as already mentioned *twice* in the sub-thread you are responding to, qt is dead. It is a meta ebuild that should not even exist. The qt- subpackages are very much alive and stable: $ eix qt-gui [I] x11-libs/qt-gui Available versions: (4) 4.5.3-r2 (~)4.6.1 **4.6.9999-r1[1] **4.9999- r1[1] {+accessibility aqua cups dbus debug exceptions +glib gtk +kde-qt mng nas nis pch qt3support raster (+)stable-branch tiff xinerama} Installed versions: 4.6.1(4)(23:21:45 09/02/10)(accessibility cups dbus glib gtk mng pch qt3support tiff xinerama -aqua -debug -nas -nis -raster) Homepage: http://qt.nokia.com/ Description: The GUI module for the Qt toolkit You do not need to emerge qt. Just emerge the stuff that uses qt and let portage pick the bits needed. -- alan dot mckinnon at gmail dot com
