kdelibs and qt version.

[mathfeel]

I had the following config. failure during emerging one of the package. (I think it was compiz-kconfig-backend)

Mathfeel, did reemerging kdelibs fix this problem for you? I have the same issue with kaffeine, k3b and kdvi. I've tried reemerging kdelibs and qt but with no success.
Here is the output from kdvi's update featuring the very same problem. Anyone any ideas??

Cheers, Matt.

Try running revdep-rebuild - that should pick up the problem package and re-emerge it for you.

[IncredibleMrT]

i92guboj, I am at work now but will trying being more specific in what version of kdelib and qt I ty to emerge. Qt4 is definitely installed but i'm not sure about kdelibs-4.x. Before I left I set it off rebuilding both qt and kdelibs - don't expect it to have made any difference.

AllenJB, I run revdep-rebuild almost everyday as part of my daily update routine It's all I ever seem to do - update update update.

Thanks guys!

[AllenJB]

Maybe you should consider not updating every day. I currently tend to update about monthly at the most.

[IncredibleMrT]

But if I stop that then my computer would be redundant for almost a month

[IncredibleMrT]

Checked the version of kdelibs I had installed kde-base/kdelibs-3.5.9-r4. qt4 was being pulled in as well as qt3.*. Guess that's down to the qt4 use flag I had set. I've unset that flag and now wait for it to complete updating.
Fingers crossed!

[IncredibleMrT]

Still no luck. I realised I had a few local packages setup (kaffeine being one of them). Removed them all as I no longer needed them and tried again. Still emerge failed on kaffeine, k3b and kdvi.
qt4 isn't installed. I'm rebuilt kdelibs and qt numerous times and still no positive result. Thing is, nothing seems broken at all, it's just refusing to build newer versions. It's been like it now for a couple of weeks.

If there is any info you feel may help bring forth a diagnosis then just holler.
Thanks
Matt.

Is there noone out there experiencing the same problem?

Found a solution to the bug

kde_cv_uic_plugins=yes emerge --resume


Not sure what it's doing but it works.

Alternatively, you could change your profile to desktop, then this error won't happen (found this workaround on bugzilla):
