hello...i would like to install kommander-3.5.9 but kdewebdev-3.5.9 is blocking it...when i try to put kdewebdev in portage.mask i am able to emerge kommader-3.5.9 just fine but when i try to 'emerge -pvNuD world' i get an error about masked dependencies because kde-base/kde is trying to pull kdewebdev-3.5.9...how can i overcome this problem??

Two issues:

1. It's package.mask, but I think you figured that out...

2. kdewebdev, AFAIK, is part of the monolithic build series. Kommander is part of the split ebuilds series. Building kdewebdev should give you kommander. Mask out kommander, and unmask kdewebdev.

This issue has already been discussed in the topic "Blockers in KDE 3.4.1", where it was summarized by Headrush; and it is also covered in The KDE Configuration HOWTO.

Moved from Portage & Programming to Duplicate Threads.
