How did this end up in the lzma/xz thread?
Well, this ain't working as well as I would like. I'm getting a lot of
failures. Something like this:
* subversion check out start -->
* repository: svn://anonsvn.kde.org/home/kde/trunk/KDE/kdesdk
svn: Network connection closed unexpectedly
* ERROR: kde-base/kate-9999 failed:
* subversion: can't fetch to
/usr/portage/distfiles/svn-src/kdesdk/kdesdk from
svn://anonsvn.kde.org/home/kde/trunk/KDE/kdesdk.
Why are you trying to install the svn version?
Well, I was hoping I could get a newer version of KDE 4 that would
actually DO something. lol
I may just go back to a more stable setup.
Like the standard KDE 4 in portage?
Which doesn't do what I need for it to be usable?
Oh well. I just wish they had supported KDE 3 longer cause KDE 4 is
just not ready for what I do. I get a screen full of crap about KDE 3
being masked when updating too. Sort of bugs me.
Add the kde-sunset overlay and all that will disappear. KDE3 still works
on Gentoo, it's just not supported in portage any more.
I already have kde-sunset and I still get those messages. I don't know
if it is because it is leaving portage or if it is even being removed
from kde-sunset. I just know I get them and it increases each time I sync.
I know this, KDE has left a really bad taste in my mouth with how they
handled this release. They should have supported KDE 3 until KDE-4.5,
or at least KDE 4.4 was out and stable. Right now, I can't go a day in
KDE 4. I'm always running into something that doesn't "work" yet.
This isn't as bad as hal but it's dang close.
