The way I'm slimming things down, I removed kde-meta from world, and then did emerge -p --depclean. I look over the (*LONG*) list and when I see an application I use, I add it to my world file with emerge -n. After I'm fairly sure I've caught everything I'll let the depclean actually remove packages.
This is pretty much the sanest way of doing this I think. Just remove all kde-base stuff from world, use --depclean --pretend to see what wants to be removed, and add things back in with the --noreplace option. The only thing I would caution on are the artsplugin-foo packages, particularly artsplugin-xine, artsplugin-audiofile, and artsplugin-akode. Removing these can have some strange effects on kde, like refusing to play certain media files. -Richard -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
