If you want to have a sane but minimal set of useflags to start with, the recommendation is to use the main profile, e.g. for amd64 default/linux/amd64/13.0 The desktop profiles as e.g. default/linux/amd64/13.0/desktop are designed to provide a full-fledged desktop environment with all bells and whistles. The difference between desktop and desktop/kde or desktop/gnome is as far as I know rather small. [In general, the main difference between the profiles is default settings for useflags. Sometimes a profile also hard-enables or hard-disables a useflag.] If you intend to run a lightweight desktop environment, both the main profile and the desktop profile can be starting points; in one case you may want to enable single flags, in the other you may want to disable single flags... -- Andreas K.
