Fresh install using stage3 i686 2006.0. It's primarily a stable install, with the following in package.keywords to use the latest kde: >=kde-base/arts-3.5.1 ~x86 >=kde-base/kdelibs-3.5.1 ~x86 >=kde-base/kdebase-3.5.1 ~x86 >=kde-base/kdepim-3.5.1 ~x86 >=kde-base/kdegames-3.5.1 ~x86 >=kde-base/kdeartwork-3.5.1 ~x86 >=kde-base/kdenetwork-3.5.1 ~x86 >=kde-base/kdegraphics-3.5.1 ~x86 >=kde-base/kdetoys-3.5.1 ~x86 >=kde-base/kdeutils-3.5.1 ~x86 >=kde-base/kdewebdev-3.5.1 ~x86 >=kde-base/kdemultimedia-3.5.1 ~x86 >=kde-base/kdeaddons-3.5.1 ~x86 >=kde-base/kdeedu-3.5.1 ~x86 >=kde-base/kdeadmin-3.5.1 ~x86 >=kde-base/kde-3.5.1 ~x86 >=sys-kernel/ck-sources-2.6.15 ~x86 Doing an emerge kde, kde-base 3.5.2-r1 fails within the kate subdirectory on meinproc with a segmentation fault. Running meinproc through ltrace found the error in libxslt. Libxslt was 1.1.15. Emerging libxslt with ~x86 to get 1.1.16 resolved the problem. Looks like kde-libs needs a depend on libxslt-1.1.16 instead of 1.1.15. 1.1.15-r1 may fix it too. I saw a patch in that ebuild for a seg fault bug. Since .16 fixed it, I didn't bother trying .15-r1 too though. I just did an emerge sync (making sure this wasn't already fixed) and found kde 3.5.3 is available now too. It doesn't have a depend on 1.1.16 either, so I'm betting it probably has the same problem. Kdelibs 3.5.3 still requires only 1.1.15 too. I doubt it's needed for this bug report, but here's my emerge --info in case it's relevant: Portage 2.0.54 (default-linux/x86/2006.0, gcc-3.4.4, glibc-2.3.5-r2, 2.6.12 i686) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.12 i686 Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 2.80GHz Gentoo Base System version 1.6.14 distcc 2.18.3 i686-pc-linux-gnu (protocols 1 and 2) (default port 3632) [enabled] dev-lang/python: 2.4.2 dev-python/pycrypto: [Not Present] dev-util/ccache: [Not Present] dev-util/confcache: [Not Present] sys-apps/sandbox: 1.2.12 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.59-r6 sys-devel/automake: 1.4_p6, 1.5, 1.6.3, 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r3, 1.9.6-r1 sys-devel/binutils: 2.16.1 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.22 virtual/os-headers: 2.6.11-r2 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CBUILD="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-march=pentium4 -mtune=pentium4 -fexpensive-optimizations -Os -pipe -msse -msse2 -mmmx -mfpmath=sse -fforce-addr -fomit-frame-pointer -frerun-cse-after-loop -frerun-loop-opt -falign-functions=4 -maccumulate-outgoing-args" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/share/config /var/qmail/control" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/eselect/compiler /etc/gconf /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-march=pentium4 -mtune=pentium4 -fexpensive-optimizations -Os -pipe -msse -msse2 -mmmx -mfpmath=sse -fforce-addr -fomit-frame-pointer -frerun-cse-after-loop -frerun-loop-opt -falign-functions=4 -maccumulate-outgoing-args" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoconfig ccache distcc distlocks sandbox sfperms strict" GENTOO_MIRRORS="ftp://ftp.ussg.iu.edu/pub/linux/gentoo ftp://gentoo.osuosl.org/pub/gentoo http://gentoo.oregonstate.edu http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/distributions/gentoo" LANG="C" MAKEOPTS="-j6" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage" SYNC="rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gUSE="x86 X a52 acpi alsa apache2 apm arts asf audiofile avi berkdb bitmap-fonts bluetooth browserplugin bzip2 cdparanoia cli crypt cups curl dga dri dvd eds emboss encode esd expat fam ffmpeg font-server foomaticdb gdbm gif gpm gstreamer gtk gtk2 hal idn ieee1394 imlib insecure-savers isdnlog java joystick jpeg kde kdeenablefinal latin1 lcms libg++ libwww lirc mad mikmod mmap mmx mmxext mng motif mozilla mp3 mpeg mysql ncurses nls nptl nsplugin offensive ogg oggvorbis opengl oss pam pcmcia pcre pdf pdflib perl png ppds pppd python qt quicktime readline real reflection rtc samba sdk sdl session sndfile spell spl sse sse2 ssl tcpd threads tiff truetype truetype-fonts type1-fonts udev unicode usb v4l v4l2 vorbis wifi win32codecs xine xml xml2 xmms xorg xscreensaver xv xvid zlib userland_GNU kernel_linux elibc_glibc" Unset: CTARGET, INSTALL_MASK, LC_ALL, LDFLAGS, LINGUAS, PORTAGE_RSYNC_EXTRA_OPTS, PORTAGE_RSYNC_OPTSentoo-portage"
