On kdebase I actually backported the missing deps for xkb to the old versions, too. The added deps are anyway RDEPEND, and all of them are added (because I'm the first one not having xorg-x11 installed :P). chris@dragan.name 2006-02-19 00:57:24 0000 Please reinvestigate the solution. I'm doing a fresh install and I've just installed modular X. But I can't install KDE, because kdebase-startkde wants to pull in virtual/x11, which in turn wants to downgrade X to 6.8. This happens because packages xmessage, xset and xsetroot weren't pulled in. I have to install them manually in order for the RDEPEND rule to be satisfied, otherwise portage wants to take the other path with virtual/x11. chris@dragan.name 2006-02-19 01:01:23 0000 OK, forget it. Sorry for trouble. I had these packages keyword-masked. After unmasking everything's alright.
