Bug 425150 – media-sound/cantata pulls in KDE dependencies even with USE=-kde

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Ben de Groot (RETIRED) 2012-07-07 11:04:34 UTC]

When I try to emerge cantata with kde useflag disabled, portage still wants to install a shitload of KDE dependencies. It makes the kde useflag quite useless for non-KDE users... Please fix.

Since this is an MPD client, all those dependencies should be optional, right? It only *needs* Qt, the rest are add-on features. The Changelog for 0.8.0 mentions that even taglib is optional now. I haven't looked in detail, but I guess the others are as well.

Also, you probably want virtual/ffmpeg, unless for some reason libav can't satisfy the dependency.

And Gentoo convention is to not repeat the package name in the description.
