Nagstamon is a useful little application and I wrote my own ebuild for it awhile ago, so it is good to see it in the official Portage tree. However, the dependencies cause a lot of the Gnome desktop to be dragged in which is a bit of an overkill for KDE-only users. Also, it gets you no extra functionality since the status bar in systray option is only available for Gnome. I have uploaded an ebuild with a USE flag to fix this problem; it is a synthesis of my original ebuild and the official one. HTH! Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.emerge -pv nagstamon on a -gnome system. 2. 3. Actual Results: # emerge -pv nagstamon These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies... done!

Created attachment 174635 [details] Modified ebuild My ebuild also includes an nagstamon.desktop for the convenience of the users.
Ew, it would be better if you had simply attached a unified diff for easy review instead of a complete tarball.
The idea was that the tarball could be unpacked into a local overlay. However, two new files uploaded.

Thanks for your patches, Robin! I added nagstamon-0.6.2-r1 based on upon your patches. Some quick notes: I'd choose to name the use-flag "gnome" instead of kde - we do enable (optional) things for Gnome users, not disable gnome-stuff for KDE users. As deps for Gnome both dev-python/gnome-python-extras and dev-python/egg-python will provide the used python libs, changed the deps accordingly. The desktop file you provided didn't work for me on a Gnome desktop as it used an invalid format. You can easily check those syntax failures with running "repoman full" (after redigesting) in the ebuild directory. Thanks, Robin!
I thought the xxx.desktop format was supposed to be desktop-neutral, but there you go. Glad to be of help.
