Hi Daniel!
Gail isn't installed on my system.
Can be the cause of this problem that few packages - below - have ~x86 keywords?
media-video/totem ~x86
x11-libs/gtk+ ~x86
dev-libs/glib ~x86
media-plugins/gst-plugins-gio ~x86
dev-util/intltool ~x86
dev-libs/totem-pl-parser ~x86
I these packages hasn't ~x86 keyword I can install only firefox-2.x.

You're trying to use a ~arch gtk+ with an arch gail. The block message
shows that gail versions less than 1000 block, and you are trying to
emerge 1.22.3 because gail-1000 is keyworded ~arch. Add it
to /etc/portage/package.keywords and the block will go away.
This is one of the disadvantages of running a mixed arch/~arch system.

uninstall gail and gtk+ and emerge is working fine... But after this
the blockign situation is same.
Okay, nothing problem I thought, I install the gail and after I can
install gtk+ BUT - and this is a really big BUT - gail depending of
gtk+.
softwarealchemy sayusi # emerge -avt gail
These are the packages that would be merged, in reverse order:

Maybe you don't have to install gail at all? What depends on gail? I
heard that recent versions of gtk+ integrate gail functionality. So
for each package that depends on gail, you could see if a more recent
version of that package does not have the gail dependency.

Hmmm... good idea. I will try it!
On other hand. I like stable system. If I can I avoid the ~x86
packages, but sometimes I have to... :(
Thank you for yours suggestion.

Objet: [gentoo-user] Problems installing KDE 3.5.9
Some packages from KDE won't install:
kde-base/kdenetwork-3.5.9
kde-base/kdeartwork-3.5.9
kde-base/kdeutils-3.5.9-r1
kde-base/kdeadmin
kde-base/kdegraphics
kde-base/kdeaddons
The error message is always the same:
* The die message:
* econf failed
Thanks to Alan Mc Kinnon's advice, I dug a little further in errors messages and found this:
qt lib must be the same that was used to compile kdelibs. So a recompile of kdelibs did the trick. Hope it may help...

Sorry, might be coming late to this discussion and offering something that was
already offered, but how about openoffice-bin ? It works for me 100% of the
time on several workstations without a glitch (both x86 and amd64)?

Yes: /var/db/pkg (/var/db/pkg/*/*/CONTENTS) |
The information in /var/db/pkg is more nicely accessed through the
utilities in app-portage/portage-utils and app-portage/gentoolkit.
Install theses packages and play with the tools - it will make your
gentoo-life a lot nicer 
A must (at least for me) is also app-portage/eix to access the
information in /usr/portage quickly.

few packages and it takes up about 2.5 GB … Where other distro’s like
slackware would take up 2.5 GB for every thing with out KDE or
Gnome .
1st: |
# rm /usr/portage/distfiles/*
Then: Gentoo installs (in binary distros terms) all "*-dev" packages
(all libs and headers), as it needs this for compiling - that blows the
system a lot.
In my system (GNOME, lots of servers, development software) the
installed package DB (/var/db/pkg) is about 200 MB.
The portage tree (/usr/portage) is about 500 MB for everybody...
| Quote: | Where should I look for information …
* Use 'qsize' from app-portage/portage-utils to find out package sizes. |

that's because you "unmerged everything"?
You appear to be going around in circles a little bit I had a quick
read over the thread and you've tried a few different things but with
different versions of vmware-modules or workstation or whatever.
Can we get back to a known state by:
1. unmerge everything vmware
2. `slocate vmware` and delete all the modules, binaries, libs, init
scripts etc off your filesystem (except the VM's of course). Basically
try and get to a system that has never seen vmware.
3. pick a version of vmware (workstation, player, whatever) and let us
know what version of what product you're going to install, what version
of the kernel you have, and use the portage version (please!).
Then let's see if we can stick to one product+version+install_type at a
time.
