Description Matthew Millar 2017-05-06 18:58:06 UTC

The requirement for this superficial module and dependencies to be compiled and installed for a working KDE desktop is unnecessary.

Compilation and installation of Open Collaborative Services should be provided as optional feature within CMakeLists.txt, for users such as myself who have no time or interest in "customising" their desktop, and don't want to waste time and resources compiling and storing an unused feature.

That's added work for zero gain. It is not a big dependency.
