You'd better check your setup. 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? 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. No, not unmasked but keyworded. We've figured it out by now. It was because KDE4 was getting masked automatically by EAPI2 which stable portage doesn't support. As soon as portage was upgraded, no masking anymore due to EAPI and hence KDE4 got pulled-in. Well, I noticed this on mine. I thought I had unmasked KDE 3.5 but after going and looking, I have not. I have portage-2.2_rc16 currently installed and it appears autounmask does not work well with it. This may at some point help the OP but can help me at the moment. How does one unmask ALL the KDE 3 packages but not the KDE 4 stuff? I ask that as in what command would list those to copy to packages.unmask or add them to it. I think whoever writes code for autounmask needs to get a gently nudge. It doesn't seem to like the latest portage. I'm not complaining and I know I am running unstable packages. Just thinking he may not know that his code just got borked. :-O I eagerly await the day one can keyword/unmask kde-meta and it automatically unmasks all its friends. I'm not sure how good that day will be but it is a thought. Dale :-) :-)

You might need to mask media-sound/amarok:4.1 as well, but that's
hardly an hour's work.
On a related note, paludis calculates and lists all blockers at once,

Maybe you should use existing, old portage features: slots.
Add :3.5 to the end of all those kde-base/-starting lines in
package.keywords, and you'll accept unstable from slot 3.5 but not
from 4.1 (current kde4 slot). You probably can use
match/search-and-replace within your favourite text editor to get it
to the end of all those lines without doing it manually.
Your lines will look like this (but with slot 3.5 instead of 4.1):
kde-base/superkaramba:4.1
Yes, that's the way they suggest unmasking stuff when testing out kde4 ... :)

package.mask is a file here, not a directory.
It can also be a directory. See man portage for the details.
/etc/portage/
Any file in this directory that begins with package. can
be more than just a flat file. If it is a directory, then all the files
in that directory will be summed together as if it were a single file.
(and, btw, adapting the above to the case where package.mask is a single
file is very easy)

You could either tack the output to the end of your package.mask with
, or rename the current package.mask, mkdir package.mask, and move
it in there.
Or just copypaste this line:
eix -C kde-|grep \[[IU]\]|awk -F '{print $2 :4.1}'
/etc/portage/package.mask
It does assume that you have eix installed.

I have dozens of packages in package.keywords that look like this: kde-base/kdelibs in which case portage did exactly what you've asked it to. You should've mentioned either which specific versions you're unmasking/keywording or slots. Either way it's not a bug it's a true feature. Now portage wants to install the 4.1 versions of all those. The previous portage did not; I had to tell it to keyword the 4.1 versions if I wanted that. It exhibits proper behavior, what's wrong with that? I'd be surprised if I ran system with blanket keyworded kde builds (no slot or version mentioning) and portage wouldn't suggest KDE4 install. KDE4 is a successor of KDE3 so it's all correct. The fact that you've enabled ~arch builds without consideration for future implications doesn't constitute fault on part of portage, sorry. I would suggest now and in the future either specify slot or version of package you're unmasking unless you *really* know what you're doing. P.S. KDE3 and KDE4 would live happily alongside each other as long as you have USE=kdeprefix specified in /etc/make.conf . -- Dmitry Makovey Web Systems Administrator Athabasca University (780) 675-6245 signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.
