Hi there,

tried the gentoo way... (usually I'm working on debian boxes)
and I'm really glad to see that it works fine :D

Two points are a little bit confusing to me:
:?: Why isn't it possible to exclude programs from kde packages using a USE Variable.
The default ./configure script from KDE offers the ability to exclude unwanted packages from the compile-process (using the DONOTCOMPILE* environment variable)

:?: Do I have to recompile the whole KDE stuff when changing some deps (e.g. adding cups), or is it possible to remain the compiled stuff on the disk without an cleanup ?

BTW: Good work !!

*I'm not 100% sure about the exact name... could be NOTCOMPILE too...

I saw similary threads like https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=732.

But there aren't any good hints in it, so I posted the above questions...

BTW: I'm search inside emerge for an solution to add DONOTCOMPILE into the script...[/url]

unfortunately youre only real options are to eithe export DONOTCOMPILE (or whatever it is) and then emerge kde
or else go ahead and install everything, then go find the individual makefiles for the programs you dont want, and do a make uninstall (look at the ebuild man page for info on how to unpack an ebuild without autocompiling it)[/i]
