emerge -p xfce
[ebuild N ] x11-libs/qt-3.1.0-r1
[ebuild N ] kde-base/kde-env-3-r2
[ebuild N ] kde-base/arts-1.0.5a
[ebuild N ] x11-wm/xfce-3.8.18-r1
emerge 'USE="qt" xfce'
Calculating dependencies
emerge: there are no masked or unmasked ebuilds to satisfy "USE="-qt" xfce".
whats the proper syntax?

guru4u,
your syntax :
emerge 'USE="qt" xfce'
should read :
USE="qt" emerge xfce
however, I am not sure what you want to do here. This USE setting turns on qt support, if qt support is a configure option for the packege to be emerged. Additionally the USE setting in /etc/make.conf also are used during the build process. I use the USE line when I need to implement some specific option for a specific program which would conflict with other programs if this option was included in the /etc/make.conf USE setting. And of course certain ebuild require manually setting things with USE(ie. mozilla, USE="gtk2" emerge mozilla-without this USE option mozilla is built without gtk2 support) |

kde-base/arts-1.0.5a needs qt-3.0.5 according to the ebuild.
If you don't want qt...then I suggest(just as a guess)
| Code: |
USE="-arts" emerge xfce

I agree with the last poster. | Code: | | USE="-arts" emerge xfce |
The only reason qt is listed as a dependecy is 'cause arts is listed as a "USE" flag. And you only need that if you want to turn on arts support in xfce. It is not necessary. I find it frustrating. I had a hard time figuring this out at first when compiling xfce because I didnt want KDE at all.
It should compile fine now.
