Yes, that's my situation: I also upgraded to Glibc 2.4 & KDE 3.5.3 ; IIRC the only additional problem was a tiny glitch with Krusader, which wasn't really related to GCC 4.1.1 . > Running testing, most packages wb recompiled within a month anyway. I have a lot of "testing" packages, which run without problems. A lot of outstanding bugs seem to affect only a few special users. Yet again, Gentoo should make a 4th category by making "stable" = "server" & splitting "testing" into "newly unmasked" & "desktop-ready": many "testing" packages today are in fact desktop-ready, ie the remaining bugs will be rare & easy to recover from. > I wanted to see if the 'kdehiddenvisibility' flag made any difference What was your experience ?
