Sorry to reply to my own post but it seems that my world file had all of the kde |
26 |
programs listed with ":4.5" |
27 |
I don't know how this has happened but I removed the :4.5 from the lines and |
28 |
now if I run an emerge I get the following:- |
29 |
|
30 |
Total: 268 packages (24 upgrades, 12 new, 228 in new slots, 4 reinstalls, 230 |
31 |
uninstalls), Size of downloads: 424,321 kB |
32 |
Conflict: 459 blocks |
33 |
|
34 |
Would you like to merge these packages? [Yes/No] |
35 |
|
36 |
Why would 228 packages be installed in new slots? |
