With apologies to Al I wouldn't know where to start with a summary of the
changes between 2.1 and 2.2.1 - there are just too many. A couple of
hopefully static URLS that contain useful information are

Support for a.out for kde{libs,base} added by me. The libtool/a.out
combination doesn't like the linking of modules into binaries. A better
way of doing this will appear in future versions of KDE/pkgsrc.
This release provides the following fixes:
Security fixes:
KDEsu. The KDEsu which shipped with earlier releases of
KDE 2 writes a (very) temporary but world-readable file
with authentication information. A local user can
potentially abuse this behavior to gain access to the X
server and, if KDEsu is used to perform tasks that require
root-access, can result in comprimise of the root account.
Bug fixes:
kio_http. Fixed problems with "protocol for http://x.y.z
died unexpectedly" and with proxy authentication with
Konqueror.
kparts. Fixed crash in KOffice 1.1 when splitting views.
khtml. Fixed memory leak in Konqueror. Fixed minor
HTML rendering problems.
kcookiejar. Fixed minor problems with HTTP cookies.
kconfig. Fixed problem with leading/trailing spaces in
configuration values.
kdebug. Fixed memory leak in debug output.
klineedit. Fixed problem with klineedit emitting "return
pressed" twice.
(The security fix was already dealt with by patches.)
conversion generally consisted of making sure that -L options passed to
the compiler in the configure script didn't refer to any directories
outside of ${BUILDLINK_DIR} and ${X11BASE}, and replacing dependencies
with buildlink.mk file inclusions.
- Add a buildlink.mk for use by other package Makefiles.
