Hi, ALL,
I st successfully finished re-installing Gentoo and set the KDE manager.

Hwever inside KDE Start menu I can't find the applications.

I have FF installed and its not there.
I don't see a way to start Terminal.
There is no Game menu there.

What am I missing? I did install kde-meta...

Thank you.

Maybe you should install kde-apps/kde-apps-meta

Hi,
My impression was that kde-meta includes everything.
Apparently I was wrong.
So I guess I will have to install kde-games-meta as well.

I will check what else needs to be installed.

Thank you.

BTW: How did you install kde-meta???

Because on my machine, I get:
Code:
# emerge -pv kde-meta

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies... done!

!!! All ebuilds that could satisfy "kde-meta" have been masked.
!!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request:
- kde-apps/kde-meta-20.08.3::gentoo (masked by: package.mask, ~amd64 keyword)
/var/db/repos/gentoo/profiles/package.mask:
# Andreas Sturmlechner <asturm@gentoo.org> (2020-10-26)
# Historical metapackage that exists in slot 5 only for transition from KDE SC4.
# Masked for removal on 2021-08-31. Replaced by:
# emerge --noreplace kde-plasma/plasma-meta kde-apps/kde-apps-meta

For more information, see the MASKED PACKAGES section in the emerge
man page or refer to the Gentoo Handbook.

It seems that
Code:
emerge --noreplace kde-plasma/plasma-meta kde-apps/kde-apps-meta

is the recommended way to install KDE anyway...

kde-meta and kdebase-meta were depreciated and masked some time (half a year ? ) ago

One should emerge kde-plasma/plasma-meta and for app I would start with kde-apps/kdecore-meta and then add selected apps I need separately

Rather than individually merge the required kde apps, you can create a set, which is just a list of the packages you want.


e.g. /etc/portage/sets/my-kde
Code:

kde-apps/dolphin-plugins-git
kde-apps/dolphin-plugins-mercurial
kde-apps/filelight
kde-apps/gwenview
....


Then emerge the set:
Code:

emerge @my-kde


This is useful when you want the same apps on more than one PCs.
