IIRC mng support in Qt3 is optional. And I doubt you need it, so you |
| 23 |
can easily patch the Qt3 ebuild to pass -no-libmng to configure (or |
| 24 |
something like that), and you should be able to get rid of the |
| 25 |
dependency. |

The other (more obvious) alternative is importing lcms:0 in kde-sunset |
| 28 |
or in a local overlay, but as the announcement says, it "has serious |
| 29 |
security issues"... |
