--- Comment #4 from Duncan <1i5t5.dun...@cox.net> --- Update: The devs are discussing a patch that makes appstream optional in d3923 on phabricator: https://phabricator.kde.org/D3923 Gentoo/kde did get an appstream-git ebuild in their overlay, and I hadn't tried patching the appstream dep out yet so I thought I'd try it, but appstream failed to build for me at head and at the 0.10.5 and 0.10.4 tags. Something about no *.gmo files in the po dir. So after updating the gentoo bug (which you can look at for the details, link's above) and now this one, I'm going to try the d3923 patch to make appstream optional, next. The good news is that the appstream dep /does/ appear to be reasonably lite, as these things go. No huge deps chain. While having it required is certainly irritating, assuming the broken building can be fixed, it looks like the dep is relatively lite, so a decision to keep it required isn't as severe as it might be. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
