So there is a strong agreement that KDE 3 should be trimmed. Before aja@ goes tedu and remove whole x11/kde with all dependants, here is a proposal that keeps some unique parts of KDE 3, while removing most heavy parts. This should help bulk builders by minimizing time spent in tagged builds. Further plans include trimming of x11/kde/base3 and, maybe, others, allowing to get rid of dpb tags entirely.
There are three lists below. I'm asking all interested parties take attention at the third one, and tell your opinions (either in public or privately, at your option). Thank you all in advance for reading. :) 1. Things going to go: editors/kile have KDE4+ counterpart games/kslide have KDE4+ counterpart (palapeli) graphics/digikam have KDE4+ counterpart graphics/gwenview have KDE4+ counterpart graphics/gwenview-i18n have KDE4+ counterpart graphics/kimdaba use Digikam, dude! graphics/kipi-plugins have KDE4+ counterpart graphics/libkdcraw have KDE4+ counterpart graphics/libkexif have KDE4+ counterpart graphics/libkexiv2 have KDE4+ counterpart graphics/libkipi have KDE4+ counterpart misc/ktimeclock one more reminder with ugly interface? multimedia/k3b have KDE4+ counterpart multimedia/kaffeine have KDE4+ counterpart net/ktorrent have KDE4+ counterpart productivity/taskjuggler we want to get rid of x11/kde/pim3 sysutils/filelight have KDE4+ counterpart sysutils/krename have KDE4+ counterpart x11/kde/addons3 unuseful without KDE desktop x11/kde/admin3 outdated x11/kde/edu3 have KDE4+ counterparts x11/kde/games3 have KDE4+ counterparts x11/kde/graphics3 have KDE4+ counterparts x11/kde/multimedia3 have KDE4+ counterparts x11/kde/network3 have KDE4+ counterparts, a lot of holes x11/kde/pim3 have KDE4+ counterparts, a lot of holes x11/kde/sdk3 outdated x11/kde/utils3 have KDE4+ counterparts x11/kde/webdev outdated x11/kmplayer ETOOMANYMPLAYERS x11/quadkonsole superseded by Yakuake and tmux x11/tellico have KDE4+ counterpart x11/yakuake have KDE4+ counterpart x11/qinx unuseful without KDE desktop 2. Things going to stay for now: cad/klogic should be updated to KDE4+ version games/kbilliards unique, not ported to KDE4+ games/taxipilot unique, not ported to KDE4+ inputmethods/uim,-kde last thing to go math/kst unique, not ported to KDE4+ multimedia/kguitar unique, not ported to KDE4+ sysutils/knutclient should be updated to KDE4+ version x11/kde/accessibility3 last thing to go x11/kde/arts3 required by x11/kde/libs3 x11/kde/base3 common dependency x11/kde/libs3 common dependency 3. Things that I'm not sure about: audio/amarok very friendly player, but what about Clementine? devel/kdbg any users? mail/kbiff any users? x11/kdirstat does filelight supersede it? x11/krusader the only x11/kde/bindings3 user x11/kde/bindings3 only for krusader x11/kde/okle any users? x11/kde/toys3 any users? x11/kountdown any users?
