It's a question of the definition of "independent". E.g. KCoreAddons and Solid are independent because you can use either one without being forced to use the other. The fact that they are released together doesn't change that. KCoreAddons and KIO are partially independent because KIO depends on KCoreAddons, but still there is a huge improvement there compared to the kdelibs4 situation where such inter-library-dependencies were far too numerous so it was basically all-or-nothing. Having split two such libraries still helps tremendously, since one can use KCoreAddons without using KIO. The fact that KIO-5.10 requires KCoreAddons-5.10 is IMHO no different from the fact that QtGui-5.6 requires QtCore-5.6. Are you saying that Qt didn't "go all the way" or didn't "split properly" because of the fact that QtGui-5.6 requires QtCore-5.6? (same thing with other Qt libs from other modules than qtbase, this isn't limited to qtbase) I still don't understand why this is fine for Qt and not for KDE Frameworks. -- David Faure, fa...@kde.org, http://www.davidfaure.fr Working on KDE Frameworks 5 _______________________________________________ Kde-frameworks-devel mailing list Kde-frameworks-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-frameworks-devel
