Hello
I am writing to you in order to know if there's a way to install both 4.54 and
4.5.85 releases of kdelibs on the same computer.
The problem is that : I want to use the last powerdevil, which enable better
use and recognition of my laptop battery. It rely on kdelibs 4.5.85.
But I want to keep the current release of kontact 4.5.4, which is quite stable
and usable for reading mails and other pims stuffs.
Hm. Looking at the ebuilds for those packages, I don't see the version numbers
you mention:
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 9351 Dec 14 13:59 kdelibs-4.4.5-r1.ebuild
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 9306 Sep 13 15:05 kdelibs-4.4.5.ebuild
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 9356 Nov 3 09:30 kdelibs-4.5.3.ebuild
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 9353 Dec 2 13:16 kdelibs-4.5.4.ebuild
Are you using a portage overlay for kde?
Anyway, the older version of kontact may compile and run normally if you
emerge it with the newer version of kdelibs installed. I would try it as
an experiment before trying to install two different library versions.
