I wondered how to get rid of old packages like KDE-3.2.0 and KDE-3.2.3 or other packages wich install different version without cleaning the old ons.

It's much easier than you believ and you dont have to pick them manually.

Here's an example how to remove all old komponents of an outdated KDE installation:

emerge -avP `eix -c -C kde | grep "\[I\]" | cut -d " " -f 2`

Now alle your old packages are gone ;-)
