In that case you can replace --clean (or --prune) with --unmerge. You had a |

look at [1]? |

The original error was because you didn't have akode installed. /var/db/pkg |
| 9 |
contains only the packages you have installed whereas /usr/portage contains |
| 10 |
everything. equery --list outputs only what you have installed by default. |

Finally you should know that because kde is slotted you do not have to remove |
| 13 |
kde-3.4 before installing kde-meta-3.5. But you have to remove it before |
| 14 |
installing kde-meta-3.4. Monolithic and split packages block each other only |
| 15 |
within the same slot. |

In general it helps to tell us what you want to achieve from the beginning. It |
| 18 |
enables us to tell you what you want to do rather that what you think you |
| 19 |
want to do. ;) |
