Agreed. I didn't ignore the thread, just ialexand. FWIW adding him brings my ignore count to only 4 total in over 10 years on LQN. Not too shabby.

Well there is more internet churn with the (well deserved) hubub over Slackware v15 but some people consider saying something good about something they don't use as being tantamount to attack on what they use so I suppose the more childish of them feel the need to lash out..

I wasn't comparing the complexity of them (and I wasn't even comparing Plasma5 to XFCE, it was with lxqt), but rather that the heavy lifting to get them ready for Slackware is done by people other than Pat. Alien Bob handles both Plasma5 and lxqt... rworkman handles XFCE.

Can you please try to start comprehending what I write in my posts rather than reading a few words and coming to the wrong assumption of what I wrote?

It's possible that he's trying to socialize
It does not necessarily do it well, but in the current times, the intention is commendable

And even silly is your arrogant attitude!

Did you know how many nights I spent trying to solve what in the end was probably ONE PERCENT from this build system of Plasma5?

I lost my nights for YEARS! Now, let me enjoy what I fighten for!

You come here to argument that Plasma5 shall be removed, because there's NOT also Gnome3?

Did you know WHY there's NO Gnome3? Simply: NO ONE cared about it.

You care about Gnome3? Feel free to spend your time packing it! Go and work, you arrogant!

Now let me to enjoy with serenity the Plasma5, you ignorant full of arrogance!

And for your knowledge: the KDE is called the company which produces the software. The proper name of the software is Plasma5.

Your posts have null meanings. You just keep repeating things.

You're funny
You just got the wrong forum
But it's distracting, anyway :-)

I don't care GNOME and KDE (Plasma or Хуязма, call it as you want) equally. You don't get my point at all. Looks like all your intellect was lost on Plasma nights.

As do you... except the things you keep repeating are wrong.

I'm not sure about that
If his goal was to make a 14 pages thread, he's pretty good

What? You may want to say Плазма-хуязма eventually. Which means in English something like "Plasma flow"

I got well your point that you have no clue about what you talk, specially that there was people, starting mainly with Mr. Hameleers, who struggled for years to create a build system for Plasma5 which combines simplicity of usage with a best packaging for Slackware.

And that you even have no clue how Slackware is packaged.

Yet another demonstration of your arrogance...

You believe that your intelligence is highly superior of mine - and everybody else here.

BUT, until now, those claims are just words - then arrogance.

Please demonstrate your superior intelligence with acts, like yours own SUPER-BUILD for Gnome3 or whatever.

Go to work!

My dad can beat up your dad.

8bit

Nah... it's apparently more about beating dead horses here...

Tough luck. Looks like you have suffered a severe malfunction of your logic circuits. We are talking about this Plasma, not that Plasma.
The Plasma we are talking about is quite easy to compile. Even if you shovel in all the useless garbage it only increases the compile time, not the complexity.


Cheers.

I am so disappointed that this wisdom was not followed.

I am going to jump in again, equating Plasma5 to GNOME when it was still included in Slackware is dubious at best. I do not recall what version Slackware last shipped with GNOME, I know it was prior, but even the last iteration of Slackware that shipped with GNOME, it was rather broken - so Pat did the logical thing and dropped it. KDE5 a.k.a Plasma5, is not like GNOME, it has been implemented by AlienBob rather well, and Pat adopted it - and nothing suggests that the iteration of Plasma5 to be broken as GNOME was; when it was last included i.e. options not working, or outright errors when having Plasma5 launched. GNOME had this, errors on startup, and some features were broken.
