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.
The affected ports are the ones with gettext as a run-dependency
according to ports/INDEX-7 (5007 of them) and the ones with USE_GETTEXT
in Makefile (29 of them).

- Shared lib version and PORTREVISION bumb for all affected ports.
While I'm here:
- Remove USE_MESA knob where it was (35 ports).
It marked as depricated for 2 years.

Unless _NO_KDE_CONFTARGET_HACK is set, users of bsd.kde.mk
will automatically have
CONFIGURE_ARGS+=--build=${MACHINE_ARCH}-portbld-freebsd${OSREL} set.
This is necessary for almost every package using a configure script
created with non-historic versions of autoconf and really should be
handled in bsd.port.mk.
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.
in for -CURRENT (essentially, reinplace). This method was originally
believed not to work, but it was simply missing the ltmain.sh fix. This
should allow third-party apps to be fixed without needing to put the same
snippet everywhere. Not to mention getting rid of the patches.
patch involved patching the core auto* routines in KDE to accept the
PTHREAD_* variables in the environment, with fallbacks. We decided the
easiest way to implement this in ports was to generate configure instead
of risking incorrect generation at port configure time.
Said patch has already been committed to HEAD in KDE and as such will be
removed with the 3.2 upgrade once it is released.
Ports using Makefile.kde that shouldn't be using them (i.e. non-KDE
modules) have this support commented out due to lack of patch.
