Speaking for myself, I'd just emerge 'em, then unmerge and mask them (so
that when upgrades to the wanted/installed package groups became
available, they would show up in an emerge -u*** world), but you might
also be interested in this initiative I just saw in the Gentoo Weekly
Newsletter. Apparently the devs on the dev list are working on breaking
down KDE into smaller bites:
"Broken-up" KDE ebuilds
Dan Armak[26] has released individual KDE ebuilds that allow single KDE
applications to be built without pulling in other, perhaps unneeded KDE
applications. This is one of the most frequently requested functions and
is now available at least experimentally.
