Does anybody know why Kate wants to install pulseaudio on OpenBSD? This would be a perfect IDE.

   useradd: Warning: home directory `/var/run/pulse' doesn't exist, and -m was not specified

Openbsd pkg dependencies tend to be fairly coarse grained, so if you depend on KDE, you get all of KDE.

thank you for the useful reply. :-)

For the few people that might be looking for a light IDE option for OpenBSD Geany is available and works really well.

For text to speech.

Yeah, that seems to be the likely reason. But I am not sure why that ends up with pulse. But I am not the OpenBSD packager for that.
