KDE Community ships sirst translation and service release of the 4.1
dree desktop, containing numerous bugfixes, Performance Improvements
and Translation Updates.
Pretty much all applications have received the developers' attention,
resulting in a long list of bugfixes and improvements. The most significant
changes are:
* Significant performance, interaction and rendering correctness
improvements in KHTML and Konqueror, KDE's web browser
* User interaction, rendering and stability fixes in Plasma,
the KDE4 desktop shell
* PDF backend fixes in the document viewer Okular
* Fixes in Gwenview, the image viewer's thumbnailing, more
robust retrieval and display of images with broken metadata
* Stability and interaction fixes in KMail
New Ports:
- graphics/kcoloredit
* KColorEdit is a palette files editor. It can be used
for editing color palettes and for color choosing and
naming.
- graphics/kgraphviewer
* KGraphViewer is a GraphViz DOT graph viewer for KDE. The
GraphViz programs are free-software layout engines for graphs.
KGraphViewer displays the graphs in a modern, user-friendly GUI
with all the power of a well integrated KDE application.
- graphics/kiconedit
* KIconEdit is designed to help create icons for KDE using the standard
icon palette.
- graphics/skanlite
* Skanlite is a simple image scanning application that does nothing
more than scan and save images. Skanlite can open a save dialog for
every image scanned or save the images immediately in a specified
directory with auto-generated names and format. The user can also
choose to show the scanned image before saving.

notes can be found at:

While not a very exciting release in terms of features,
3.5.10 brings a couple of nice bugfixes and translation
updates to those who choose to stay with KDE 3.5. The
fixes are thinly spread across KPDF with a number of crash
fixes, KGPG and probably most interesting various fixes
in kicker, KDE3's panel:
* Improved visibility on transparent backgrounds
* Themed arrow buttons in applets that were missing them
* Layout and antialiasing fixes in various applets

Specifically, newer autoconf (> 2.13) has different semantic of the
configure target. In short, one should use --build=CONFIGURE_TARGET
instead of CONFIGURE_TARGET directly. Otherwise, you will get a warning
and the old semantic may be removed in later autoconf releases.
To workaround this issue, many ports hack the CONFIGURE_TARGET variable
so that it contains the ``--build='' prefix.
To solve this issue, under the fact that some ports still have
configure script generated by the old autoconf, we use runtime detection
in the do-configure target so that the proper argument can be used.
Changes to Mk/*:
- Add runtime detection magic in bsd.port.mk
- Remove CONFIGURE_TARGET hack in various bsd.*.mk
- USE_GNOME=gnometarget is now an no-op
Changes to individual ports, other than removing the CONFIGURE_TARGET hack:

* Font caching Issues: Various font caching issues are fixed in Reader
8.1.2, including the issue of fonts that were configured using
fontconfig not being picked up by the Reader to render documents
(reported by Novell).
* Problem with Dual-screen setup (Xinerama mode).: Issue number 4

[Printing Related Issues]
* Incorrect orientation: Issues with printing PDF files containing
portrait and landscape pages have been fixed in Reader
8.1.2. Choosing "Auto Rotate and Center" will now print the pages in
their inherent orientation.
* Red wash on printing with HP CLJ 2605: A workaround for this has
been added in the preferences
($HOME/.adobe/Acrobat/8.0/Preferences/reader_prefs), namely
"brokenCRDs". This value is set to "false" by default and can be
modified to "true" if one faces the red background issue.
* Scaling issues: Problems with -shrink/-expand options in the command
line (Issue #1 listed on the Known Issues page for Reader 8.1.1) as
well as with "Custom" printing in the dialog have been fixed in
Reader 8.1.2.
* Reader does not remember last chosen printer across sessions: Last
chosen printer is now remembered between different sessions of the
Reader in 8.1.2 release.
* Cannot pipe PDF as input to acroread: PDF contents can be read from
stdin when using the -toPostScript option.
* Hardcoding of printer command: Earlier the printer command was
hardcoded in the reader binary. This has been fixed in Reader 8.1.2
to pick up the command from the PATH environment variable.

