I also tried commenting out the USE statement in make.conf and I still get the same blockers. If you really don't want KDE 4.3 (which is currently stable on amd64, and being stabilized on x86), you need to mask it in package.mask; to do so, you may use this file from the kde-testing overlay: http://git.overlays.gentoo.org/gitweb/?p=proj/kde.git;a=blob_plain;f=Documentation/package.unmask/kde-4.3;hb=HEAD If you download that file, and place it in your /etc/portage/package.mask/ directory, then you shouldn't have any more issues. Thank you for the rapid response, Jonathan. I was under the impression that 4.3 was still hard masked. I'd rather have 4.3, so I'll give it a go. I'm closing this bug since 4.3 is going in without a problem. Thanks again Jonathan. Fixing bug resolution. As Jonathan explained, one will need to mask all newer versions of KDE when trying to use an earlier version of KDE. |
