That was a good idea, one that I ought to have thought of but didn't. |

To recap, the only version of qt installed is qt-3.3.8-r4, and equery d |

=x11-libs/qt-3.3.8-r4 returns 160 packages, all wanting =x11-libs/qt-3*. |

Emerge seems to think I have a version4.* of qt installed, but I haven't |

apart from the split e-builds I've just installed as above. |

I could try removing qt-3.3.8-r4, but first I'd have to back up the whole |
56 |
system against the probability of being unable to recover from the |
57 |
resultant smashing of KDE 3.5. |

Thanks for your help so far; I think though that I'll continue building the |
66 |
clean system as well in case your optimism proves unfounded. At least with |
67 |
two systems I can pursue both lines independently. |
