Howdy, |

kde-4.3 is now unmasked for ~x86. Whooooop! |
4 |
|
5 |
But it is looking like a non-trivial upgrade. :( |
6 |
|
7 |
When I installed kde-4.2, I followed the advice of unmasking portage |
8 |
and using sets. Also followed the recommendation to use -kdeprefix. |
9 |
Further I removed kde-3.5 and added a mask on kdelibs-3.5 to help keep |
10 |
3.5 off of the system. |
11 |
|
12 |
So for the kde-4.3 upgrade, it looks like this is what will be |
13 |
necessary: |
14 |
|
15 |
1) grab the sets again from the kde-testing overlay and put them in / |
16 |
etc/portage/sets (assumption is to do a replace). |
17 |
2) unmerge kde-4.2 using: emerge --unmerge @kde-4.2 |
18 |
3) merge kde-4.3 using: emerge -av @kde-4.3 |
19 |
4) recustomize kde as the ~/.kde will not be migrated |
20 |
|
21 |
Am I on the right track? |

TIA, |
