No, I don't make wrong dependencies ;-), the main reason is the
packaging of the snapshots:
There you can find three packages, kdebase-runtime, kdebase-apps and
kdebase-workspace.
Currently the workspace part doesn't build anyway under windows (no need
to try).
The old kdebase package was made up of all three packages; the packages
only depended on the runtime part though. As it is easier for us to
follow the given rules, I split up the packages.
I have changed the package to be a virtual package now.
Please use kdebase-runtime and kdebase-apps instead for future builds.
regards
Patrick
