Is that wrong? I'm assuming this is correct since portage seemed to accept them in turn. Now when I came to last entry emerge kept repeating itself. I checked, package.keywords was saved after the last entry These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies / !!! All ebuilds that could satisfy ">=kde-base/kdepasswd-4.0.0:kde-4" have been masked. !!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request: - kde-base/kdepasswd-4.0.0 (masked by: package.mask) /usr/portage/profiles/package.mask: # Ingmar Vanhassel <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> (16 Jan 2008) # Mask KDE 4.0.0 for testing. This release of KDE 4 will not be unmasked. # KDE 4 guide: http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/desktop/kde/kde4.xml For more information, see MASKED PACKAGES section in the emerge man page or refer to the Gentoo Handbook. (dependency required by "kde-base/kdm-4.0.0" [ebuild]) The above keeps coming up over and over. So, I'll have to leave it here until I get more info. -mw ____________________________________________________________________________________ Looking for last minute shopping deals?
