1 I discovered by accident that I have KDE 3.3, 3.4, & 3.5 all installed
2 at the same time.
3 I wanted to clean out 3.3 (at least) and tried emerge -aC
4 =kde-base/kde-3.3.0 which of course just did this pseudo package, not
5 the containing packages.
6 I also tried emerge --clean kde-base/kde but this says nothing to
7 remove, even though 3.4 & 3.5 are still present:
8 [D] kde-base/kde
9 Available versions: (3.5) 3.5.2 3.5.5
10 Installed: 3.4.3(3.4)(17:19:35 01/18/06)(-accessibility)
11 3.5.5(3.5)(02:50:53 12/10/06)(-accessibility)
12 Homepage: http://www.kde.org/
13 Description: KDE - merge this to pull in all
14 non-developer kde-base/* packages
15
16 I got rid of 3.3 by doing eix -I kde & removing each sub-package
17 manually, I just think I must be missing an easier way.
