As most of you know, KDE 3.5 is getting off the Gentoo train for various reasons mentioned elsewhere (in short: security, lack of upstream interest).

I’ve made the necessary modifications in gentoo’s kde-testing overlay to fix the issue by adding a new ebuild for libknotificationitem and adding libknotificationitem DEPEND [...]
I now have my personal gentoo overlay over at github. For those not familiar with overlays, they are something like a “repository”. They allow you to add and use ebuilds out of the official portage tree. In my overlay, called “wirelay”, I usually add fixes from bugs.gentoo.org that I need which haven’t reached the tree [...]
