Well, I put -semantic-desktop in my USE line and ran emerge -uvDN world. It recompiled several things and told me it had some @preserved-rebuild packages to build. So, I ran that and got this little message: r...@smoker / # emerge @preserved-rebuild -a These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies ... done! emerge: there are no ebuilds built with USE flags to satisfy ">=kde-base/kdelibs-4.3.2:4.3[semantic-desktop,-kdeprefix]". !!! One of the following packages is required to complete your request: - kde-base/kdelibs-4.3.2-r3 (Change USE: +semantic-desktop) (dependency required by "kde-base/nepomuk-4.3.2" [ebuild]) (dependency required by "@preserved-rebuild" [argument]) r...@smoker / # So I guess we can't really have the USE flag disabled either. Neato ! < sarcasm there > Now to change my USE line back again and run emerge -uvDN world. Dale :-) :-)
