Hi,
Is this possible to emerge Kde and Gnome in the same time?
I mean to open a console and emerge Kde and on other console emerge Gnome.
Can be there any conflict for the dependencies?
Many Thanks
Pacman

i would only see a problem if both emerges had some common dependencies.
but i couldnt be too sure.

Theoretically, yes. But, I'd suggest you:
1) emerge X first, because both kde and gnome would try do compile it as a dependency
2) after emerging X, run emerge -p kde and emerge -p gnome and check if they have any dependencies in common
3) if they do, emerge those common dependencies first
Then I guess it's ok to emerge kde and gnome in parallel.

considering the size of kde and gnome, why would you want to do this? I mean, I'm not downing you for wanting efficiency, but unless you have a multi-processor system your only going to bog the make process down by having two. (task-switching context has overhead)
What I would do is first do X, then KDE, then Gnome like the last person said. The easiest way to do that is "emerge X kde gnome".
Might be fun to do a --pretend flag in there and see just how many packages are going to be slapped together. If you do it the way it is above, the dependencies aren't a problem, simply because they are done one after the other. |

Actually, if you do it this way, you don't need to specify X. It will be automatically installed as a dependency for kde and gnome.
