+Title: Nepomuk removal
+Author: Johannes Huber <johu@gentoo.org>
+Content-Type: text/plain
+Posted: 2015-08-11
+Revision: 1
+News-Item-Format: 1.0
+Display-If-Installed: dev-db/virtuoso-server
+
+With KDE SC 4.13.0 release the default semantic desktop search engine
+switched from Nepomuk to Baloo.[1] This change was honoured in Gentoo
+by changing the semantic-desktop use flag to cover the new engine and
+moving the old to nepomuk use flag.
+
+The underlaying storage backend for Nepomuk aka Virtuoso DB has a lot
+of unsolved upstream issues[2], therefore we will remove it. This means
+packages with build options on the old stack will drop them. Other
+packages which hard requiring it will be removed.
+
+If you are still using Nepomuk you can switch to Baloo by globally
+enable semantic-desktop and disabling nepomuk use flag in
+/etc/portage/make.conf or using one of the kde desktop profiles.
