The plasma-workspace-4.6.0 ebuild has an unconditional dependence on kdepimlibs, while the 4.5.5 ebuild has this dependency conditional on the 'rss' use flag. kde-base/kdepimlibs-4.6.0 depends in turn on boost, which is a very heavy dependency I would like to avoid. Is there any way to avoid depending on kdepimlibs, or am I stuck building boost? Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce:
you are stuck building boost :)
On a second thought, i see a possible bug in kde-workspace/plasma/generic/dataengines/CMakeLists.txt, I'll create a (second) patch. If you try it now, you'll get: /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/4.5.2/../../../../x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld: cannot find -lKDEPIMLibs__kholidays collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make[2]: *** [lib/plasma_applet_clock.so] Error 1 make[1]: *** [plasma/generic/applets/analog-clock/CMakeFiles/plasma_applet_clock.dir/all] Error 2 make[1]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....

is there chance that dependency on kdepimlibs will be removed?
*** Bug 355423 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
for anyone interested, take a look at https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=353730#c34 those two bugs will be fixed together most probably
finally fixed, rss useflag is back. you will also need libplasmaclock without the holidays useflag.
