I'm not sure what I did, it's so long ago. But I did try to follow |
| 17 |
directions to undo my monolithic setup using the Gentoo docs on the topic. |
| 18 |
I probably messed up, but that begs the question: why did it only show up |
| 19 |
now, a few years later. It's not as if I haven't rebooted in the meanwhile; |
| 20 |
I do it from time to time to update kernels. |

It may be that I'm not using metas, but just emerged things I needed, and |
| 23 |
let the dependencies do the rest. |

Hmmmmm. The dime just dropped, because I did my first depclean fairly |
| 26 |
recently, and dalek1967 just posted that kde-3.5 is part of kdebase-startdke |
| 27 |
on his system, and I don't have that package installed. It's just that I |
| 28 |
thought I rebooted after the depclean just to check things. (I had a fresh |
| 29 |
backup of the root partition at that point). |
