*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 178037 *** Did you read the bug report? I clearly said this is not about kdenetwork-meta. This is the solution from the bug you marked this as a duplicate of: "No, it's kppp depending on the ppp daemon. When you don't want the whole kdenetwok stuff, simply don't install the meta ebuild." I didn't install the kdenetwork-meta package. That solution does not apply to this bug. Yeah, I did. And you didn't grok the difference between monolithic and split ebuilds. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 178037 *** I half expected a WONTFIX, but could you explain how this is the same as kdenetwork-meta? It's a different package, isn't it? The other bug report complains about a wifi use flag, kdenetwork doesn't have that use flag while kdenetwork-meta does. I don't have kdenetwork-meta installed, nor have I ever installed it. In fact something is blocking it. # emerge kdenetwork-meta -pv These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies... done!

Your 'problem' is that you have kde-base/kde installed; so if you don't want the whole thing, don't install that one. Thank you for providing some real information. All you needed to say was "kde-base/kdenetwork includes kppp", or even a generic "kdenetwork and kdenetwork-meta follow the same standards" would have been good enough to hint that they were more or less the same package. If you had given me a simple one sentence explanation when marking the bug as a duplicate it would have helped both myself and others who find this bug later. Since you asked how kppp is supposed to work without net-dialup/ppp, I should say that even with net-dialup/ppp it doesn't work (no kernel module here). I guess this puts me in the same camp as the others in wanting a ppp use flag, it's something requiring a kernel module as wifi does. But I don't feel strongly about it. I've got enough hdd space for a few unused programs and their libraries and/or daemons. |
