Are there any pkgmerge options or apps that will install dependencies if
needed when installing apps from the RC3 CD?
Also - when I try to install Gnome, it asks for mc. When I try to
install mc it asks for virtual/x11-web-browser. What do I need?
And - when I try to install kde-base it asks for qt-2.2.2 which isn't on
the cd.

You need to install something like netscape which will provide
virtual/x11-web-browser. We're a bit behind in this area (we only have
Netscape 4.75, not 6... and Mozilla M18 I think). If you want, just
edit the ebuild to remove teh virtual/x11-web-browser dependency
and try again.

I just fixed that so that it's dependent on >=qt-2.2.2, which will allow
you to use a newer version.

And we have amaya but I don't know if mc scans for amaya. I downloaded
metscape 6 once but it was
an selfextraciting and autoinstalling binary. Is netscape-6 avaliable as a
tar-ball now? If not I think
we should use mozilla 0.6.

Daniel, is there another way to define the dependencie
>=qt-2.2 <qt-2.3 ?

I had already installed the netscape package but it was still no go with mc. After I installed Mozilla-M18, mc installed properly.

I took a look in the netscape ebuild and found that there was a missing PROVIDE line. I fixed this.
