Even with > emerge I'm not that interested in adding all that crap to my system > right now. so it's just as i was supposing, it's mostly because it's a kde application... but hey, if you install rosegarden, you don't have to install all that crap to your system. not because of noteedit, that is ;) (which makes your "point against [noteedit]" pretty much irrelevant) or you don't use rosegarden either? (which pretty much makes *you* irrelevant to the LAU list) (just teasing, really!) :D sorry for the way i *had* to put it, i actually just liked the word play... heh... NOW SERIOUSLY: the way i see it packed under portage is a point against GENTOO, not against NOTEEDIT. really! i didn't have to apt-get kappfinder in order to use noteedit or anything like kdemultimedia (also kmid, or kmix, or arts, or mpeglib, or kscd?!? -- GENTOO REALLY SCARES ME HERE... I HAD BETTER OPINIONS ON IT!) (and yes, i *know* what i am talking about; of kde, debian uses *only* kdelibs, which is a nice way debian deals with kde apps.) maybe you should switch to debian? ;) don't get me wrong on this, i myself very much appreciate the gentoo project... i am even planning to try it... but i am not sure i'll try it anymore... the way you imply gentoo deals with kde apps kills all my enthusiasm about gentoo... i know kde is bloatware, but the way you imply gentoo deals with it makes it... scareware. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
