Hi, |
| 29 |
Think that at least some users have both Gnome&KDE (i for example). All |
| 30 |
this because there are some apps which are QT/KDE based and others are |
| 31 |
GTK/Gnome based. |
| 32 |
Using 'k3b' which requires QT/KDElibs, also kdebase-startkde just to |
| 33 |
have a working DE. Have full Gnome, but most time work using XFCE4. |
| 34 |
Initially when configuring my USE-flags took the default ones and put |
| 35 |
them (commented in /etc/make.conf) to see them and switch some ON/OFF. |
