kde-meta and the other kde metapackages are only for pulling in packages from the core KDE SC (all of which are in kde-base/, and networkmanagement is in kde-misc), which is why it's not there presently. That said, I do agree that networkmanagement could be more clearly indicated. The other problem is that this isn't appropriate to add this as a DEPEND/RDEPEND to a non-meta package since this isn't even a runtime-only dep. Perhaps an elog would be appropriate, or we could reconsider our meta-package rules. Rest of KDE team: thoughts? I could also live with a kde-utilities kind of meta package with all sorts of USE flags, but I don't think we have enough of said packages to make it worthwhile. Its already described in the official wiki: http://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/NetworkManager (In reply to Chris Reffett from comment #1) > or we could reconsider our meta-package rules. Yes please! We already have plenty of meta USE flags which break our "meta is only for X" rule, and I think it does add a lot to the user experience. We decided in the meeting. 1.) add networkmanager use flag to pull in kde-misc/networkmanagement 2.) add bluetooth use flag to pull in net-wireless/bluedevil We decided not on which (meta-)package. Another idea which came in my mind after the meeting, to add the flag to kde-base/solid-runtime.

Please sync in some hours to get the change. + + 15 Sep 2013; Johannes Huber <johu@gentoo.org> solid-runtime-4.11.1.ebuild: + Add optional RDEPENDS wrt bug #471362. + *** Bug 484824 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 484744 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** |
