The reason is that KDE4 is a new product and has nothing to do with KDE3
other than the name. And another reason is the problem I'm describing
in this very thread which should have not been a problem if KDE4 had its
own tree. Now I'm required to have non-straightforward voodoo performed
to get things right just because the devs made a wrong decision.
Another problem, this time not technical. I just don't want many of
those packages in my world file. I want to use depclean and have those
packages removed when the package that depends on them is also removed.
The depclean feature just got useless for those packages.
Anyone still thinks it was a good idea to have KDE4 use the same tree
with KDE3? This is was clearly a wrong decision.
Workarounds are welcome.
