SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS macOS: Catalina I'had never installed any KDE software on this Mac before this. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I can not see any dependency there that is unneeded. I will be grateful if you can point which of those is unneeded.
another bug report after installation of okular in macos via homebrew: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=426338
I know from Linux that dependencies may exist. I am newby to installing Linux software on MacOS, so I didn't expect soo many dependencies. But this installation just took too long via Homebrew, and made my MacBook ventillator run fast for about one hour. The installation was successful with minor bugs, which I reported under: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=426338 (In reply to Albert Astals Cid from comment #1) > I can not see any dependency there that is unneeded.
