Bug 136810 – kontact-specialdates-3.5.2 should not rdepend on kmail

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Erik Quaeghebeur 2006-06-14 12:23:23 UTC]

kontact-specialdates-3.5.2 rdepends on kmail, it should not.

The ebuild mentions:

RDEPEND="$DEPEND
$(deprange $PV $MAXKDEVER kde-base/kmail)" # only to enable send mail functionality

The comment is not clear on what type of mails to be sent, but 
* kde bugreports can be sent without kmail installed,
* for general emails kde's component chooser can be used to select another MUA.

Not quite. While it does call the user defined mua in the popup menu, it has the kmail icon hardcoded, which gets installed by the kmail ebuild. I'm a bit unsure, if it's worth doing something about it.

Then perhaps I should take this upstream?

Well, having to install a big program I'm not using just because of an _icon_ is absurd. Can the necessary icon be extracted from the kmail archive without having to install kmail?

(BTW, thanks for looking at this bug)

Did so already. https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=143529

Sure, but, uhh, o.k. - I'll include it my kdepim change set.
