[gentoo-dev] USE=desktop-file request

I'm a user of a KISS wm, which does not provide Windows™-like menus, desktop icons, etc. GUI software is called just by typing the binary name in PATH, just like any other software. For me the desktop-files are some kind of useless junk. Recently a lot of software were made harddep on

Re: [gentoo-dev] USE=desktop-file request

Unfortunately i doubt that we could help with that. I did not look into every software package from your list, but many of those packages did not have compile time switch for (not)using desktop-file-utils. If you are still needed to clean up files, that cause no harm to your system - i can only

Re: [gentoo-dev] USE=desktop-file request

Hi Sergey, It would be great to make the intallation of desktop-files optional, but I mostly concerned about the dependency on dev-util/desktop-file-utils. This dependency was introduced very recently, i.e. none of those packages had such dependency before and everythigh was working fine.
