Have you considered simply not installing them at all? If you don't want |
11 |
apache, cups, syslog-ng and bind you don't take any special steps, you simply |
12 |
don't emerge them. |

Unless of course you do want kde:3.5 (I don't recall if you mentioned that or |
15 |
not). |

OT: I really like kde:4 myself, but it's such a different product to kde:3.5 |
18 |
that I honestly feel it's official name should have been kde4. If the kde devs |
19 |
had done that, your issue would simply never have happened. This versioning is |
20 |
causing problems for many people, you are not the only one wanting to avoid |
21 |
kde:4 |
