<PRE>i didn't want to be seen as offensive here, this was just a remark from what
i've seen, and was odd TO ME. and i'm definately not the allknowing god here.
wrt to the specifics, that's not what i'm talking about. if i thought these
were bugs that *needed* fixing, it'd have filed them as such, these are merely
observations i made. perhaps some can easily be improved, perhaps not.
regardless of that, if something would be wrong (and i'm not saying it is),
lack of manpower doesn't remove it's wrongness, it just means it's not as
important and it's something for later. (and besides *wrong* is often quite
relative)
to *what* you are saying i don't disagree at all... the way you say it does
come off as a bit defensive. as if you took my original message as an annoyance
and an offensive statement (which i definately didn't mean to do)
no hard feelings...

</I>><i> i completely understand your point, i'm not saying these are packaging
</I>><i> mistakes at all.
</I>><i>
</I>><i> but for something qt, it doesn't make much sense to have gnome-keyring code,
</I>><i> except for when there would be kwallet and gnome-keyring plugins.
</I>><i>
</I>><i> 1. this more that xscreensaver requires chbg (does kscreensaver use this
</I>><i> part? if not, maybe xscreensaver can be packaged separately), or chbg
</I>><i> requires gtk+ code (maybe recode would be better to be gtk/qt independant)
</I>><i>
</I>><i> 6. about gwenview, does it actually use these kipi-plugins all the time?
</I>><i> does it use all of them, or just some kipi-plugins (if they are available).
</I>><i> if latter, it might be better to suggest the specific ones alone, instead
</I>><i> of all of them.
</I>><i>
</I>><i> 2, i understand for skype, but it's quite the dirty solution, perhaps a
</I>><i> getter with requirements is better than just having everyone installing
</I>><i> 32deps...
</I>><i>
</I>><i>
</I>><i> this indeed is a list of links that exist that i found odd, since they could
</I>><i> be more abstract written and thus not directly link to each other.
