It's not completely obvious from Dirk's post (what he said is completely accurate though), but kde-3.5.10 will not receive monolithic ebuilds (dev decision). If you want kde-3.5.10, there is only one way to do it - Unmerge your existing kde monolithic packages Rememerge the new kde split packages There's a good migration guide at gentoo.org, called "Migrating to KDE split ebuilds" or some such. A quick search will find it for you. > > Francisco > > On Fri, Jun 12, 2009 at 5:58 PM, Dirk Heinrichs wrote: > > Am Freitag 12 Juni 2009 22:45:49 schrieb Francisco Ares: > > > And how do I tell if an ebuild is monolithic or not? > > > > The monolithic ones install larger parts of KDE, and usually have the > > same names as the original source packages offered at KDE.org. > > > > The split ebuilds, well, split those packages into their individual > > applications, so you have ebuilds for konqueror (which is also part of > > kdenetwork) or kmail (kdepim).
