Oh dear!  Have you confirmed these on different machines - just in case?

I have removed pambase from world (how did that end up in there?) and
rebuilt PyQt4 with sql and webkit, as well as net-libs/libgadu with
threads that came up when I tried to run update world.  Now I have a
lorry load of KDE4 packages wanting to be installed:

238 packages (3 upgrades, 131 new, 103 in new slots, 1 reinstall, 2
uninstalls), Size of downloads: 484,302 kB
Conflict: 2 blocks

I will probably have to face this sooner rather than later.  What's
the best way to do this?  Uninstall *everything* from KDE3.5 and then
launch into this KDE4 upgrade marathon, or just emerge KDE4 in new
slots?
