 I just upgraded to the latatest portage version rc23 or similar. Added the
set file linked in the KDE 4.x guide in /etc/portage/sets/kde. also unmasked
all the packes also linked in the same guide I see a set called kde, but
still i can't install kde because i get blocks and non-existant sets... so
better i will wait to instll kde and also use the new version of portage.
