The package structure/organization was changed completely, so emerge gets confused. It knows it can't install libxfce4util because a bunch of older packages that were combined into libxfce4util are still installed. For whatever reason, emerge doesn't know enough to remove the old packages. I ended up removing all of the XFCE 4.2 packages with emerge -C. Only then was I able to emerge XFCE 4.4. -- Grant Edwards grante Yow! My CODE of ETHICS at is vacationing at famed visi.com SCHROON LAKE in upstate New York!! -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
