 |
|
Hi, after recent upgrade to kde5 I was left with this list orphaned packages:
| Code: | | All selected packages: =kde-apps/nsplugins-15.08.3 =kde-apps/kfind-15.08.3 =kde-apps/kgpg-15.08.3 =kde-apps/amor-15.08.3 =kde-apps/konq-plugins-15.08.3 =kde-apps/kuser-15.08.3 =kde-apps/kglobalaccel-15.08.3 =kde-apps/kuiserver-15.08.3 =kde-apps/pairs-15.04.3 =kde-apps/kde-base-artwork-15.08.3 =kde-apps/kfmclient-15.08.3 =kde-apps/superkaramba-15.08.3 =kde-apps/konqueror-15.08.3 |
I have kde-meta-15.12.3 installed, why aren't those packages pulled in as its dependency? |

Could it be that kde-meta is a collection of packages instead of a package.
Removing it will mark all packages under it as orphaned.
If you have any packages installed that you did not install using kde-meta then the dependencies of those packages will not be marked as orphaned.
Did you try adding these to your @world favorites file?
EXTRA: I'm just making a guess here. |

amor, pairs, superkaramba and artwork packages are dead. kuser and kgpg are conflicting with KDE PIM 5, thus are removed from meta.
The remaining packages so far are not part of kde-apps-meta for no particular reason - they are only ported to kf5 in the 16.12 release at the end of the year, if someone really wants a really old insecure konqueror, they can emerge it manually.
