kdevelop-3.3.6 (and maybe other versions, I haven't tried any other) postinstall info contains amongst other things this line: kde-base/kdebase: (RECOMMENDED) embed konsole kpart in kdevelop ide Shouldn't that be changed to be either kde-base/kdebase-meta or the correct sub-package that provides that feature? Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. run emerge kdevelop Actual Results: postinstall info: kdevelop can use a wide range of apps for extra functionality. This is an almost complete list. All these packages can be emerged after kdevelop. kde-base/kdebase: (RECOMMENDED) embed konsole kpart in kdevelop ide dev-util/kdbg: (RECOMMENDED) kde frontend to gdb dev-util/valgrind: (RECOMMENDED) integrates valgrind (memory debugger) commands kde-base/kompare: (RECOMMENDED) show differences between files dev-java/ant: support projects using the ant build tool dev-util/ctags: faster and more powerful code browsing logic app-doc/doxygen: generate KDE-style documentation for your project www-misc/htdig: index and search your project's documentation app-arch/rpm: support creating RPMs of your project app-emulation/visualboyadvance: create and run projects for this gameboy Expected Results: "kde-base/kdebase: (RECOMMENDED) embed konsole kpart in kdevelop ide" should be more specific to what package is actually needed for that feature. #
