Well, if XFCE 'satisfying use deps' USE flags are not excessive, I think th= ey=20 could stay in desktop (parent) profile of course as desktop profile is mean= t=20 for general use desktop.

Of course splitting desktop profile=20 *will* make it harder for them to have GNOME and KDE at the same time. But,= to=20 be clear, we're talking here mainly about default USE flags (not gnome-base= /*=20 entries in package.mask in KDE subprofile... hmm, jmbsvicetto? worth=20 considering... ;) ) Splitting profiles is to provide out of the box desktop specific solutions= =20 (because that's what majority uses afaik, though I don't have any poll to b= ack=20 my words), not to prevent anyone from mixing things - those may just need t= he=20 same package.use/make.conf effort to set it up (mainly to satisfy USE deps,= as=20 one can put recommended USE flags in +EAPI-1 IUSE in desktop environment=20 ebuilds after all). =2D-=20 regards MM --nextPart3209075.VYb5ugu3h3 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.11 (GNU/Linux) iEYEABECAAYFAkrjEYoACgkQFuHa/bHpVdvIfwCZAdCo+chRKdSgC+mOR2FZqZOY A/sAniq6lQtdrci94tUFv41ekX33w+2s =Y+Tq -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --nextPart3209075.VYb5ugu3h3--
