Bug#327372: kdelibs4c2: Dependencies on libfam/gamin
Package: kdelibs4c2
Version: 4:3.4.2-3
Severity: normal
kdelibs depends on libfam, which isn turn is also provided by
gamin, is it necessary this dependency? Doesn't kde use kernel's
dnotify if available?
I've observed that gamin sometimes consumes 100% even if the whole system is
idle (amarok seems to cause it) and must be killed. Installing fam is an
overkill. If it's true that kde works with dnotify/inotify I don't see any
advantages or reason to requiere gamin or FAM.
