Upgrading to kde fails because it seems to rely on xft being installed. The thing is that there already is an XFT implementation in Xfree 4.3.0, so xft can't be installed any more (makes no sense either)
emerge -U kde fails on xft not being thre, emerge -UDp kde lists it as a blocked requirement: [blocks B ] >=x11-base/xfree-4.3.0-r2 (from pkg x11-libs/xft-2.0.1-r2) [ebuild N ] x11-libs/xft-2.0.1-r2 [ebuild U ] kde-base/kdeedu-3.1.5 [3.1.4] [ebuild UD] x11-libs/openmotif-2.1.30-r3 [2.2.2-r1] [ebuild U ] kde-base/kdebase-3.1.5 [3.1.4] [ebuild U ] kde-base/kdenetwork-3.1.5 [3.1.4] [ebuild U ] media-libs/svgalib-1.9.17-r3 [1.4.3-r4] [ebuild U ] app-text/docbook-xsl-stylesheets-1.62.4 [1.62.0] [ebuild N ] app-text/docbook-xml-dtd-4.2 [ebuild U ] sys-libs/lib-compat-1.3 [1.2] [ebuild U ] media-libs/xine-lib-1_rc2 [1_beta12] [ebuild N ] dev-perl/libvorbis-perl-0.04 [ebuild U ] app-cdr/cdrtools-2.01_alpha23 [2.01_alpha14] [ebuild U ] kde-base/kdemultimedia-3.1.5 [3.1.4-r1] [ebuild U ] kde-base/kdeaddons-3.1.5 [3.1.4] [ebuild N ] dev-tcltk/itcl-3.2-r2 [ebuild N ] dev-libs/libmal-0.31 [ebuild U ] kde-base/kdepim-3.1.5 [3.1.4] [ebuild U ] kde-base/kdegames-3.1.5 [3.1.4] [ebuild U ] kde-base/kdetoys-3.1.5 [3.1.4] [ebuild U ] media-gfx/sane-backends-1.0.12-r2 [1.0.12-r1] [ebuild U ] kde-base/kdegraphics-3.1.5 [3.1.4] [ebuild U ] kde-base/kdeadmin-3.1.5 [3.1.4] [ebuild U ] kde-base/kdeutils-3.1.5 [3.1.4] [ebuild U ] kde-base/kdeartwork-3.1.5 [3.1.4] [ebuild U ] kde-base/kde-3.1.5 [3.1.4] USE="X gtk2 qt kde -alsa arts pda sse 3dnow mmx scanner xosd acpi dvd cups mozilla ssl mysql" I had truetype in USE, but also tried without. -- ______________________________________________________________________ Guy Van Sanden http://unixmafia.port5.com Registered Linux user #249404 - September 1997 ______________________________________________________________________ -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
