Please help, i was using Kdenlive 0,5 on Gentoo, where is KDE 3.5.9, it wants some KDE 4 libs. I have unmasked it, but it wants more and more... What should I do, when I want to install Kdenlive on Gentoo:

 

 smajchl@smajchl ~ $ emerge -av kdenlive

superuser access is required... adding --pretend to options.





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



Calculating dependencies... done!



!!! All ebuilds that could satisfy ">=kde-base/kdepimlibs-4.1[-kdeprefix]" have been masked.

!!! One of the following masked packages is required to complete your request:

- kde-base/kdepimlibs-4.2.0 (masked by: ~x86 keyword)

- kde-base/kdepimlibs-4.1.4 (masked by: ~x86 keyword)



For more information, see the MASKED PACKAGES section in the emerge

man page or refer to the Gentoo Handbook.

(dependency required by "media-video/kdenlive-0.7.1" [ebuild])

(dependency required by "kdenlive" [argument])

 

As you didn't use the 'kdeprefix' USE flag, you wont be able to install KDE-3.x and KDE-4.x parallel in SLOTs.

You have to set the USE flag 'kdeprefix', do a 'emerge -avuDN world' (which will take a long time, since it will recompile any KDE related app) and then you'll be able to install kdenlive-0.7.x

Thank you for reply, I will try it, enable kdeprefix and recompile all newuse. I suppose, that it will install KDE3 into own directory and KDE4 also (prefix :-)).

U I
- - arts : Adds support for aRts: the KDE sound daemon
- - debug : Enable extra debug codepaths, like asserts and extra output. If you want to get meaningful backtraces see http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/qa/backtraces.xml
- - elibc_FreeBSD : ELIBC setting for systems that use the FreeBSD C library
- - kdeenablefinal : EXPERIMENTAL: KDE ebuilds will use the enable-final flag, yielding compilation speedups at the cost of heavy mem usage and potentially causing problems. We strongly discourage setting this
- - xinerama : Add support for the xinerama X11 extension, which allows you to stretch your display across multiple monitors

I am sorry, but there is no "kdeprefix" USE flag, when emerge -uDN world, only normal packages, not KDE are updating:-)

That USE flag exists, but no package uses it:

smajchl@smajchl ~/programovani/avidemux $ euse -I kdeprefix
global use flags (searching: kdeprefix)
************************************************************

Installed packages matching this USE flag: none
no matching entries found

local use flags (searching: kdeprefix)

I cant do that:

smajchl smajchl # emerge -av kdenlive

emerge: there are no ebuilds to satisfy "=kde-base/kdelibs-3.5.10".

OK, so i have figured out how to do it
1) this: < means that every version which is smaller than 3.5.9 is blocking new KDE, so I had to upgrade to masked 3.5.10, the best is to use autounmask to unmask all necessary packages - I didn't know that before.
2) just install KDE 4.2, also it's fine to use autounmask ;-)
3) install Kdenlive! (if you install it, it also takes necessary packages from KDE4 as dependences, so you can even skip step 2)

Jupí!!! but it is little bit slower than old KDE :-(
