Hi, I've run into a really strange problem during an upgrade from KDE 4.8 to KDE 4.9. This upgrade includes an upgrade in polkit from version 0.104 to 0.107-r1.
The problem with the latter release is that I cannot emerge polkit for release>=0.107-r1 (did not tes it with plain 0.107), because I get a linker error:
