[PyKDE] PyKDE on Gentoo

[Patrick Stinson]

I also use gentoo, and choose to prioritize ebuilds over source  
installs.

Although the above is true, sip/PyQt/PyKDE installs are very clean  
and easy to remove. I use snapshots at will, knowing that I can  
simple install an ebuild over them, or manually remove them fairly  
easily.

Go for it; stay bleeding edge.
