But then the question isn't whether there are a number of soft dependencies, but in the case of semantic-desktop whether -it- is a soft dependency. Like previously stated, I don't use kmail, nor do I intend to (I at least think I mentioned it). This is just my take on the matter of whether it is truly necessary, or even a good idea to have symantic-desktop as a hard dependency.
No, it's not a soft dependency. Yes, it's a hard dependency. Yes, it's a good idea. Yes, it's necessary. No, no amount of pointless whining about "bloat" is going to change things.
If you want to use KDE-4 applications, you use semantic desktop. If you don't want to use semantic desktop, you don't use KDE-4 applications.
Yay for choice. --Mike
