[...] You HAVE free choice. Unlike on windows you can compile all the KDE software yourself and not include baloo. And you can adjust the code to take it out.
Here we go again with the attitude. Not everyone who uses KDE and who doesn't want desktop search is a programmer. Some of us choose to use Linux/KDE precisely because it ISN'T Windows. If I wanted Windows, I'd USE Windows.
There isn't a single reasonable reason to not have baloo installed so there
You mean, "I can think of no reason that seems reasonable to me..."; there are PLENTY of reasons which are completely reasonable to those who hold those opinions. For example, if I was running KDE on a Raspberry Pi (which is not a ridiculous use case and it is - or was - entirely possible) then I definitely would NOT want Baloo installed simply because of the limitations of the platform (e.g. running off an SD card) and the need for a minimal but functional installation. -- ============================================================== Rodney Baker VK5ZTV rodney.baker@iinet.net.au ============================================================== -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kde+owner@opensuse.org
