For example, RSS NOW plasmoid from KDE4 from kde-base/plasma-addons will not show any RSS feed unless use flag RSS is set for kde-base/plasma-workspace. Ways to handle this: 1. Difficult: Prevent installation of such plasmoids if use flag is not set 2. Easy: Automatically set RSS use flag for kde-base/plasma-addons (there are no further dependencies, as far as I see) Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce:
Ideally, RSS NOW plasmoid should not be installed when rss USE flag is disabled - I'm wondering why it's not the case.
Added 'rss' USE flag for kdeplasma-addons and a patch making some plasmoids optional via this USE flag (namely rssnow and news, please report if there are any other). Added dependency on plasma-workspace[rss] to require RSS dataengine as well. As of >=kdeplama-addons-4.4.2-r1 Please reopen if I messed up something.
