konq-plugins-3.4.0_rc1.ebuild got mixed up in the update it looks like, the beta2 ebuild is correct but the rc1 ebuild is a copy of the old arkplugin ebuild. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.emerge konq-plugins 2. 3. Actual Results: Only the ark viewer plugin is installed. Expected Results: All konq-plugins should be isntalled. Thanks for the great work on the split ebuilds.
Since konq-plugins have been merged into one ebuild, wouldn't it be nice to have local use flag for each plugin? Or do we have to use DO_NOT_COMPILE now?
The reasoning behind joining all the kdeaddons-derived ebuilds back into larger ones like konq-plugins, noatun-plugins... was that the individual plugins are very small (so that unpacking/configuring/installing cost is far greater than the pure compiling time anyway) and users generally shouldn't care about getting all the plugins for one app as long as they don't carry extra deps. It was requested by some users as well as people on the team. Reducing the amount of ebuilds has an intrinsic positive value too. Never, never use DO_NOT_COMPILE. It is evil. Read the split ebuilds FAQ. We can't use local use flags because they'd have to be on by default and we can't add a huge amount of local use flags to all profiles' make.defaults. I fixed the ebuild, it's in cvs as rc1-r1. Thanks for the report.
