Description Evgeniy Rivniy 2007-05-11 12:19:34 UTC 
On current kdenetwork-meta ebuild kppp is hard depend. But many peoples, I think, don't need them. This is a small patch who add new use-flag "ppp" to kdenetwork-meta and kppp depending of them

Reproducible: Always

No, it's kppp depending on the ppp daemon. When you don't want the whole kdenetwok stuff, simply don't install the meta ebuild.

Comment 4 Alexander Skwar 2007-06-15 08:17:59 UTC 
I disagree. I'd like to use all of the kdenetwork-meta stuff, *BUT* not kppp. Why not add a use flag, so that this can be done? And what's the use of the "wifi" USE flag?

Please be consistent - if there should be no "ppp" flag, then please do away with the "wifi" flag as well.

BTW: Doesn't it strike you, that multiple people request the same enhancement with the same patch?

"No, it's kppp depending on the ppp daemon. When you don't want the whole
kdenetwok stuff, simply don't install the meta ebuild."

I'm not installing the kdenetwork-meta ebuild, what is the solution for me?  The only thing I installed is "kde".  Do I have to uninstall that package and install everything I want individually?
