|
|
Hi,
I want to emerge 4.2 while keeping 3.5.9, but emerge won't let me...
Code: |
$ emerge -pvuD @kde-4.2
(skipped)
[uninstall ] kde-base/kdebase-3.5.9-r3 USE="arts branding cups hal java ldap lm_sensors opengl samba xcomposite xscreensaver -debug -ieee1394 -joystick -kdeenablefinal -kdehiddenvisibility -logitech-mouse -openexr -pam -xinerama" [0]
[blocks b ] <=kde-base/kdebase-3.5.9-r4 ("<=kde-base/kdebase-3.5.9-r4" is blocking kde-base/kdelibs-4.2.0)
|
I use kdeprefix. Is there a way to have 3.5 and 4.2 at the same time?
I have asked this question in Portage and Programming too, if that's inappropriate I'll pull it from here.
UPDATE
3.5.9 cannot be installed together with 4.2; 3.5.10 can.

Update to kde 3.5.10. That will allow a parallel kde 4 installation. |

How do I update to 3.5.10? It doesn't seem to be in the portage tree. |

It's inside the testing tree, so you need to use /etc/portage/package.keywords to unlock the packages.
Code: |
sylvain@gentootux ~ $ eix startkde
[I] kde-base/kdebase-startkde
Available versions:
(3.5) 3.5.9 ~3.5.10-r5
(4.1) ~4.1.4
(4.2) ~4.2.0
{arts debug elibc_FreeBSD kdeenablefinal kdeprefix xinerama}
Installed versions: 3.5.9(3.5)(06:53:30 2008-10-24)(kdeenablefinal -arts -debug -elibc_FreeBSD -xinerama)
Homepage: http://www.kde.org/
Description: Startkde script, which starts a complete KDE session, and associated scripts

Sorry, my mistake! It is in portage, of course. Thanks! |

Make sure and emerge kde-3.5.10 with the kdeprefix use flag when you upgrade it, so it get's properly slotted and doesn't conflict with kde-4.2. |
