Yes, I noticed that '-meta' didn't install everything ; anyway, I use an @-file when install/updating KDE + similar. I was a bit shocked 1st time, when I left the machine to go to sleep while I did the same myself, then when I woke up & came back to it, I found that the fans weren't running, but that's part of computer sleep too.
