I'm not sure what this means: (k)tdegraphics is
IMO a 'meta
package' which contains tde graphics applications, one of them beeing
kuickshow, isn't it ?
(in consequence, dropping the standalone application would
also remove it from tdegraphics, no ?)
Not to my understanding. I never built the standalone version of kuickshow and always have
built tdegraphics. I don't know that calling tdegrphics a meta package is a good
description. Seems to imply "bloat" although that might not have been your
intent. :) To me, tdegraphics is an important staple of the whole desktop:
kcoloredit
kcolorchooser
kfax
xf86gammacfg
kghostview
kiconedit
mrmlsearch
kolourpaint
kpdf
kpovmodeler
kruler
ksnapshot
svgdisplay
printnodetest
kuickshow
kview
kviewshell
kfaxview
kdvi
kooka
I use kolourpaint, kpdf, ksnapshot, and kuickshow almost every day.
Of course, this could lead into a discussion about a long-time wish of mine since the KDE3
days: to modularize the whole package system. The KDE4 team finally did this. Yes, that
would mean some sweat equity, but possibly that could be a reasonable R15 goal.
