Thanks a lot for the detailed explanation. |

Do you know if there's a way or going to be a way to handle the split |
| 8 |
ebuilds so that reemerging or unemerging a split ebuild will reemerge or |
| 9 |
unemerge the corresponding packages? It seems like the ebuilds are only |
| 10 |
intended to make installing kde easier, which they do, but it doesn't |
| 11 |
make handle uninstalling or reinstalling a split ebuild very easy at |
| 12 |
all. Like, if I had kde 3.4 installed and upgraded to 3.5 and no longer |
| 13 |
need 3.4, I can't just do 'emerge -C kde-meta-3.4', or something similar |
| 14 |
if it's the installed with the split metapackage. Or if I just wanted to |
| 15 |
remove some split ebuild, like say kdenetwork, but leave the rest, I |
| 16 |
couldn't do 'emerge -c kdenetwork-meta' to uninstall the related packages. |

Basically, my concern is that how KDE is installed is quite easily |
| 19 |
handled, but uninstalling or reinstalling is not equally as easy, at |
| 20 |
least in some aspects. |

I hope I explain myself well enough, and thanks for your response. |
