I converted to KDE modular some time ago with considerable trepidation. Now I'm faced with the updates that came out this week, and I'd like to take advantage of the opportunity this offers to dispense with (that is, unmerge) the many parts of KDE I will never use.
The problem is obvious and unavoidable: there are 231 parts that currently are in my world file, and I do not know what all of them do. I can cherry-pick a few that are obvious throw-aways by removing them from world, and waiting to see if they get updated anyway because they're actually needed. Does anybody have advice about how to improve that process? Would it be better to remove all but the obvious keepers? I'm not looking forward to the pains-taking process of vetting each and every one of the 231, but I don't want to be spending the time to recompile the presumed multitude that I never ever use. -- Kevin O'Gorman, PhD -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