- USE_LINUX now implies NO_FILTER_SHLIBS=yes. It also doesn't use FreeBSD
tools to strip binaries anymore, so it's not neccesary anymore to override
STRIP and STRIP_CMD.
- USE_LINUX_PREFIX implies NO_MTREE now.
- In the USE_LINUX case, USE_XLIB now depends upon the linux X11 libraries
instead upon the native FreeBSD libraries.
- The variable LINUX_BASE_PORT contains a string which is suitable as an
item in *_DEPENDS, so if a port BATCH_DEPENDS or FETCH_DEPENDS upon the
default (or overriden) linux base, ${LINUX_BASE_PORT} should be used
instead of a hardcoded reference.
- Change all ports to comply to the "new world order".
- The Ports Collection now allows to override the default linux_base port.
Specify e.g. OVERRIDE_LINUX_BASE_PORT=rh-9 in /etc/make.conf to use
${PORTSDIR}/emulators/linux_base-rh-9 (the logic is to use
${PORTSDIR}/emulators/linux_base-${OVERRIDE_LINUX_BASE_PORT}).
- If USE_LINUX or OVERRIDE_LINUX_BASE doesn't point to an existing linux_base
port and if USE_LINUX isn't set to "yes" (case insensitive), the port will
be marked as IGNORE. [1]
- Readd USE_LINUX knobs into several ports and make several uses of a
conditional dependency ("USE_LINUX?=") into an unconditional one
("USE_LINUX=") which where removed/changed by Trevor to allow the use of
alternative linux_base ports. While this is a nice goal, the implementation
resulted in missing dependencies. The OVERRIDE_LINUX_BASE_PORT knob
in this commit is supposed to fix the problem while keeping the feature.
Basicaly this includes a backout of Trevor's commit, to prevent confusion
I mention it here explicitely.
- Use the correct prefix (X11- instead of LOCAL- or LINUX-) for some ports.
Chase dependencies for this.
- Changes to make linux_devtools installable on amd64, remove some stray
device nodes (they don't work on recent OS versions and aren't really
needed).
- Make linux_base-8 PREFIX clean and remove some stray device nodes.
Additionally tell a little bit more about how to setup NIS/YP [2].
- Update the PGSQL dependency in the linux-opengroupware port to a recent
version (the old one isn't available anymore), I don't know if this
works (at least it isn't more broken than before).
- Use PREFIX/usr/share/doc instead of PREFIX/usr/doc in the divx4linux
ports, the former path exists already and gets populated by other
packages too (PREFIX=LINUXPREFIX!).
- Fix some obvious (non-linuxolator) bugs in some linux ports while being
there.
- Bump PORTREVISION where neccesary.

little bit and allows to proceed to a more recent linux_base from
a stable (read as: the major bugs should be ironed out or identified
and most linux ports build just fine) source.
It also allows to ship 4.11 with a working linuxolator (the EOLed
linux_base is marked forbidden because of a security hole).
This is a major update, please read UPDATING (and CHANGES if you
develop linux ports).
Changes:
- change the default linux_base from v7 to v8
- add a newer freetype to linux_base-8 for nicer fonts display [1]
- don't let cpio use hardlinks in the linux_base-8 port to quiet some
warnings in some cases [2]
- fix a cut&past error in the linux_base-8 pkg-install script [3]
- convert the binary knob "USE_LINUX" to a version specifier, e.g.
USE_LINUX=<value> specifies a dependency upon
emulators/linux_base-<value>, exceptions are a value of "7" (which
does what you want and adds a dependency to linux_base) and any
value without a corresponding port in
PORTSDIR/emulators/linux_base-<value> (which adds a dependency to
the default linux_base)
- don't implicitly add USE_LINUX with the USE_LINUX_PREFIX knob,
this allows us to use the USE_LINUX_PREFIX knob for linux_base and
paves the way for splitting up future linux base ports into
individual pieces
- remove RESTRICTED from some GPL licensed ports, even when we only
distribute binaries, we get them from official linux sites, so
anyone can grab them there if he needs to
- add a dependency upon the linux X11 bits where necessary (based upon
guesswork)
- don't use USE_X_PREFIX in some linux ports since it adds a dependency
to the FreeBSD X11 libs, as a workaround use PREFIX?= (the clean
solution would be to remove the implicit USE_XLIB from USE_X_PREFIX)
- bump the portrevision of the linux ports ("better safe than sorry"
algorithm)
- pass maintainership of the important linux infrastructure to a
mailinglist, hijack freebsd-emulation@ for this purpose (if somebody
doesn't like this: tell us your bikeshed color at freebsd-emulation@,
my color would be "linuxolator@" in case someone cares...)
- add a pkg-install script for linux-fontconfig, but don't use it;
everything should work without it (the FreeBSD fc-cache program should
do all the work), but in case we need it we just need to decomment the
pkg-install part in the Makefile
- fix some dependencies
- fix some bugs
- add some static plists
- unbreak the ports with dependecies to more than one linux_base
This also fixes some ports which are marked BROKEN because of dependencies
to v7 and v8 of linux_base at the same time.
Known bugs:
- the linux-mesa and linux-devtools ports install libGL*.so symlinks
- some "minor" plist bugs (e.g. ld.so.{conf,cache} are modified by
the linux X11 port, so linx_Base-8 moans at deinstall time)
Future work (interested souls should coordinate with freebsd-emulation@):
- add some kind of USE_LINUX_X11 knob to streamline the X11 dependencies,
or modify the behavior of USE_XLIB in the USE_LINUX case
AFAIK trevor has some patches.
- make USE_XLIB and USE_X_PREFIX orthogonal to be able to get rid of
the PREFIX?= workaround in some linux ports
Should be discussed/coordinated on/with x11@.
- move the RPM bits from x11-toolkits/linux-gtk/Makefile to PORTSDIR/Mk/
- update to a more recent linux base

