That's a strange name for it.

By definition, a placebo makes you _think_ that it did something
when in-fact it actually did absolutely nothing at-all.

if qca can be moved from /l to /kde

As some time back didier request , sddm can be moved from /kde to /l

The reason is sddm cxan be used alone with xfce , and sddm is no kde spicific package.

Or move to /xap , cause is a graphical login interface.

But never understand why sddm is under /kde series.

Probably because KDE choose it to be the successor of the KDE Display Manager for Plasma 5
And is maintained, among others, by KDE devs

Nope
I never said it's a part of KDE, but KDE devs are heavily involved in the project

IMO, this eliminates all 'confusion'.

Fontconfig 2.15.0 was released a few weeks back. Maybe it is time to give a newer version a try? I am all about "if it ain't broke dont fix it" but 2.13.92 is pushing five years old now.

I have given many of these a try, and so far every newer version has absolutely destroyed font rendering. It seems to be something changed in the library itself rather than a configuration issue, since replacing just the library and running it against the existing configs has the same effect.

But since I haven't tried 2.15.0 yet, I'll do so.

Yep.... it wasn't broken so they broke it ?

Thanks!

This make more easy to install xfce alone for people no want mixing desktop plasma + xfce , and go alone under xfce.

With this movement all can do only plasma or only xfce , or boot ...all options are now more easy.

No _all_ options.

The option of a "100% Xless system" still requires manually eliminating
many, many packages that are in L which can only be used if X is installed.

ffmpeg requires X libraries therefore it should be moved from L and into either x or xap

Heck... mplayer is already in xap for that very same reason.

This same logic applies to everything else which requires X

But, as I've stated before... this is just my own BS opinion.

Xless is not a installation option.

kde and xfce are options when install and now can go with xfce alone with a single package moved.

Move 1 package is a reasonable request , move 20 30 or more packages are not.
