I don't think there is a need to sync. qt-core, qt-gui,qt-sql, and |
| 47 |
qt-opengl just must all have either qt3support on or off, mixing them |
| 48 |
with different USE flag settings won't work. Also, kde4-base.eclass |
| 49 |
seems to require qt3support on, so there isn't much choice about |
| 50 |
configuration here ... OP just hasn't gotten the whole mile, yet. |
| 51 |
|
| 52 |
But you are right: OP should just enable qt3support in /etc/make.conf |
| 53 |
-- or arduously list out at least the four qt-* packages with |
| 54 |
qt3support enabled under his choice of files/dirs under /etc/portage |
| 55 |
if he is a micromanagement-masochist. |
| 56 |
|
| 57 |
About his pondering on whether Gentoo is right for him and about |
| 58 |
Gentoo having been more and more work to maintain recently -- I |
| 59 |
wholeheartedly agree. I just haven't found anything better, yet. |
