this involves is this: Cull GL from Qt by default, but still provide a
Qt+GL library that may or may not have threads. Then also provide a Qt
library that has threads but not GL. This allows us to make KDE2 depend
on a library that will *not* have threads, ever. Threads will be
revisited at a later date. Ports that require GL support need to be
updated to use the hacked library, libqtgl.so.4. The net result is that
we bloat our qt2 package by 1.5-2.5MB for compatability. Also, static
qt will not have GL support.
Introduce bsd.kde.mk, which will be tested on bento before becoming
fully activated.
Replace qt22-static with qt2-static, since it's just a proxy. Update
qt-designer to depend on qt23. Also make the old hack to package the
correct lib obsolete by using PLIST_SUB instead.
Miscellaneous changes: remove LIBQTFILE from CONFIGURE_ENV, it's not
used anymore. Solve namespace pollution problems with the devel/pth and
devel/libgnugetopt ports. Hopefully.

to the final release of KDE 2.0. Kevin Lo <kevlo@FreeBSD.org> will continue
as the new maintainer. He has commit privileges on the KDE tree, making him
an excellent candidate for this job. I'll be behind the scenes for awhile,
since there are some structural changes I'd like to make but I'd rather have
Kevin do the work. Please, people, direct your patches at Kevin and watch
his "freetime deprivation process" _really_ start. :-P
have not tried KDE 2.0 or haven't done so in awhile (i.e. since July or
before), you should try this. This version is extremely stable and offers
better functionality than before. This update also introduces the KDE2
modules kdegraphics and kdemultimedia to our ports tree. Additionally,
this marks the first time FreeBSD packages were announced as part of the
KDE2 beta release announcement! :-)
Most (if not all) of the remaining modules in KDE2 will be added for the
update WRT the final release.
A hack was added to fix building with SSL in kdelibs; this has been merged
in the main tree and will go away with 2.0 release update. Thanks to David
Faure <david@mandrakesoft.com> for his help regarding this.
Also, building the docs should now succeed because I've added a build
dependency on jade and linuxdoc (should be enough).
People can get my precompiled packages from the usual location on the KDE
FTP server (should spread to the mirrors Real Soon Now (tm)):
http://ftp.kde.org/pub/kde/unstable/distribution/2.0Beta5/tar/FreeBSD/
Have fun! Remember to reports bugs through http://bugs.kde.org/.
I can address some of its issues (should see it marked un-broken in about
3 hours, if they're trivial enough). It took too long to get this update
out the door... :-(
This is a rather stable version of KDE2. Release is hoped for sometime
next month, so I'm going to try to reroll snapshots this weekend.
Also decide policy by removing the interactive requirement in qt22's
configure script. I don't know why they bothered adding it there..
Bugged by: *many* bug-reports, requests, etc.
Konqueror can load HTML documents, KOffice works semi-well, and KDE2 in
general seems less buggy. Only kdeutils was left out of this mega-update.
However, it should return soon. :-)
The massive reduction in patches is mostly the result of using perl
regex replacement. This reduces the amount of time it will take in the
future to upgrade these ports, and load on the repository.
QT 2.2.0beta0 (aka qt-copy) is officially enabled for the express
purpose of allowing KDE2 to compile. It is available in the qt22 port.
Additionally, GIF support is re-enabled in both Qt2 ports, so that
people can now read GIF images. GIF support is enabled through an
internal GIF reader in Qt, and requires no patented libraries. Special
effort was made to ensure that people do not install both qt21 and qt22
ports at the same time.
I'd like to take a moment to thank the following people for their help:
Alex Zepeda <jazepeda@pacbell.net>, Stephan Kulow <coolo@kde.org>, Harri
Porten <porten@kde.org>, Waldo Bastian <waba@kde.org>, Marc G. Fournier
<scrappy@hub.org>, Arun Sharma <adsharma@sharmas.dhs.org>, Matthias
Hoelzer-Kluepfel <mhk@caldera.de>, and many others. Over 150 hours of hard
work, testing, etc. were put into this update. Another couple hundred of
hours were spent by CPUs trying to compile this behemoth. :->
Special thanks to: Physics Computer Network @ Purdue staff, especially
C. Stephen Gunn <csg@physics.purdue.edu>, for giving
me access to an extremely fast machine for doing
test builds (it performed 12 full builds of the
entire suite in the last 7 days).

Line up the rhs of variable assignments nicely. Remove a couple of extra
whitespaces while I'm here.
