Why not installing noX and installing that packages that you need?

CS Virtual Travel Bug: VF6G5D

Because it still drags in a pile of unwanted dependencies. From the  KLyDE site, the reasons for creating it.

"It involves factoring optional components of the KDE desktop out of the base installation into subpackages that the main packages only have weak dependencies upon, allowing a minimal installation without them.  This targets big lumps of ram/cpu usage and objects of user hatred like Nepomuk and Akonadi, but also smaller items like Activities and Attica (social desktop support) and non-core window decorations/styles/etc"

if one would create a klyde package (or maybe a kde-lite package) and maintain it, nox would be a perfect way to start. From my point of view there is no need for another flavour in siduction.

First thing I do after a install is disable nepomuk, strigi(not with 4.10.2) and akonadi, except for this install with KDE 4.10.2. for testing, it is the best since the *4* series, but, still sucks

Anyway this could be done during the build process, I don't think so, but asked anyways in the sake of lite :)

Until those packages are not needed to build/install/operate it will be hard to make a truly lite KDE IMHO