into separate ports. The OPTIONS will remain as of yet and trigger dependencies
now, for easy transition.
Update KOffice to version 1.3.2.
Add patches to fix a number of issues, including:
- fix kxkb on Xorg
- fix kdemultimedia WITH_MPEGLIB (now mpeglib_artsplug) compilation on gcc 3.4.2
with optimizations greater than -O
Add security related patches and entries to portaudit.txt.
the libtoolX ports instead of the one included with each port. Ports that
set USE_LIBTOOL_VER=X will now use the ports version of libtool instead of
the included version. To restore previous behavior, use the new macro,
USE_INC_LIBTOOL_VER. Both macros accept the same argument: a libtool version.
For example, to use the ports version of libtool-1.5, add the following to
your Makefile:
USE_LIBTOOL_VER= 15
To use the included version of libtool with extra hacks provided by
libtool-1.5, add the following to your Makefile:
USE_INC_LIBTOOL_VER= 15
With this change, ports that had to add additional libtool hacks to prevent
.la files from being installed or to fix certain threading issues can now
delete those hacks (after appropriate testing, of course).

Begin autotools sanitization sequence by requiring ports to explicitly
specify which version of {libtool,autoconf,automake} they need, erasing
the concept of a "system default".
For ports-in-waiting:
USE_LIBTOOL=YES -> USE_LIBTOOL_VER=13
USE_AUTOCONF=YES -> USE_AUTOCONF_VER=213
USE_AUTOMAKE=YES -> USE_AUTOMAKE_VER=14
Ports attempting to use the old style system after June 1st 2004 will be
sorely disappointed.
Important changes:
==================
KDE:
- Audio/arts does not install artswrapper anymore, instead it is provided by
audio/artswrapper. See UPDATING.
- misc/kdeaddons3 is now a metaport with
editors/kate-plugins
editors/vimpart
games/atlantikdesigner
misc/kaddressbook-plugins
misc/kfile-plugins
misc/kicker-applets
misc/knewsticker-scripts
misc/konq-plugins
misc/ksig
misc/renamedlgplugins
multimedia/noatun-plugins
net/kontact-plugins
as slave ports.
- A number of KDE ports now uses OPTIONS do make various WITH_* options more
visible.
- Plist fixes
- devel/kdevelop should be able to detect FreeBSD's autoconf/automake now for
newly created projects.
- kdebase will no longer remove previous KDM configurations. This won't take
effect during the update from 3.2.0 to 3.2.1 (as deinstalling 3.2.0 will still
remove the configuration), but subsequent updates will merge old configs.
QT:
- Previous versions of QT could be compiled with debugging-support enabled by
defining DEBUG. This switch has been renamed to the more unambiguous
WANT_QT_DEBUG (similar to WANT_KDE_DEBUG in the KDE ports).
Important changes:
==================
- Kmail and knode have been moved from kdenetwork to kdepim. This
means you will have to install kdepim if you want to continue using
kmail or knode. This is to ease integration with korganizer, in
the new 'Kontact' application.
- The arabic translations for KDE and KOffice have been moved from
misc to the arabic category.
- There is a new module called kdeaccessibility in the accessibility
category. It contains a few utilities for disabled users like a
magnification lens and a text-to-speech frontend.
- In KDM, you need to select the 'CUSTOM' session profile in order
to have your .xsession executed. This is particularly important if
you're using the aegypten tools
(http://freebsd.kde.org/howtos/aegypten-kmail.php).
- We have started making more parts of the ports optional. In kdepim,
both Kandy and KPilot can be turned off with ports-knobs. This
process will continue in the 3.2 series.
