If you compile kde-plasma/kinfocenter-5.27.10 and sys-apps/dmidecode is not installed, then it will not show the Manufacturer, Product Name and Serial Number in kinfocenter under "About this System". It will if you install this package. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Emerge kde-plasma/kinfocenter-5.27.10 without sys-apps/dmidecode on a brand PC or laptop 2. Open kinfocenter and go to "About this System" Actual Results: No Manufacturer, Product Name or Serial Number displayed. Expected Results: A Manufacturer, Product Name and Serial Number displayed. emerge --info Portage 3.0.61 (python 3.11.7-final-0, default/linux/amd64/17.1/systemd/merged-usr, gcc-13, glibc-2.38-r10,

I was going to post this very bug today. There's actually a lot of missing deps required for displaying info. app-misc/wayland-utils > listing Wayland info dev-util/clinfo > listing OpenCL info dev-util/vulkan-tools > listing Vulkan info sys-apps/dmidecode > listing motherboard name sys-apps/pciutils > listing PCI devices sys-apps/usbutils > listing USB devices x11-apps/mesa-progs > listing OpenGL (EGL) and OpenGL (GLX) info x11-apps/xdpyinfo > listing X-Server info Could we rename the thread to missing runtime dependencies?
P.S. I do know there is a post install message but having a USE flag to pull in additional runtime dependencies would be nice. A tools or utils USE flag could pull in the extra deps.
(In reply to unhappy-ending from comment #2) > P.S. I do know there is a post install message but having a USE flag to pull > in additional runtime dependencies would be nice. A tools or utils USE flag > could pull in the extra deps. Portage does not support optional runtime dependencies so such a request is not possible until someone will implement it in the package manager.
Additional note: sys-libs/libsmbios provides temperature and energy information in case of my laptop in the Info center.

> > sys-apps/usbutils > listing USB devices > Where exactly? You're asking me 5 months later when my system has completely changed from Plasma 5 to Plasma 6. kinfocenter 6 doesn't seem to need it and I'm not going to change things back to look into it now.
