I was unable to upgrade to the latest stable kdelibs (3.5.5-r8 -> 3.5.5-r9) with the compiler stating something like: /usr/qt/3/bin/uic: symbol lookup error: /usr/qt/3/bin/uic: undefined symbol: _ZNK7QString3argExii The same error showed when I tried to rebuild my current version of kdelibs and for other packages (e.g. vym). After some search I found out that this was caused by the app-pda/qtopia-desktop-bin-1.7.0 package, which I recently emerged. After um-emerging the upgrades went fine. I suggest at least masking the qtopia-desktop-bin package, though a full fix would be better of course. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge =app-pda/qtopia-desktop-bin-1.7.0 2. emerge kde-base/kdelibs Actual Results: /usr/qt/3/bin/uic: symbol lookup error: /usr/qt/3/bin/uic: undefined symbol: _ZNK7QString3argExii Expected Results: Normal compilation.
Okay, I have 2.2.0 installed, and haven't had any issues compiling KDE libs. I've updated both ebuilds (1.7.0 and 2.2.0) for testing here, so you can either try the 2.2.0 version and see if that fixes your problem, or wait a little while and then try the new ones. Since it seems to cause random build failures, then the updated ebuilds will be bumped up a rev, however, I haven't yet reproduced it here.
Okay, 1.7.0 still borks, but 2.2.0 lets kdelibs build fine here. I've removed the older one and stablized 2.2.0, which was overdue anyway. Reopen if you still have issues.
