A word of advice though, if I may, to anyone else who tries slimming plasma down: you do need kdedesktop, not just kdeworkspace. When I tried just the former of those two, I got an "all shell packages missing" error (or something like that) at plasma startup via sddm, together with a black screen. Windows opened and closed all right, but the system clearly wasn't happy. -- Regards, Peter.

Hmm. I see what you mean. Maybe this is the straw that makes me strip out all the stuff I don't need, by removing meta-packages and just installing what I want. After all, there's a limit to the number of web browsers a body might need. -- Regards, Peter.

( www-client/falkon ) It doesn't, it's the kdecore-meta package that depends on it, controlled by the webengine USE flag. qtwebengine doesn't require falkon at all, it's the other way round. -- Neil Bothwick "I need your clothes, your boots, and your tagline!" pgpmvhixCpSbP.pgp Description: OpenPGP digital signature
