74 I wonder if something is trying to use a old config file.  You may want
75 to use checkrestart, needrestart or something to check on that.  I still
76 have checkrestart here but needrestart should pick this up.  If it is
77 that, logout, got to a console and restart X.  I sometimes just go to
78 the boot runlevel, make sure no KDE/sddm processes are still running by
79 killing anything that shouldn't be running and then go back to default
80 runlevel.  KDE is bad to leave processes running. 
81
82 If that does nothing, try revdep-rebuild and see if it catches
83 anything.  Maybe a emerge -uaDN world will help too. 
84
85 Lots of options.  When I did this a good while back, it got a bit dirty
86 before I got things cleaned out.
