[gentoo-user] QT4 monolithic vs split ebuilds

[Graham Murray]

I have had qt-4.4.2 split ebuilds (and kde4) installed since the
beginning of November. After syncing and running 'emerge -auDvN @world'
this evening, it is trying to pull in the monolithic qt-4.3.5 and
complaining about a slot conflict. I have tried adding the 't' flag to
see what is pulling in qt-4.3.5 and masked the package. But when
rerunning emerge, it showed an already installed package as pulling in
qt-4.3.5.

Have the qt-4.4.2 split ebuilds been depreciated? They have not been
masked (only the 4.4.0 packages are masked, not the 4.4.2 ones).

I have the same problem, and I can't find the folder
/usr/portage/profiles/default/linux/x86/2008.0. Maybe this is the
cause of the problem, rsync deleted it, can you confirm?

No. The directory is there, but the only files in it and the desktop
sub-directory are 'parent'.

I synced today and the problem is gone!
