As a Gentoo user my humble opinion is that being able to install single parts of things like KDE is much more important than compile-time. |

Specially huge packages like KDE which takes real long time to compile anyway are things one would probably compile "over-night" if one wants the whole package, so additional 1 or 2 hours wont count. And if one doesnt want to install the whole thing, one would be glad to be able |

to choose what to install and what not. |

Make it so, and keep up the good work. :-) |
