Without intending any criticism of the suggestion, particularly for this use case where a DE might be assumed, it looks very heavy on dependencies. On my system, it would require 90 packages minimum:
Well, as you point out, one's mileage may vary. If you already have KDE installed, then you'll likely have most of these dependencies already. On my system, I didn't, and the concrete disk-usage for the dependencies is as follows: 10 upgraded, 164 newly installed, 0 to remove and 90 not upgraded. Need to get 107 MB of archives. After this operation, 296 MB of additional disk space will be used. Worrying about such figures is an old habit (for me at least) that is long overdue breaking. This is still a drop in the ocean for my / partition, which even so is modestly sized by modern standards (92G). I've installed single applications on Macs that are larger than this, and I think that's often the case for Windows too. If tellico proves to be useful, than this is a price well worth paying. And if it doesn't, all this gets undone with a few simple apt commands. -- ⢀⣴⠾⠻⢶⣦⠀ ⣾⠁⢠⠒⠀⣿⡁ Jonathan Dowland ⢿⡄⠘⠷⠚⠋⠀ https://jmtd.net ⠈⠳⣄⠀⠀⠀⠀ Please do not CC me, I am subscribed to the list.
