The blocks do not exist until you try to emerge something that will block with |
| 11 |
them. Sort of like how my wife does not object to me having a girlfriend |
| 12 |
until I actually go out and try to get one :-) |

You ask portage to install gnome, it does not trigger blocks, so everything |
| 18 |
works fine. |

In what way does this differ from what you expect to happen? |

Emerge world updates everything you already have and/or need to have. You |
| 26 |
don't have kde and don't need kde and haven't told portage to install it. So |
| 27 |
it doesn't block. |
| 28 |
|
| 29 |
Do you realise that kde is a monolithic package and the corresponding split |
| 30 |
ebuild is kde-meta? |
