When I did that, it complained that cantor was built with no backend.
Did you get the same thing? It said this here:
WARN (postinst)
You have decided to build cantor with no backend.
To have this application functional, please do one of below:
# emerge -va1 '='kde-base/cantor-4.6.4 with 'R' USE flag enabled
# emerge -vaDu sci-mathematics/maxima
So, I did the later and it needs to emerge several packages that I
didn't have before. Looks like I can either have a bit of bloat on one
side or a bit of bloat on the other side. o_O
I mention just in case you didn't notice the message and then something
borks on next login.

Yes, it complained about the same thing. Since I don't know what cantor
is I figure I don't much care if it has a backend or not. :-)
Seriously, I haven't noticed any issues yet not having the backend.
If I find something broken I need then I'll do as you did.
Thanks,
Todd

You may not need it unless you jump into the menu and go to Education >
Mathematics > Cantor. I don't even know how it works so if you are the
same as me, you won't need it.
