Hi,

I'm trying to upgrade from 3.5.x to 4.3.1 the first time.
I followed these guides:
http://www.linuxized.com/2009/09/kde-4-3-1-released-in-gentoo/#utm_source=feed&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=feed
http://www.linuxized.com/2009/08/kde-4-3-is-here-quick-gentoo-upgrade-guide/#guide
http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/desktop/kde/kde4-guide.xml

The builds compiled surprisingly well, but now

- I see no ~/.kde4
- I see no /usr/kde/4.3 or similar

so I think something (probably just a silly, but important thing) went wrong, but I have no clue what.

Any ideas?
Thanks!

P.S.: The disk is not full ;-)

Have you tried to start it? I don't think ~/.kde4 gets
built until first start.

there is no /usr/kde/4.3 (or are you trying to use
kdeprefix?).

no, didn't try to start so far - but maybe that's the only way to find out ...
I use no kdeprefix
