emerge kde 3.5 splitted ebuilds
Desktop, Gentoo December 4th, 2005
Kde 3.5 is masked as ~x86 in current portage. If you dislike to update your whole system to unstable ~x86, you can add the kde packages to /etc/portage/package.keywords, just like this:
for x in `ls -l /usr/portage/kde-base/ | grep ^d | cut -c 52-` ; do echo kde-base/$x ~x86 >> /etc/portage/package.keywords ; done
And you might need to add some other packages to /etc/portage/package.keywords manually:
# echo “sys-apps/pmount ~x86
sys-apps/dbus ~x86
sys-apps/hal ~x86
sys-fs/udev ~x86
app-text/poppler ~x86″ >> /etc/portage/package.keywords
sys-apps/dbus ~x86
sys-apps/hal ~x86
sys-fs/udev ~x86
app-text/poppler ~x86″ >> /etc/portage/package.keywords
Update the world
# emerge -u world
Remove the obsolete kde package to save the disk space:
# emerge -P `cat /var/lib/portage/world | grep ^kde`
