of KDE 3.5.9 for FreeBSD. The official KDE 3.5.9 release
notes can be found at:
http://www.kde.org/announcements/announce-3.5.9.php
After the KDE 4.1.0 import the team found time to make
KDE 3.5.9 ready for the Ports tree.
KDE 3.5.9 was released six months ago and 3.5.10 is coming
soon. We are not sure we have time to get 3.5.10 for FreeBSD
7.1/6.4 release, but we would have minimum 3.5.9 for those
people who prefer to stay with KDE3.
Of course Thanks to all Testers.
original versions of these ports, so some PORTREVISIONs were bumped. See
http://freebsd.kde.org/ and mailing lists linked to from there for info
on the packages generated to test these ports.
bsd.kde.mk has already been updated a few days ago to work with these.
Some patches applied to fix a few bugs were:
deskutils/kdepim3:
[1] Remove kpilot from build because it wasn't ready at release.
editors/koffice-kde3:
[2] Fix compile time bugs for FreeBSD.
misc/kdeedu3:
[3] Fix compile problem with kvoctrain.
x11/kdebase3:
[4] Fix KDM CPU usage and login bug.
Some caveats:
* All PLISTs are broken for deinstall due to script bug that I
didn't notice until very recently. This will be fixed when I
commit an update tomorrow. These ports should still install
perfectly fine though. They should also deinstall without
giving errors, but will leave directories behind.
* You can't install this with any other version of QT or KDE
already installed. I am not sure the checks are 100% working,
but fixes for these will be forthcoming. This is mainly due
to a policy decision made by kde@ to make QT/KDE ports install
the way the rest of the world expects it to while also still
conforming to FreeBSD's hier(7). For reference on this decision,
please consult the KDE/FreeBSD mailing list archives. This
decision fixes 2-year-old bug reports relating to how we handled
this for KDE2 vs KDE1.
