Description Anton 2006-11-12 01:41:53 UTC

Version:           3.5.5 (using KDE KDE 3.5.5)
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages
OS:                Linux

I have basic (kde-base/kdebase-metakde-base/kdebase-meta) kde installed and want to install akregator only. However akregator trying to pool a lot of other packages which I don't want:

[ebuild  N    ]      kde-base/ktnef-3.5.5  USE="arts kdehiddenvisibility -debug -kdeenablefinal -xinerama"

the main dependency is kde-base/kontactkde-base/kontact. I was wondering is it possible to make it optional?

Comment 2 Frank Osterfeld 2006-11-12 01:57:03 UTC

Akregator doesn't depend on kontact (gentoo probably ships the kontact plugin together with the main app or something) . It depends on libkdepim though, which draws in other stuff from kdepim. That again causes the dependencies to gnupg etc.

Comment 3 Anton 2006-11-12 03:53:45 UTC

I'm fine libkdepim only.
But I don't need gnupg and other staff.
So my wish is to be able to compile with less dependencies or without it at all.

Actually this is a packaging issue with your distrubtion, imho, so I'm closing it.
