Any way to have both GNOME and KDE installed at the same time?

When I try updating world and installing kde at the same time:

emerge -auvDN --with-bdeps=y @world kde-apps/kde-meta:5

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

Calculating dependencies... done!

!!! The ebuild selected to satisfy ">=kde-plasma/plasma-desktop-5.5.5:5" has unmet requirements.
- kde-plasma/plasma-desktop-5.5.5-r1::gentoo USE="evdev fontconfig gtk3 handbook pulseaudio qt4 -debug -gtk2 -legacy-systray -test -touchpad"

  The following REQUIRED_USE flag constraints are unsatisfied:
    gtk3? ( legacy-systray )

  The above constraints are a subset of the following complete expression:
    legacy-systray? ( any-of ( gtk2 gtk3 qt4 ) ) gtk2? ( legacy-systray ) gtk3? ( legacy-systray )

(dependency required by "kde-plasma/plasma-meta-5.5.5::gentoo" [ebuild])
(dependency required by "kde-apps/kde-meta-15.08.3::gentoo" [ebuild])
(dependency required by "kde-apps/kde-meta:5" [argument])

Does anyone know a way to have both? And if not, can I just remove the gnome and xfce mix-ins and it'll work? Or is additional configuration needed?

 

Thanks.

Use the "button" "make solved" about the best (for You) answer :)

[Sandro]

Try :

 

# egencache --update-use-local-desc
# euse -P qt4 gtk2
# euse -E qt5 gtk3
# emerge -DNupv world kde-apps/kde-meta:5

I tried the commands, got some errors:

egencache --update-use-local-desc
usage: egencache [options] <action> ... [atom] ...
egencache: error: --repo option is required

As for the 3rd command:

euse -E qt5 gtk3
Adding flag "qt5" to make.conf
ERROR: Use flag "gtk3" is not defined in use.desc and should not be added
to make.conf.

I tried manually editing my make.conf with USE="qt5 gtk3" but I still get errors.

emerge -DNupv @world kde-apps/kde-meta:5

I'm using kde4 (then with qt4 and "-qt5");

 

To emerge vlc try with

 

# euse -D qt5 media-video/vlc
# euse -E qt4 media-video/vlc
# emerge -DNu vlc

 

However, in my system (but i use Funtoo Stable), about vlc:

Undo changes to get back to the output in post #1.
If you have  gtk2 gtk3 qt4 qt5 in /etc/portage/make.conf USE= remove them.
Avoid adding USE flags to make.conf , it effects all packages and overrides the profile configuration.
The conflict is due to gnome mix-in make.default sets USE gtk3 and kde-plasma-5 make.default sets USE qt4 and qt5.
Plasma-desktop can only be built using either gtk2 or gtk3 or qt4.
The above constraints are a subset of the following complete expression:
    legacy-systray? ( any-of ( gtk2 gtk3 qt4 ) ) gtk2? ( legacy-systray ) gtk3? ( legacy-systray )
The gnome profile enables gtk3 and kde-plasma-5 enables qt4 which causes the error.
One solution is to disable gtk3 for plasma-desktop in /etc/portage/package.use so it builds with qt4.

"echo kde-plasma/plasma-desktop -gtk3" >> /etc/portage/package.use/plasma-desktop

Don't override vlc use flags, mix-ins/kde-plasma-5/package.use has "media-video/vlc -qt4", vlc builds with qt5.
There is no conflict between lxde and kde-plasma-5 mix-ins on my system.
The output from line 500 emerge -auvDN --with-bdeps=y @world kde-apps/kde-meta:5 :

It seems to work, I'll let it compile tonight.

Excuse me if i've made errors with my answers :(

It asked me to install old nvidia drivers (which wouldn't compile) so I masked them, other than that everything works, thanks.

It's fine, all is working right now. Now how do I make this [solved]?
