I've been using KDE for a long time, for reasons that are no longer

I use gnome happily at work, both on Fedora and Ubuntu. All I need
from any of them is a panel with some favorites, and a pager for
multiple desktops.
I spend most of my time in vim, in the C program and documentation
toolchains or in a browser.
The reason I bring this up is that my account just froze on me from
running out of disk space. A little research showed that an
odd-sounding thing called nepomuk was using 7.2 G (SEVEN GIGS) in some
dotfiles. It turns out to be a KDE client - whatever that is. I've
got a lot of space here and there, but my /home partition was never
near full before.
Put "-semantic-desktop" in your make.conf. emerge -auDN world. emerge
-a --depclean. That should do it.
Is that even possible? Won't a number of KDE apps demand the
semantic-desktop use flag set?
For KDE 4.4, +semantic-desktop is mandatory, though you can still turn
off the services after installing them.
Honestly, for what the OP appears to need out of a desktop environment,
he'd be more than happy with Xfce or something and save a ton of disk
space.
How do you know what he needs? He probably wants KDE but without the
whole "Semantic Desktop" thingy.

this, so ditching it feels good.
and semantic-desktop was developed to help people with such workloads.
I don't understand your reply or what it answers.
