4.1.85 ebuilds have been moved from kde-crazy to kde-testing.
anybody knows why?

That means KDE-4.2 branch ebuilds are stabilizing... and about to be prepared moving into main portage once KDE-4.2.0 is released.

kde-crazy will then switch to KDE-4.3 development.

I had installed kde-4.2 beta 2 (kde 4.1.85) from kde-crazy but I have the kde-testing too.

Now when I try to update the world set it says the next:

Same problem, adding and removing kde-testing didn't help.

i have made some changes:
keywords now are structured in folders, so we can have snapshots without any live (unslotted) ebuilds

from now on symlink the /usr/portage/local/layman/kde-*/Documentation/package.keywords/kde-X to your /etc/portage/package.keywords/
also, kde-testing now contains sets and keywords for 3.5, 4.1 and 4.2(snapshots). kde-crazy contains sets and keywords only for -live. When 4.3 snapshots hit the mirrors (and kde-crazy), we'll add 4.3 sets and keywords to kde-crazy too.
Snapshots are completely removed from kde-crazy and are available only by kde-testing, as they are in their beta stages. So please make your changes and check your symlinks

I have one question: What to do if the name of an installed set changes or it simply gets removed, and portage not only complains about it but refuses work?

In case of @koffice-2 (formerly in kde-crazy) which is now called @koffice (in kde-testing), I just symlinked it under the old name for the time being.

errors compilling many kde-9999 applications;

-- Configuring done
CMake Error: INSTALL(EXPORT) given unknown export "kdeworkspaceLibraryTargets"
-- Generating done
-- Build files have been written to: /var/tmp/portage/kde-base/kdm-9999/work/kdm_build

also collisions problems as many packages install the same files.

anybody?

@genstorm
sets are written in /var/lib/portage/world_sets just remove them from there. When you try to reinstall a set it gets written to world_sets again.
@koffice-2 and @koffice are two completely different sets, the one is for the in-portage koffice and the other is for the kde-crazy unstable one.

@tranquilcool
i'll do a full rebuild tomorrow so no other commits for today
