Description Fernando Henrique Ferraz Pereira da Rosa 2003-07-21 17:16:38 UTC

Licq's ebuild has a "need kde 3" flag. This is highly incorrect. Licq runs
just fine WITHOUTH KDE. Optionally it's graphical interface may be compiled with
kde support, but this is just an option. Making licq need KDE is like making
xchat need Gnome. Total nonsense.

This is normal, and doesn't require KDE by default if the user doesn't select it.

Discovery:/usr/portage/net-im/licq # USE="-kde" emerge licq -epv | grep kde
[ebuild  N   ] net-im/licq-1.2.7  +ssl -socks5 +qt -kde +ncurses

As you can see this doesn't affect licq's requirement of KDE. The 'need kde' line is there in case the kde USE flag is used.
