[Description Joe Kallar (RETIRED) 2003-03-26 14:28:14 UTC]

I have tried to emerge kde, and receive the following error:


ultra root # emerge kde -pv

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Did you specifically include the value svga in USE= line in your /etc/make.conf?

[Comment 2 Joe Kallar (RETIRED) 2003-03-27 10:17:00 UTC]

Yes I have:

Removing 'svga' from make.conf gives me a seemingly normal emerge list:

ultra root # emerge kde -pv

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Calculating dependencies ...done!
[ebuild  N   ] kde-base/kde-env-3-r2  
[ebuild  N   ] media-libs/lcms-1.09

...

So I should remove 'svga' then?

svgalib doesn't build on non-x86 hardware.
