character. [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ -- emerge -p qt-4 bash: qt-4: No such file or directory You could also write emerge -a 'qt-4'. In a shell script, the escaping with \ or '' is not necessary.

How do v4 and v3 differ? If I'm in the midst of -uD world would one be preferable? No worries, you can have both at the same time. See the [ebuild NS] output above? This tells that this package is new. If it would downgrade your Qt-4, you would see [ebuild UD]: something is updated to another version, and this will be a downgrade. The S tells this package is slotted, meaning that different versions may co-exist. I would emerge Qt-3. You may continue your world update with emerge --resume afterwards. In case another package fails, you can add the --skipfirst option to emerge, this will skip it and continue with the rest of the world update. This may, however, introduce later problems, if another package needs the failed one. Wonko -- gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org mailing list

Be sure you have a proper Qt 3.x Multithreaded (MT) build environment set up. One possible reason is that you don't have libqt-mt.so.3 installed in /usr/qt/3/lib/.
