8 Thanks for this. The link from kde.org goes to a page
9 dated Dec 11 2007 which doesn't mention v4.0.
10
11 I did what it said using the recommended(Split)
12 method, then this:
13
14 localhost heathen # emerge -avD kde-base/kde:kde-4
15
16 These are the packages that would be merged, in order:
17
18 Calculating dependencies /
19 !!! All ebuilds that could satisfy
20 "kde-base/kde:kde-4" have been masked.
21 !!! One of the following masked packages is required
22 to complete your request:
23 - kde-base/kde-4.0.0 (masked by: package.mask, ~x86
24 keyword)
25 /usr/portage/profiles/package.mask:
26 # Ingmar Vanhassel <ingmar@g.o> (16 Jan 2008)
27 # Mask KDE 4.0.0 for testing. This release of KDE 4
28 will not be unmasked.
29 # KDE 4 guide:
30 http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/desktop/kde/kde4.xml
31
32
33 For more information, see MASKED PACKAGES section in
34 the emerge man page or
35 refer to the Gentoo Handbook.
36
37 Further down the page it suggests I emerge
38 kdebase-startkde
39
40 localhost heathen # emerge -avD
41 kde-base/kdebase-startkde
42
43 These are the packages that would be merged, in order:
44
45 Calculating dependencies /
46 !!! All ebuilds that could satisfy
47 ">=x11-libs/qt-4.3.3:4" have been masked.
48 !!! One of the following masked packages is required
49 to complete your request:
50 - x11-libs/qt-4.3.3 (masked by: ~x86 keyword)
51 - x11-libs/qt-4.4.0_rc1 (masked by: package.mask, ~x86
52 keyword)
53 /usr/portage/profiles/package.mask:
54 # Caleb Tennis <caleb@g.o> (19 Dec 2007)
55 # Christian Faulhammer <opfer@g.o>
56 # Mask qt-4.4 package while testing them in portage
57 # Plus packages depending on them
58
59
60 For more information, see MASKED PACKAGES section in
61 the emerge man page or
62 refer to the Gentoo Handbook.
63 (dependency required by
64 "kde-base/kdebase-startkde-4.0.0" [ebuild])
65
66 Which leads to this:
67
68
69 localhost heathen # emerge -avD =qt-4.3.3:4
70
71 These are the packages that would be merged, in order:
72
73 Calculating dependencies /
74 !!! All ebuilds that could satisfy "=qt-4.3.3:4" have
75 been masked.
76 !!! One of the following masked packages is required
77 to complete your request:
78 - x11-libs/qt-4.3.3 (masked by: ~x86 keyword)
79
80 For more information, see MASKED PACKAGES section in
81 the emerge man page or
82 refer to the Gentoo Handbook.

84 >From the Handbook:
85
86 "When you want to install a package that isn't
87 available for your system, you will receive this
88 masking error. You should try installing a different
89 application that is available for your system or wait
90 until the package is put available."
91
92 What is this other version? I don't suppose I have to
93 "wait" since it's already here, apparently.
