<title>Cleaning up</title>
<section>
<title>Removing old KDE versions</title>
<body>
<p>In order to minimize issues, it is best to begin with a clean enviroment. You will need to uninstall any beta or 4.0.X release (this is needed if you are moving from any other overlay and in particular if you plan to use the -kdeprefix use flag - FHS install). Two possible ways or removing old KDE 4 installations are:</p>
<pre caption="Unmerging commands">
# <i>emerge -C @kde-4.1 @kdebase-4.1</i> <comment>(only if you are comming from the kdesvn-portage overlay)</comment>
# <i>emerge -C $(qfile -C -q -e /usr/kde/%PREFIX%)</i> <comment>(replace %PREFIX% with your kde version, eg. 4)</comment>
</pre>
<pre caption="Unmerging commands (only applicable if you are moving from other overlay)">
# <i>cd /path/to/old/overlay/</i>
# <i>emerge -C $(find ./ -name \*.ebuild |sed -e "s:.ebuild::" -e "s:./::" |awk -F'/' '{print "="$1"/"$3}')</i>
</pre>
<p>As a final step you should remove the old overlay so that there are no conflicts with the KDE ebuilds. You should remove the old unmask and/or keyword data too.</p>
<note>Don't forget to run depclean in order to uninstall any dependant packages.</note>

<title>Unmasking/Keywording</title>
<section>
<title>Using the bundled package.keywords/kde file</title>
<body>
<p>The KDE 4.1 ebuilds available from the kde-testing overlay are not masked (the masks in package.mask have been updated accordingly) and so there is no need to unmask them. If you are running the stable tree you will need to keyword the ebuilds, otherwise skip this step. For those running the stable tree in Gentoo:</p>
<note>This is the recomended way of keywording the KDE packages.</note>
<p>This overlay provides an appropriate package.keywords file that can be used in your package.keywords file/directory. You can find this file in "Documentation/package.keywords" directory. Copy it to the correct location "/etc/portage/package.keywords/" (preferably make a symlink to it), or add it to your "/etc/portage/package.keywords" file.</p>
<pre caption="Adding the file to the package.keywords directory">
# <i>cd /etc/portage/package.keywords</i>
# <i>ln -s /path/to/overlay/Documentation/package.keywords/kde .</i>
</pre>
<pre caption="Adding the file to the package.keywords file">
# <i>cd /etc/portage/</i>
# <i>cat /path/to/overlay/Documentation/package.keywords/kde >> package.keywords </i>
</pre>
</body>
</section>
<section>
<title>Creating the file from the packages in the overlay</title>
<body>
<pre caption="Adding keywords to the package.keywords directory">
# <i>cd /path/to/our/overlay/</i>
# <i>find ./ -name \*.ebuild |sed -e "s:.ebuild::" -e "s:./::" |awk -F'/' '{print $1"/"$2}' >> /etc/portage/package.keywords/kde4x</i>
# <i>cd /usr/portage/</i>
# <i>find ./x11-libs/qt-* -type d |sed -e "s:./::" |awk -F'/' '{print $1"/"$2}' | uniq >> /etc/portage/package.keywords/kde4x</i>
</pre>
<pre caption="Adding keywords to the package.keywords file">
# <i>cd /path/to/our/overlay/</i>
# <i>find ./ -name \*.ebuild |sed -e "s:.ebuild::" -e "s:./::" |awk -F'/' '{print $1"/"$2}' >> /etc/portage/package.keywords</i>

# <i>find ./x11-libs/qt-* -type d |sed -e "s:./::" |awk -F'/' '{print $1"/"$2}' | uniq >> /etc/portage/package.keywords</i>
</pre>
<note>There are some dependencies which require keywording that are not in this list. Keyword them as necessary.</note>

