Using kde-meta doesn't have to pull in anything unstable.  The reason 
for kde-meta is for those who want to install everything KDE and get it 
all in one command.  I use kde-meta here since KDE is my primary desktop 
and I wanted to get the whole she bag, pardon the pun.  lol

If you don't use unmask/keywords, then emerging kde-meta will just 
install the things you have not installed yet.  It could be that a 
package that is needed is not yet installed.  Then again, maybe 
something is muted.  ^_^  Maybe this will explain it better:

root@fireball / # eix kde-meta
[I] kde-base/kde-meta
      Available versions:  (4) 4.6.3 4.6.5 (~)4.7.1 (~)4.7.2{tbz2}
         {accessibility aqua kdeprefix nls oldpim sdk semantic-desktop}
      Installed versions:  4.7.2(4){tbz2}(03:44:51 AM 10/07/2011)(nls 
semantic-desktop -accessibility -aqua -oldpim -sdk)
      Homepage:            http://www.kde.org/
      Description:         KDE - merge this to pull in all split 
kde-base/* packages

root@fireball / #

That make sense?  Cents?  Whichever. lol

Ma'am.  No hat tonight.
