it seems that the default ebuild for ksambaplugin installs itself to /usr/share and /usr/lib/kde whereas kde installs to /usr/kde so the ebuild doesn't work out of the box Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.emerge kde 2.emerge ksambaplugin 3.try to find ksambaplugin in kde without any luck Actual Results: try to find ksambaplugin in kde without any luck Expected Results: ksambaplugin should be installed and available on the kde menu emerge info gives: Portage 2.0.48-r1 (default-x86-1.4, gcc-3.2.3, glibc-2.3.2-r1) ================================================================= System uname: 2.4.20-ck6 i686 AMD Duron(tm) processor GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://nihil.ict.ru.ac.za http://zazu.ru.ac.za http://zion.ru.ac.za ftp://ftp.is.co.za/linux/distributions/gentoo ftp://trumpetti.atm.tut.fi/gentoo/ ftp://gentoo.linux.no/pub/gentoo/ ftp://www.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/distributions/gentoo" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /var/qmail/control /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb /usr/kde/3.1/share/config /usr/share/config" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/env.d" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="" USE="x86 oss 3dnow avi crypt encode gif jpeg libg++ libwww mikmod mmx mpeg ncurses nls pdflib png quicktime spell truetype xml2 xmms xv zlib alsa gdbm berkdb slang readline arts svga java X sdl gpm tcpd pam ssl perl python esd imlib oggvorbis gtk qt kde motif opengl aalib acpi acpi4linux amd apache2 artswrappersuid clamav dga directfb dvd evms2 fbcon flash gtk2 lids lirc oav radeon samba tcltk tiff usb Xaw3d xosd -apm -cups -gnome" COMPILER="gcc3" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-march=athlon-xp -O3 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer" CXXFLAGS="-march=athlon-xp -O3 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer" ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86 ~x86" MAKEOPTS="-j2" AUTOCLEAN="yes" SYNC="rsync://rsync.rucus.ru.ac.za/gentoo-portage" FEATURES="sandbox ccache"
These are the right directories for it to install to, all kde apps and libs go into /usr. I just tried it, and it installed just fine. It's available through the Control Center as a module - did you check there? make sure your KDEDIRS env var has "/usr" in it and if all else fails, rebuild your system cache: "kbuildsycoca"
