Hello everyone,
Lots of people have complained that the new kdelibs-3.1-r1 and kdebase-3.1-r1
don't work for them when kde 3.0.x is installed as well: kde 3.1 shows the
kde 3.0.x splashscreen and then hangs.
This is due to a misunderstanding: for things to work, you need to install the
latest 3.0.5a revisions as well, namely kdelibs-3.0.5a-r2 and
kdebase-3.0.5a-r1. Unfortunately portage isn't smart enough to include
upgrades of older slots in the world update list. So kde 3.0.x must be
upgraded manually to these newer revisions, or things will break.
A quick fix for the problem if you don't want to spend hours compiling right
now is to edit /etc/env.d/65kdelibs-3.0.5a (or 65kdelibs-$ver for any older
3.0.x version $ver). Remove the line that says KDEDIRS=/usr/kde/3. Run
env-update and restart kdm.
I apologize for the problems this must have caused. I hope this will be a
swift fix.
