14 If you do not want a piece of software, why should you install it?
15 Installing and not using it instead of not installing it at all, is the
16 wrong way and (to my opinion) it is defintely not the Gentoo way.
17 Well, I have drawn the conclusions and got rid of kmail and am on the
18 verge of migrating the whole desktop. I loved kde-3.5, I seriously
19 tried kde-4.*, but I could never befriend with it. And one point I
20 detaste is that "Social Semantic Desktop" thing (as Nepomuk is
21 characterized on its afore mentioned wikipedia page). For me it is just
22 another instance of what Kant called "selbstverschuldete
23 Unmündigkeit" (self-incurred immaturity).
