Created attachment 486794 [details, diff] Patch for kde-apps-meta-16.12.3-r1.ebuild kde-apps-meta pulls in kdeedu-meta and kdegames-meta, which not everybody wants. This patch introduces two new use flags 'education' and 'games' to kde-apps-meta which control these dependencies.
Thanks, but if you want to pick only select meta slices, you may as well emerge those smaller meta packages instead. For a complete list, see: https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/KDE#Available_versions_2

Did not read your comment before submitting the last patch, so disregard it. > Thanks, but if you want to pick only select meta slices, you may as well emerge those smaller meta packages instead. Sorry to hear that. Will go with a local portage overlay for now.

> Just create a custom set [...] Thanks, I did not know I could do that, I might try.
