Hemmann is likely correct in his guess. You say they /should/ be in your |
| 11 |
world file. It's easy enough to check. Note that dependencies don't get |
| 12 |
added to the world file, only stuff emerged on the command line. Perhaps |
| 13 |
some of these weren't in the world file for that or some other reason? |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
In theory, however, even then, with the --deep/-D parameter you said you |
| 16 |
used, it should grab them. An exception would be dependencies where a |
| 17 |
specific version is depended, not a "greater-than or equal to" version. |

One thing with KDE -- it's slotted. Anything KDE-core is normally |
| 20 |
slot-constrained, and just upgrading certain KDE items to the 3.5 won't |
| 21 |
remove the 3.4 in a different slot. To do that, try equery belongs |
| 22 |
/usr/kde/3.4, which will tell you the packages still using that dir, so |
| 23 |
you can unmerge them. (equery is part of gentoolkit.) When that equery |
| 24 |
returns nothing, if the dir is still there, you should be able to remove |
| 25 |
it by hand. Note that a few things may be broken at this point, but an |
| 26 |
emerge -uD world should fix most of them, and what it doesn't, a |
| 27 |
revdep-rebuild should catch. |
| 28 |
|
| 29 |
Once you've unmerged kdelibs-3.4, a critical dependency of everything else |
| 30 |
in the dir should be gone, and portage should be forced to try to merge |
| 31 |
the latest version of each. /That/ should trigger the contact/kmail |
| 32 |
upgrade that was missed, earlier, along with any other kde-base/ packages |
| 33 |
that may have been missed. |
