17 The list of things that the plasma profiles add to the system can be
18 found in ${PORTDIR}/profiles/targets/desktop/plasma/. The
19 make.defaults and package.use in there show which USE flags a default
20 plasma install would need (in addition to the standard desktop profile
21 and the flags enabled by default in the ebuilds). Note that most of
22 the changes are either a) disabling things in some old KDE 4 stuff
23 that hasn't been ported completely, to just have the bits still
24 required on a mostly-ported system, and b) choosing which
25 implementation (Qt4/Qt5) on packages that require you to choose (the
26 profile ends up enabling USE="qt4 qt5" for most packages, this turns
27 off one of them for some packages).
