Can you make a list of files in the giant tarball aren't included in the
credist.txt list?

To make myself clearer, the tar ball includes a few binary rpms and a
installer blob. Both icc and ifc tar ball include the mkl, idb and some
common library rpms. If we go for a kde-split with a mirror
restrict approach, users would still have to download the big (~800Mb)
tar balls. Only users with use of all (icc, idb, ifc, mkl, ipp, tbb)
intel software would benefit of downloading them. It is also the fact
Intel has a history of changing their packaging system. Not to
mention that a rpm split seems to me lot simpler to maintain and
quicker to package for me than the kde-split mirror-restricted approach,
and the fact my interest for these packages is limited.

Hello Torsten, thanks for your interest.
Let me quote myself from a recent reply on a similar question:

  for the quickest summary possible these steps are needed:
  - make me have and take time for it (soon again as planned)
  - fix server performance to not take 10 seconds per gentoo-submission
(my alchemy code is partly stupid, now i know)
  - move batch processing upstream (depends on upstream co-op)
  - get more gentoo people join coding after
(http://soc.gentooexperimental.org/projects/stats/issues)

That's possible, yes.  Please elaborate more on motivation and details.

Yes, corrected again. The original came out in 2006, whatever the
timestamp on the site says. The _p* was a CVS snapshot that was added
to the tree years later.

Correct. The snapshot should have been named _pre20070403.

And the "unreasonable" goal is done.

kde-base/arts is masked, remaining unmasked ebuilds fixed, and USE arts
is temporarily masked in base/use.mask until kde-base/* is wiped out of
KDE 3.5.10.

There is a bug with ffmpeg for ppc which is blocking vlc-1.0.2 stabilization.
Please, consider just dropping arts support from 0.9.10 instead of removing the
ebuild. The ffmpeg bug isn't simple enought to be fixed for the end of the week.

Thanks.
