28 You can start by giving the relevant information, like what exactly related to
29 kde is in world?. Chances are you only have KDE there, and emerge will
30 probably want to nuke all but the latest SLOT. Common problems with KDE:
31
32 Put 'kdeprefix' in USE and rebuild
33 Put KDE:3.5 in world and recheck.
34
35 This last one often needs to be redone recursively to get everything in world
36 that needs to be there. I've heard that autounmask helps with this
