with kdeprefix everything lands in /usr/kde/<version> which is cool and |
| 21 |
usefull |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
without kdeprefix everything ends in /usr which is stupid and hurts you if you |
| 24 |
want to try different kde versions - or have several versions installed so you |
| 25 |
can always go back easily when the newest one breaks. But it is FHS compliant. |

At the beginning gentoo was 'screw stupid standards, do the sensible thing' - |
| 28 |
but in the mean time the 'if there is a standard we have to adhere to it no |
| 29 |
matter how idiotic' crowd has got way to much power. |

So k9copy wants the flag set in a special way and depends on kdepimlibs. Thank |

the devs for the mess. |
