I'll test it out on a fresh install, but that will take a number of hours (a total of 694 packages between them, which will take a while even on 4 cores, and warm up the office as well...). If I try to start out with chromium first the initial suggestion is to enable icu on libxml2, and if I try to start out with kde-meta the initial suggestion is to enable minizip on zlib (unrelated to this whole issue). I don't have a copy of the message but when I got the update to qt-webkit the message was fairly cryptic when it added the !icu? dependency on libxml2. If anything I think it was less clear. Let me give that upgrade a try both ways, but it might take a few days to have all the results of that. Rich
