Subject: [gentoo-desktop] KDE live ebuilds and the kdeprefix USE flag default

1 Hi,

3 I wanted to raise this, and it should possibly be an issue we discuss at
4 the next meeting. Should all live ebuilds default to +kdeprefix?
5
6 Personally I think they should. Anyone wanting an all -kdeprefix system
7 can set -kdeprefix in their make.conf, and those of us keeping a stable
8 in -kdeprefix, and a live in +kdeprefix can continue to do this.

10 When I originally committed the eclass changes to the default for live
11 ebuilds this was the case. It was since changed without any discussion.
12 I think the previous behaviour represents the most flexible approach for
13 our user and development community.
14
15 Is there a flaw in this logic? As far as I can see anyone wanting the
16 current behaviour can add a line to their make.conf, the old behaviour
17 is impossible to reproduce now without maintaining a patched
18 kde4-base.eclass.

20 Thanks,
