I did not seem to have the problems that Noah did on my wife's Gentoo
box. I only had to emerge 4 KDE packages to get noteedit built. That
said I chose to build 2.8.0 as the noteedit page said it was the
curent stable version. So much for that being true:

Maybe I should try an earlier version one of these days.

so it's just as i was supposing, it's mostly because it's a kde

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. is it because noteedit is a kde app and most of
us are gnome
supporters?
localhost mp3 # emerge -pv noteedit
These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

I have to admit that is definately a point against it. Even with
emerge I'm not that interested in adding all that crap to my system
right now.
