[gentoo-user] Portage wants KDE4, I don't
I decided to give portage 2.1.6_rc1 a try. Now it wants to upgrade my KDE3 to KDE4. I never unmasked or keyworded any KDE4 stuff. Any options other than removing portage 2.1.6_rc1 again?

I do realize that 2.2.x is not 2.1.6_rc1, but what I mean - it must be either a bug in portage or your setup. Find where the problem originates. Do you have ~arch KDE3 ? I suppose you don't run ~arch branch, right? -- Dmitry Makovey Web Systems Administrator Athabasca University (780) 675-6245 signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.

The KDE4 ebuilds need EAPI 2 support in the package manager, portage 2.1.4.5 does not implement EAPI 2, portage 2.1.6_rc1 proabably does (2.2 certainly does). You either need to mask all the kde4 ebuilds, or keyword only the 3.5 SLOT versions. -- Mike Williams

Do you have ~arch KDE3 ? I suppose you don't run ~arch branch, right? I am using portage-2.2_rc15 and I have unstable KDE 3 but nothing KDE 4. I actually tested KDE 4 once and had to unmask all the KDE 4 stuff to get it. I agree, there is something fishy about his/her setup. I think that if this happened to anyone else, someone would have spoke up by now. I'll sync in a little bit and test mine to be sure tho. Dale :-) :-)