<title>Installation</title>
<section>
<title>The new kdeprefix use flag</title>
<body>
<p>The new kdeprefix use flag allows users to choose between an FHS compliant install (-kdeprefix) or a slotted install in the KDE prefix (+kdeprefix).</p>
<p>If kdeprefix is disabled (default) KDE is installed into the FHS compliant location, i.e. /usr. That means that all of the files are put under /usr. This is the desired behavior for most users. The drawback of the FHS compliant install is that it will not be possible to have more than one minor version of KDE side by side (previous behaviour), e.g. KDE 4.1 and 4.2.</p>
<note>This restriction does not apply to KDE 3.5 (different eclasses) or live versions (as they will continue to be installed in the /usr/kde/${live-slot}. You can have a non kdeprefix version of KDE 4.1, KDE 3.5 and a live version of KDE installed on the same system.</note>
<p>If kdeprefix is enabled then KDE is installed into /usr/kde/${SLOT}, which allows you to install KDE 4.1, 4.2, 4.3 etc in /usr/kde/4.1, /usr/kde/4.2, /usr/kde/4.3 for example.</p>
<warn>If you want to move between kdeprefix and -kdeprefix (or vice-versa), it is recommended that you unmerge KDE and then emerge it with the modified flag. If this is not done KDE installations can have trouble finding certain libraries/plugins.</warn>
</body>
</section>
<section>
<title>Using sets</title>
<body>
<p>One of the new features provided by portage 2.2 is sets.</p>
<p>Sets allow the KDE team to provide a complete replacement for the monolithic packages, with the added bonus that users may choose to remove from the default sets any packages they do not want. Look in the sets directory for a list of the sets provided by the KDE team.</p>
<p>Amongst others, there are sets for each KDE tarball - @kdeaccessibility, @kdeadmin, @kdeartwork, @kdebase, @kdeedu, @kdegames, @kdegraphics, @kdemultimedia, @kdenetwork, @kdepim, @kdesdk, @kdetoys and @kdeutils. There is also a set of sets (the equivalent to the old kde-meta package) @kde, and the same for specific versions @kde-3.5 and @kde-4x, a set for KDE deps @kdedeps, a set for optional packages @kdeoptional and a set for the split qt packages @qt-split.</p>
<p>One can install the complete KDE by doing <e>emerge -av @kde</e>. The specific version equivalents are very useful to uninstall an old version, e.g. <e>emerge -C @kde-3.5</e>, or to reinstall all packages from a specific version, e.g. <e>emerge -av1 @kde-4x</e>. Advanced features, like removing any unwanted packages from a set, will be supported in a future release of portage - you can read more about it in <uri link="http://planet.gentoo.org/developers/genone/2008/09/29/more_extensions_to_package_set_support">Marius Mauch (genone) blog</uri>. This code has already been commited to Portage's svn and will allow to reinstall all installed packages of a set with emerge -av @<set>/@installled or to have a /etc/portage/sets/kdebase-unwanted set and then run <e>emerge -av @kdebase-@kdebase-unwanted</e>.</p>
<p>We strongly recommend that you install the @kdebase set in order to get a full KDE 4 session. The example below would install the kdebase set and the kdegames set.</p>
<pre caption="emerge KDE">
# <i>emerge @kdebase @kdegames</i>
</pre>
<note>If you want to check the list of sets known to Portage run the following: <e>emerge --list-sets</e></note>
<note>All KDE 4.1 ebuilds require portage-2.2_rc11 or greater, which has implemented everything in the new EAPI 2 specification used in these ebuilds.</note>
</body>
</section>
<section>
<title>KDE meta packages</title>
<body>
<note>This method is provided to ease the transition to the new sets. There will no meta ebuilds for KDE 4.2.</note>
<pre caption="emerge meta packages">
# <i>emerge kde-meta:4.1</i></pre>
</body>
</section>
</chapter>
<chapter>
<title>Configuration</title>
<section>
<body>
<p>KDE stores its configuration files in the <e>~/.kde</e> directory by default. In the Gentoo ebuilds this has been changed in KDE 4.1 to allow for better integration of KDE 3.5 and 4.1 when using the same user account. If you export KDEHOME this behaviour will be overridden. It is strongly recommended that you do not do this. KDEHOME will make KDE 3.5 and 4.1 use the same configuration directory which is not usually desired.</p>
<p>KDE 3.5 uses <e>~/.kde</e> and the default FHS (-kdeprefix) KDE 4.1 uses <e>~/.kde4</e>. If you install KDE 4.1 using the kdeprefix use flag then the configuration directory will default to <e>~/.kde4.1</e>, <e>~/.kde4.2</e> etc. The advantage of this is that KDE 3.5 and 4.1 can be run from the same user account without clobbering settings. Moving backwards in version, i.e. 4.1 to 3.5, is not supported.</p>
<p>Settings are not migrated by default. If you want to attempt to migrate your settings you should copy your old configuration directory to the new location before logging in. For example,</p>
<pre caption="copy configuration directory">
$ <i>cp -r ~/.kde ~/.kde4</i></pre>
<p>If this is successful then your settings should all be migrated. If not it is possible to log out and remove the new configuration directory to start with a clean configuration directory.</p>

