If you have KDE 3.3.x installed, you can simply <c>emerge kde-meta</c> to |
| 94 |
install the 3.4.x split ebuilds without disturbing your existing installation. |
| 95 |
</p> |
| 96 |
|
| 97 |
<p> |
| 98 |
If you have the KDE 3.4.x monolithic ebuilds installed, you must unmerge them |
| 99 |
before emerging the split ebuilds. However, this process can be done for each |
| 100 |
monolithic ebuild in turn; you don't have to unmerge all of KDE at once. |
| 101 |
</p> |
| 102 |
|
| 103 |
<p> |
| 104 |
If you're in doubt, remember there are blocking deps in place between each |
| 105 |
monolithic ebuild and the split ebuilds derived from it. Portage won't allow an |
| 106 |
illegal state to be created, so any emerge or unmerge it allows is OK. |
