Maybe, but determining parts that are not affected and emerging them |
| 10 |
(don't forget --oneshot) will reduce the package list and make it easier |
| 11 |
to see what is going on. |

We don't know what this does better to post the command that script runs. |
| 16 |
It appears that command includes -v, better to run without it to avoid |
| 17 |
useful information being buried in verbose irrelevancies. |

This appears to be the main culprit, I remember having to set |
| 23 |
USE="minimal" for kde4-l10n when switching to KDE 5 some months ago. Set |
| 24 |
that and the list of blockers will reduce to a manageable level, or even |
| 25 |
zero if you're lucky! |
