To keep the current behaviour, the kde metaebuild (and gnome and the other WMs) would have to depend on xorg-x11, which strictly speaking is unnecessary. Opinions? How can we educate the users to manually 'emerge xorg-x11'? Personally I'm in favor of updating the docs, making a big announcement on all channels, and preparing a nice bug to close duplicates against.

We'll also need to educate them about xorg-x11 not installing fonts any longer. The way I understood your metabuilds.txt, 'emerge xorg-x11 kde' would result in an unusable system without any fonts at all...


a useflag could solve the issue as well a all inclusive metaebuild for X.
