Three systems so far, one x86, two amd64. Every single one failed to emerge kde 4.2 cleanly in a single run, but subsequently now has it. What I mostly did was just restarted emerge -- and it would have the packages in different order and pass the problem spot a few packages later without the problems showing up any more. Having kde 4.1 stuff on the background cluttering up my system might have had an effect on this. I don't know if I ran into your specific problem, just restarting emerge fixed most stuff for me. I did run into a hell of a problem with Xorg after successfully emerging kde 4.2, but that was due to the upgraded unstable xorg- server 1.5.3 evdev not liking my xorg.conf -- and me not having cared to explore the evdev-stuff before being thus forced to. No keyboard and no mouse makes using kde 4.2 even worse than kde 4.1 *with* keyboard and mouse. ;) -- Arttu V.
