Here I want to describe current state of KDE4 ports.

1. All KDE 4 SC ports are imported, together with their dependencies. The
only exception is Kalzium: it needs more dependency love, and until someone
will look into fixing misc/openbabel update (see the one in WIP tree),
Kalzium may miss next release. There are some more KDE-related ports, but
let KDE SC go in bulk builds first.

2. There were a lot of small glitches: forgotten old patches, missed
dependencies, etc. Most of them are already detected by nigel@, and I could
only say "Thanks!" again.

3. There is a concern whether current situation with kdelibs-3.x and
kdelibs-4.x is okay. I'm starting a semi-bulk build, dedicated to
stress-check those suspects; hoped to run it earlier, but had no
possibility to. :(

4. I also plan to do another big bump for KDE 3.x ports, after adding
proper PKGSPEC to conflicting ports from KDE3 and KDE4 lands.
Unfortunately, I did not had time to do that in 5.3 release cycle, so the
update path should be investigated throughly.

5. nigel@ observes sporadical hangs in automoc4 execution when running
under DPB. I neither seen or heard about those before, and this a real
stopper for now. I have a few ideas, though, hope to fix this issue in a
week.

If you want something KDE-related, then, please, speak - it will be easier
to plan the work now.
