I've got the exact same problem. I guess KDE is broken right now. :cry:

I too can confirm this. Rsync as of Wed Oct 30 13:20:31 UTC 2002.

Please fix this ASAP, trying to get a workable system by Wednesday afternoon.

I got the same problem as well. While waiting for KDE to get fixed I would reccomend that you try a diffrent window manager.

if you're not on a mission critical box, try the 3.1 beta ebuild (I've been running beta_2 since it came out, no problems). Also, I rebuilt my entire system on Tuesday (updating to 1.4 with the scripts broke something so I started over. good thing /home was on a diff drive), and it built fine.

PS-If you're running 1.4, don't forget to emerge lib-compat, it will save you some headaches later on (or maybe it was just me).

PPS-I forgot to mention that you'll have to unmask the beta_2 ebuilds, of course. After you rsync, just comment out all of the lines in the kde-3.1_beta2 section of /usr/portage/profiles/package.mask
