Hi folks,

after the painful and time-consuming creation of /etc/portage/package.unmask for KDE 4, <emerge --pretend --verbose "=kde-base/kde-meta-4.0.0" tells me:
[blocks B     ] <kde-base/kdebase-3.5.7-r6 (is blocking
kde-base/kdelibs-4.0.0)

I do not have emerge kdebase-3.5.7 but kdebase-3.5.8. The3refore, I cannot
unemerge 3.5.7. How can I work around this?

For future reference, check out autounmask.  I found out about it the
other day.  I have not used it yet but I'm hopeful it works.

Also, there is a thread on the forums about this, I think you have to
have 3.5.8* version to do this.  Not sure why tho.  Isn't KDE 4.0
slotted?  Can't you have 3.5 AND 4.0 installed and select which version
you want to log into?

Autounmask looks to work,
but some packets with ~86 I think need manual check.
