Perhaps because a lot of software nowadays attempts to do everything at |
| 9 |
once. Maybe it plays sound attachments inside of the client. |

I recommend that you use the ‘-t’ portage flag in the future to see what |
| 17 |
pulls in what. I also recommend ‘-v’. |

Now, having said that, I don't see anything directly in the ebuild that |
| 20 |
would pull in those libraries. Here's however what I got when seeing |
| 21 |
what it will do on a system with gstreamer USE and no KDE: |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
# required by media-libs/phonon-gstreamer-4.7.1 |
| 24 |
# required by media-libs/phonon-4.7.1[gstreamer] |
| 25 |
# required by kde-base/kdelibs-4.12.0 |
| 26 |
# required by kde-base/korganizer-4.12.0 |
| 27 |
# required by kde-base/kmail-4.12.0 |
| 28 |
# required by kmail (argument) |
| 29 |
>=media-plugins/gst-plugins-meta-0.10-r8:0.10 vorbis |
| 30 |
|
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
So maybe KDE is pulling in something. |
