I tried a few with no joy, too, and now I've done as you suggest. |
16 |
Thanks for that -- I'd thought portage would complain if I did that. |

The delay may have saved me a little bit of pain. Before re-syncing |
19 |
today, something I didn't understand was preventing okular being |
20 |
rebuilt after switching to the desktop/plasma profile, but not now. |

22 |
I'm one of the nuts who has USE="-*", and I've finally hit a situation |
23 |
where it causes considerable headaches; plasma 5 requires a lot of |
24 |
per-package USE stuff, all handled in the profile thanks to careful |
25 |
work from the devs. Instead of trying to tackle it package-by-package, |
26 |
for now I've just copied the profile's package.use to |
27 |
my /etc/portage/package-use. I think this will be too much for me to |
28 |
maintain as plasma 5 and the profile change, so when I get some time |
29 |
I'll be ditching USE="-*" in order to rely on the profile. My fellow |
30 |
USE="-*" loonies who will have to move to plasma 5 might want to |
31 |
consider ditching USE="-*" first. |
