Is this ignorance or FUD?
It must be FUD because it has already been stated countless times in
this
thread that this service can be switched off.
Just to come full circle, the thread started because the kmail is now
requiring the semantic-desktop USE flag. So the consensus seems to be
that if you use kmail, then you have to compile the semantic desktop
features, then go back and turn off using the semantic desktop.
Agreed, this thead seems to have been blown out of proportion really.
One thing is if you install a fullblown DE, then having semantic-desktop
is fine, it's also fine that the DE forces you to build it, being that it
can be turned off. However I think that random apps that are a part of the
DE, but can be deselected, shouldn't have to force the users into building
anything that the DE requires. It just seems silly that if you want to use
the newest version of kate, kmail etc. that semantic-desktop is forced
upon you, when you're not interested in having the entire DE.
That's just my take on it anyway.
