mlt/mtt++ do have dependency value (I forget which
package, but I chased that dependency down 2 or 3 years
ago and it was still worth keeping even being i686 only).
If I recall correctly knetworkmanager8 AND kpowersave ARE required for QT3
3.5.13 builds. Let make sure our decisions are technically correct and not
simply based on whether anyone chooses to build them anymore.
IMO, I would prefer a GIT repo which is relevant to the current development trunk (less
code to maintain, less code to look through in case of bug searching, less code to build,
less building time, less of all :) )
Yes, some of the mentioned packages may be required for building older TDE versions (such
as 3.5.13), but we have tags and as I already said, a simple git checkout would restore
your local repo to the exact point of when a particular version was tagged and built in a
matter of seconds, including folders no longer present in the current repo.
Anyhow, just my 2 cents.