<p>The desktop icon can be replaced with the standard folder icon using the following command.</p>

<section>
<title>x11-themes/gtk-engines-qt</title>
<body>
<p>This ebuild should be used if you want your gtk applications to use a similar them to the Qt/KDE applications. Configuration can be found in systemsetings->Apperance->GTK Styles and Fonts.</p>

<title>x11-themes/gtk-engines-qtcurve</title>

<p>Another approach to making gtk/qt3/qt4 applications looks the same. You must also install x11-themes/qtcurve-qt4 for this to work with Qt 4/KDE 4 applications.</p>

+When you encounter a bug, this should always be reported. The best thing you

+ If the bug is a runtime issue (crash or wrong package behaviour), it should

+ then please install it first, and if you are able to reproduce, then go ahead
+ and file the upstream bug. If you are not able to reproduce, then please report
+ the bug only to Gentoo, with all that information.

+ If the bug is a build failure, a depedency error or a general ebuild bug, it

<p>
KDE 3 is no longer maintained by upstream, with 3.5.10 being their last release.
Also, most KDE 3 applications aren't maintained any more, as they already have
-been or are currently being ported to KDE 4. The Gentoo KDE Team, provides both
-KDE 3 and KDE 4 ebuilds for the base KDE and for various applications, and
-supports a side by side full desktop installation of KDE 3 and 4, including misc

-Currently KDE 3.5.10 is masked for all architectures, as it is being removed
-from Portage.
+In Gentoo, KDE 3 ebuilds have been removed from the portage tree, and they have
+been moved to the user-maintained overlay called <uri
+link="http://git.overlays.gentoo.org/gitweb/?p=proj/kde-sunset.git;a=summary">kde-sunset</uri>
+(available in layman). Keep in mind that this overlay is user-maintained only, and current KDE
+team members have no responsibility about its status. If you are interested in co-maintaining
+it, you can send an email to <mail link="scarabeus" /> asking for
+commit access. If you want to report a bug about this overlay, please don't file a bug in
+bugzilla. Instead, use the <uri
+link="http://archives.gentoo.org/gentoo-desktop/">gentoo-desktop</uri> mailing list.
+Instructions on how to subscribe can be found <uri

-The KDE team has been cleaning up the various KDE 3 applications by removing
-them from the tree, as they are too old, broken and unmaintained, and by
-dropping arts support (with major help from Media/Video teams). When this task
-is finished, we are going to drop arts from base KDE 3 as well.

-While using KDE 3 is not recommended due to security and bug concerns, if you

-<uri link="https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=243991">Broken compositing on NVidia/TwinView</uri>
-<uri link="https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=247144">Plasma folderview bug</uri>
-<uri link="https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=245491">Dolphin tooltips bug, fixed in 4.5.1</uri>
+<pre caption="Installation of KDE SC 4.5.1 using meta packages">
+# <i>emerge -av kde-meta</i> <comment>(contains all of KDE modules)</comment>
+# <i>emerge -av kdebase-meta kdegames-meta</i> <comment>(installation of chosen modules only)</comment>
+</pre>
-There are also numerous Plasma system tray and notification area glitches and one KTar (kdelibs) regression fixed for 4.5.1. Releasing KDE SC with known bugs would only cause duplicates on bugs.kde.org.
+<note>KDE SC 4.5 will never go stable though. Reasons are explained on <uri
