Re: [gentoo-desktop] [kde-sunset] KDE/Trinity 3.5.12 inside or outside sunset

[Ladislav Laska]

Hello,

I have to agree, clean overlay would be better.

It would be really bad idea to apply patches to trinity, when we can
push them into trinity (if they're general enough). Anyway, many
things have changes, so I suppose they will be mostly outdated.

Regards Ladislav Laska
