I see (I think). Please bear with me while I am catching up: the |
| 30 |
script will individually emerge every KDE component as opposed to the |
| 31 |
original meta packages which brought in with them their dependencies. |
| 32 |
The latter would not have been in the world file, but by virtue of the |
| 33 |
script they will now be added - unless of course --oneshot is used. |
