Description Kris Kerwin 2005-05-27 22:46:48 UTC

With the addition of the kde-meta packages to the portage tree, I think that  
it would be a good idea to have the following virtuals:  
  
kde-base/kde & kde-base/kde-meta -> virtual/kde  
kde-base/kdebase & kde-base/kdebase-meta -> virtual/kdebase  
kde-base/kdegraphics & kde-base/kdegraphics-meta -> virtual/kdegraphics  
 
since both packages provide the same software. This would ease some dependency 
issues. 
 
Any questions or further clarifications, please feel free to email me. 
 
Thanks for all of your help!

Oops! 
 
I had meant to include an "etc" to include the other kde-meta derived packages. 
This is probably a good idea to be used throughout.

We depend on the split packages, not the meta ones (see e.g.
x11-themes/qinx-1.4.ebuild).
