For people already running kde it's ok, but for the rest of us it's a bit ridiculous, isn't it? I used to use a few "k" apps in the 3 days, they were small and easily integrated into the system. Now kde is like it's own OS, so they've basically eliminated their apps from consideration of non-kde users. Not that it matters much to me, one of the strengths of gentoo is how many ways there are to do a given task. But there are quite a few kde zealots who seem to be completely unaware of what we mean by "fast, light, standalone". I guess some people didn't experience the 80s or 90s. :) -- caveat utilitor ♫ ❤ ♫ ❤ ♫ ❤ ♫ ❤
