26 Using kde-meta doesn't have to pull in anything unstable. The reason
27 for kde-meta is for those who want to install everything KDE and get it

31 If you don't use unmask/keywords, then emerging kde-meta will just
32 install the things you have not installed yet. It could be that a
33 package that is needed is not yet installed. Then again, maybe
34 something is muted. ^_^ Maybe this will explain it better:
