Hi,
I was tracking KDE-4.x for a while now while sticking to "stable" KDE-3.5,
which in gentoo's case is 3.5.9. Trying to get KDE-4.2 installed spits out a
blocker:
[blocks B ] <=kde-base/kdebase-startkde-3.5.10
("<=kde-base/kdebase-startkde-3.5.10" is blocking kde-base/kdelibs-4.2.0)
which for me means switching to *2* testing platforms (3.5.10 and 4.2) when I
want to test only 1 (4.2).
Now my question is: how safe is it to do a workaround, and create local version
of kde-base/kdelibs-4.2.0-r1 ebuild (say, -r2) which removes the block and just
stick with 3.5.9 on 3.5 side ? I really don't feel like unmasking 3.5.10 builds
and building them too.
another confusing thing is:
!<=kde-base/kdebase-3.5.9-r4
!<=kde-base/kdebase-startkde-3.5.10
which I read as "you're fine using kde-3.5.9 as long as you don't use
startkde". kind of weird.
