Description Alex Barbieri 2011-02-05 01:30:25 UTC

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

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

is there chance that dependency on kdepimlibs will be removed?

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.
