Mmm... I don't know from where I got this FLAGS, but I'm quite sure I
used some program/script from portage...

Anyway, I did the mod, and remerged akregator... It still doesn't work.

Well, I moved /home/arnau/.kde/share/apps/akregator to .old. I thinks
this is enough, isn't it?
It did not work, neither.

This is an option I considered as I saw 114 packages "broken"... now,
with CFLAGS mod, I also think this is a good option. 
And, well, I could let my system recompiling all the weekend...

432

some x11-libs, lot of perl, kde-base... etc...
Defintely, I'll recompile my system.
