Description Leszek 2006-06-01 12:19:24 UTC
if i want to launch kuroo from the menu, it complains that kdesu dont exist

there should be a dependency on kde-base/kdebase OR kde-base/kdesu
Comment 1 Matteo Azzali (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-06-03 05:17:14 UTC
I have just some doubts: can a kde system work well without kdesu?

You'll lose any administration feature. If this is something you want, 
you have to change the command line of kuroo and if you are in portage
group you then can see (but not modify) portage packets.

I checked other ebuilds, kdesu isn't used as dep for kuser or kicker
(you'll need kdesu for clock setting function),while 
it is in Kcontrol (that should be present in any sane installation)
and K3b...
Comment 2 Leszek 2006-06-03 13:17:24 UTC
i don't have a kde system, i prefer gnome. (flamewar mode: OFF)
but i use kuroo, k3b, kdevelop, ...

these kde apps only need the big kdelibs package, not the entire kde DE.

Then you shouldn't really need kdesu, you would just need to change the command 
line invoked in the menu for using gnomesu instead.....

Yeah, but that should work out of the box. And then gnomesu would be the runtime dependency to be added. 

-r1 with kdesu dependency in cvs. If someone really should complain we could add gnomesu support by some "kde gnome" use deps and a sed expression.
