Description Pat Erley 2003-07-17 22:24:45 UTC

When you try to emerge gentoo-artwork with the USE="kde" flag set, et will
attempt to install kde-base and qt.  the install does not appear to directly
require either of these, and I see no purpose to have this dependancy.  The use
check on whether to install the theme is appropriate, however.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge unmerge kde-base
2. USE="kde' emerge gentoo-artwork

Actual Results:  
it tried to reinstall kde-base

Expected Results:  
I don't see any reason to install kde-base now if the user doesn't want it yet.
 Another idea is that not just kde can use kde themes.  Perhaps a virtual/kde is
in order?

can't emerge info currently
