Using --update and --newuse, I just reinstalled qt last night. This morning, after someone suggested eix, I ran that, and got this: june ~ # eix -e qt [I] x11-libs/qt Available versions: (3) 3.3.4-r8 3.3.8-r4 (4) 4.3.2-r1 ~4.3.3 ~4.3.4 [M]~4.4.0_beta1 {accessibility cups dbus debug doc examples firebird gif glib immqt immqt-bc input_devices_wacom ipv6 jpeg mng mysql nas nis odbc opengl pch png postgres qt3support sqlite sqlite3 ssl tiff xinerama zlib} Installed versions: 3.3.8-r4(3)(16:16:12 03/14/08)(cups doc examples ipv6 opengl -debug -firebird -gif -immqt -immqt-bc -mysql -nas -nis -odbc - -postgres -sqlite -xinerama) 4.3.2-r1(4)(16:02:00 03/14/08)(cups dbus doc examples jpeg opengl png ssl tiff zlib -accessibility -debug -firebird -gif - -glib -input_devices_wacom -mng -mysql -nas -nis -odbc -pch -postgres - -qt3support -sqlite -sqlite3 -xinerama) Homepage: http://www.trolltech.com/ Description: The Qt toolkit is a comprehensive C++ application development framework. I haven't been able to find any syntax to actually use slots, so I needed to ignore all the slot stuff until I get some slot info (the man page for both emerge and portatge are silent on slots, beyond one very slim paragraph in emerge, which gave no syntax). This morning, when I did the cut/paste of your command, it came back and asked me: [ebuild R ] x11-libs/qt-3.3.8-r4 USE="cups doc examples ipv6 opengl - -debug (-firebird) -gif -immqt -immqt-bc -mysql -nas -nis -odbc -postgres - -sqlite -xinerama" 0 kB Total: 1 package (1 reinstall), Size of downloads: 0 kB Would you like to merge these packages? [Yes/No] What the heck does it mean to merge these? BTW, I did spend some time googling the answers, can't find anything written on slot usage yet. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.4 (FreeBSD) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFH2/WRz62J6PPcoOkRAlSFAJ0f92ebjel3ubKzQ9pwCU3Uzp7m+QCfcPy3 MzrzTPDaDVapdP78SDOxmRw= =kT8J -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org mailing list
