So, why don't I run it now? Well, I found it a
complete pain to download
and recompile all of KDE again, just to do a security patch. If they
offered the ability, just to download a source code patch, that might have
been enough to keep me.
Well, there is.
But remove kde, it only
removes the exact programs that you specify.
Yes and No.
If you merge package XY, which depends on kdebase, it's normal that kdebase
gets merged as well.
If you unmerge XY, how should portage know that you want to remove kdebase as
well??
There is a option to remove all packages wich aren't depended on by any other
package.
Or you could get a list of packages, filter everything with kde, and remove
those.
Or just use one of the portage-gui's...
