Hrmm--I already started the reinstall--I'd been planning to do it for
days, so, this was a good excuse--and Naoko's in Boston this weekend,
so it's a good chance.  (oops, just realized this was to t-lug, not
private--oh well, now you all know my wife is in Boston.)  :)

Sigh--now, I'm tempted to put kde on this box (I'm on another box now,
as I've started the install) just to see if it will work.  I blame you
for this. :)

I really should have done that--this heat is a bit ennervating
(enervating?) and I was eager to get the new install started.  Now, I
feel guilty enough so that I'll install KDE on this one. I will then
emerge -C kinput2 and canna. I will then do an emerge --clean rsync and
try to install it from ports--if I still have a problem, I'll post
again--as I'll do if it's fixed.  As this is an experiment, I'm going
to not put in the USE flag about kde-artwork though, and see what
happens.  

I apologize to both you and Ryan for not taking the time to wait for
suggestions before starting the new installation--it was fairly stupid
on my part.  My penance will be installing kde-base on this box.  (I
refuse that other suggested penance, aol help desk, whether or not it
matches my level of competence.)

Will do if after the kde build, the kinput build fails.

Again my apologies--even more so to Ryan (although Ryan, I do mention
your successful ebuild on other heavily popoulated lists, such as NYLUG
and others.)
