The problem is that if you don't have qt3 support, Portage tells you to enable qt3support for _one_ of those packages. If you do exactly what portage tells you (enable it for that one package), then portage will complain and tell you to disable it for that package. At least that's what always seemed to happen for me. -- Grant Edwards grant.b.edwards Yow! I'm in direct contact at with many advanced fun gmail.com CONCEPTS.
