Who says that  you need virtuoso to run KDE4?

If you don't need it, you don't install it.
It's like installing debian with Oracle, and afterwards complain that Debian needs Oracle... sigh...
I did not deliberately download and install nepomuk, it came down as part and parcel of a regular update and I also didn't say that I needed virtuoso to run KDE4 - perhaps you should read emails properly before launching into a sarcastic and unhelpful retort, Schelstraete. You will see that what I +did+ write was that nepomuk claims it needs virtuoso. So aside from your spurious analogy with Oracle, do you have anything worthwhile to contribute?

    Hi all

    Although I am logging into Gnome DE on an up-to-date Squeeze
    system, I
    receive a message at login that declares Nepomuk requires virtuoso
    soprano to work.  Having looked nepomuk up via Google, it seems
    like it
    is something from our KDE friends, but using apt-cache search I don't
    see anything called virtuoso soprano to draw down to satisfy nepomuk.

    My question is: how does one satisfy nepomuk and/ or is nepomuk even
    necessary?

    Also, is it just me or do other folk here also find that KDE seems
    to be
    pulling in loads of dependencies ... databases, nepomuk (which wants
    virtuoso soprano), etc. just to operate? Seems like a lot of
    overhead is
    required to prop up KDE4.* these days.

    Anyway, any suggestions re: the nepomuk issue?

    Cheers

    AG
