19 I set -semantic-desktop in my /etc/make.conf. I unmerged akonadi. Then
20 remerged:
21
22 kde-base/kdelibs
23 kde-base/gwenview
24 kde-base/kget
25 kde-base/dolphin
26 kde-base/kmail
27 kde-base/kdebase-meta
28 kde-base/kdeaddons-meta
29
30 These were all the packages that contained a semantic-desktop USE flag. Now I
31 get this:
32
33 # emerge -uatDv world
34
35 These are the packages that would be merged, in reverse order:
36
37 Calculating dependencies... done!
38 [nomerge ] kde-base/kdepim-meta-4.3.1 USE="(-kdeprefix)"
39 [ebuild N ] kde-base/akonadi-4.3.1 USE="(-aqua) -debug (-kdeprefix) -
40 semantic-desktop" 0 kB
41
42 Which I guess proves the point that Dirk is making. If I were to emerge
43 akonadi again, will it pop up everytime I start kmail, knode, etc?
