I didn't want to wear out my welcome. publicly, but one more question.
Using --update and --newuse, I just reinstalled qt last night. This
morning, after someone suggested eix, I ran that, and got this:
june ~ # eix -e qt
[I] x11-libs/qt
Available versions:
(3) 3.3.4-r8 3.3.8-r4
(4) 4.3.2-r1 ~4.3.3 ~4.3.4 [M]~4.4.0_beta1

Description: The Qt toolkit is a comprehensive C++ application
development framework.
I haven't been able to find any syntax to actually use slots, so I needed
to ignore all the slot stuff until I get some slot info (the man page for
both emerge and portatge are silent on slots, beyond one very slim
paragraph in emerge, which gave no syntax). This morning, when I did the
cut/paste of your command, it came back and asked me:
[ebuild R ] x11-libs/qt-3.3.8-r4 USE="cups doc examples ipv6 opengl
- -debug (-firebird) -gif -immqt -immqt-bc -mysql -nas -nis -odbc -postgres
- -sqlite -xinerama" 0 kB
Total: 1 package (1 reinstall), Size of downloads: 0 kB
Would you like to merge these packages? [Yes/No]
What the heck does it mean to merge these?
BTW, I did spend some time googling the answers, can't find anything
written on slot usage yet.
