The first of the two FAQ items (how to unmerge an older KDE) should indeed be handled by portage functionality. Specifically, GLEP 21 (package sets). meta ebuilds should be replaced by sets. I could write about GLEP 21 in the FAQ, but that wouldn't help non-geek users like your mother. This issue isn't specific to kde; gnome 1.4/2.x has different SLOTs too. KDE does have more ebuilds involved than any other case such as gnome, but even gnome's several dozen ebuilds (which aren't all in one dir) are a pain to uninstall manually. The user also has to know enough about ebuilds to understand the concept of unmerging a slotted ebuild version. IMHO that's on the same level of skill/knowledge as running the sample script given in the FAQ. Would it help if that script was packaged nicely and available through an ebuild? (gentoolkit? But that might require the script to have more general application...) The second FAQ item's answer is aimed at people writing a script to begin with. It's true that I don't normally separate such people from those 'merely' using a shell :-) Would it help to give here, also, a sample shell command that would output the list of ebuilds inheriting from a given parent package? I don't see what more can be done. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee. -- [email protected] mailing list
