Am I missing the reason you don't just upgrade to a version of KDE 3.3.2 which *is* in Portage? It's not as if kdelibs has radically changed its contents between revisions of kdelibs-3.3.2-r-whatever: eix kdelibs * kde-base/kdelibs Available versions: 3.3.2-r10 3.4.1-r1 3.4.1-r2 3.4.2 3.4.2-r1 3.4.3 [M]3.5_beta1-r1 [M]3.5.0_beta2 [M]3.5.0_rc1 Installed: 3.4.3 Homepage: http://www.kde.org/ Description: KDE libraries needed by all kde programs The current revision of the 3.3.2 series is -r10, an upgrade from -r7. I suppose you could unmerge -r7 first, but frankly I don't see why it wouldn't suffice to simply do an emerge -ua** kdelibs and then re-run revdep-rebuild. Has the overwhelmingly obvious reason that this is not doable somehow escaped me (always possible)? Holly -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
