I strongly disagree. Splitting KDE SC up more is a step in the right direction as it allows for easier control about what to install. > I am afraid that for Slackware, the bloat in KDE packages is not > acceptible from a maintenance point of view. Again, I disagree. Yes, it's a bit more work but it reduces the "bloat" for users in the end. Most people don't need everything KDE SC has to offer and, thus, it's well worth some effort. > If there are no ways around this, then we are seriously considering > the removal of KDE from the Slackware distribution and turning support > over to willing third parties.

I suppose you've gotten rid of X.org, too? :-) Best regards, Wulf
