hello

I just installed kdbase successfully and I am writing in this forum from Konqeror :)

Following the handbook, I wanted to have the GUI started at startup .

Code:


#emerge --ask --noreplace kdm

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

what goes wrong ? Apparently there is a problem with USE ?

thanks !

kdebase is a monolithic package and blocks all the split-ebuild packages on which kdm depends.
Code:
emerge -C kde-base/kdebase
emerge -av kde-base/kdm
should get you sorted out. You may need to re-install a component or two afterwards, if kdm doesn't pull in all the same pieces as kdebase.

Incidentally, there's a typo in either your USE flags, or in your transcription thereof:

That last flag should be hal, not ha1. Last letter is lowercase L.

thanks ! I am not sure to understand why kdebase , which is already installed , blocks the installation of kdm but I will try asap your commands. 8)

:evil: Silly mistake !

Apparently this hal flag was needed at the build phase of kdebase to mount automatically my devices. Now than kdebase is installed, how can I correct this build error ?

Since you'll be removing kdebase to install kdm, it should sort itself out. If you want to be certain everything is rebuilt properly, use:
Code:
emerge --newuse --ask world
after you remove kdebase, and before you install kdm. Note that this could rebuild a lot of packages, depending on how much you've installed with the wrong USE flag.

Howwever, you may not need to rebuild anything, as I believe hal is enabled by default. If you have gentoolkit installed, try this:
Code:
$ euse -i hal
global use flags (searching: hal)
************************************************************
[+  D ] hal - Enable Hardware Abstraction Layer (HAL) support

local use flags (searching: hal)
************************************************************
no matching entries found
The D indicates hal is set in make.defaults, a C would mean make.conf. If the D is present you're fine, your typo caused no harm. (If you don't have gentoolkit, emerge gentoolkit to install it.)

As for why kdebase blocks kdm: last year (or maybe earlier), the so-called monolithic KDE ebuilds were split into many pieces, to allow greater control over which components get installed and improve maintainability. You can have either the monolithic package installed, or the equivalent component packages (the "split ebuilds"), but not both--because they are two different methods of installing the same programs.

kdebase is a monolithic installation of the base KDE environment: desktop, Konqueror, and all the rest. KDM depends on the separate ebuilds for all these individual components, not the monolithic ebuild. Even though the programs are already installed, Portage won't install another package that wants to claim ownership of the same files. Hence the blocks. Clear?

This issue has already been discussed in the topic "Blockers in KDE 3.4.1", where it was summarized by Headrush; and it is also covered in The KDE Configuration HOWTO.
