Hello, |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
Confidence is high that I've mucked_up this upgrade to |
| 4 |
kde-4.2.1. |
| 5 |
|
| 6 |
I was content to leave the system at 3.5.9 and while |
| 7 |
I was messing around, I guess I triggered a kde 4.2.1 install |
| 8 |
(I had started the upgrade and decide to wait some weeks ago.) |
| 9 |
|
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
Long story short, I'm now running kde-4.2.1 [OK] |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
I moved my world file to a backup so as to avoid all |
| 14 |
of those dependency issues. It worked pretty well. |
| 15 |
However, now I'm adding the packages back a few at a |
| 16 |
time and lots of stuff calls for kdelibs-3.5.9-r1. |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
Where I'm confused is can I have 2 versions |
| 20 |
of kdelibs installed at the same time? |
| 21 |
My gut tells me NO? |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
What am I missing. Kde-4.2.1 is up and running. |
| 25 |
Although I have not extensively tested it, I can |
| 26 |
run konqueror and seamonkey and many other apps. |
| 27 |
just fine. |
| 28 |
|
| 29 |
So what I think I need to do (again) is |
| 30 |
|
| 31 |
Mask kdelibs 3.5.x completely? |
| 32 |
(syntax suggestions here for package.mask are welcome) |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
emerge -C kde-3.5.9* (can I do this?) |
| 35 |
emerge --depclean -a |
| 36 |
|
| 37 |
and then watch closely what I emerge? |
| 38 |
??? |
| 39 |
|

|
| 41 |
obviously confused, |
| 42 |
