Resulting from discussion during last Gentoo KDE team meeting taking place = 22=20 Oct 2009 at #gentoo-meetings (summary fill be available soon), having Gento= o=20 GNOME team representative, it's been decided to go ahead with splitting=20 desktop profile to DE-specific subprofiles, to avoid bloat and provide desk= top=20 specific separation which should result in desktop subprofiles being actual= ly=20 practical. It's been proposed to: =2D keep 'desktop' profile but strip it from any desktop specific features = and=20 settings, making it default recommended choice for anyone using non-KDE and= =20 non-GNOME desktop environment, yet avoiding USE flags bloat. Any other DE i= s=20 free to join and create own DE-specific subprofile if needed. =2D create 'KDE' (or 'kde') and 'GNOME' (or 'gnome') subprofiles within=20 'desktop' profile and move any desktop specific things there. This should i= n=20 theory allow us to not add 'recommended' IUSE defaults to desktop specific= =20 packages, but keep those settings in profile - making profile effectively '= out=20 of the box' solution for those who need it. If you have any comments, suggestions, important notices regarding this=20 change, please keep discussion in gentoo-desktop mailing list.
