I completely understand how you feel. But, I'm enjoying this break from
Gentoo. Note I said "break", not "leave behind".
It will take 3 to 6 weeks for me to make up my mind what monster Dell I
want next, assault Purchasing to make them approve it then have it
built in Ireland and shipped to ZA.
That's about enough time I think to run into the Ubuntu "you will do it
our way with the deps we want you to have" philosophy enough times to
drive me back to gentoo. But the next machine will not have KDE on it -
all this RAM nonsense started by trying to get Akonadi to work, for very
loose definitions of "work", such as "show me my mail sometime today"
e17 beckons.
