I spend most of my time in vim, in the C program and documentation
toolchains or in a browser.

The reason I bring this up is that my account just froze on me from
running out of disk space. =A0A little research showed that an

Put "-semantic-desktop" in your make.conf. =A0emerge -auDN world.= =A0emerge
-a --depclean. =A0That should do it.



Is that even possible? Won't a number of KDE apps demand the semantic-d= esktop use flag set?


For KDE 4.4, +semantic-desktop is mandatory, though you can still turn
off the services after installing them.

Honestly, for what the OP appears to need out of a desktop environment,
he'd be more than happy with Xfce or something and save a ton of disk s= pace.

How do you know what he needs? =A0He probably wants KDE but without the who= le "Semantic Desktop" thingy.
