This means deprecating NEED_KDE in favor of KDE_REQUIRED and KDE_MINIMAL, so + that packages are built not against the newest available KDE (when there's more than + 1 version) but instead to the oldest - respecting KDE_MINIMAL. + There was a long discussion about kdeprefix, its purpose, benefits and alternatives. + The final consensus was to follow reavertm's solution. + + - KDE3 state + tampakrap explained the eclasses are ready to move all packages under /usr/kde/3.5. + He's still testing ebuilds and could use the help of 2 people to test kde-misc apps. + wired and jmbsvicetto offered to help. tampakrap will prepare a list of packages and + we're going to search for people through the page and a mail to the dev ml. + To start the work on getting KDE4 marked stable, we agreed to get this work done by + the end of the month - we'll be masking 3.5.9 monos as soon as we get 3.5.10 marked + stable. + + - Moving Plasmoids to the tree + Plasmoids were moved to kde-misc category and will be added when they're tested + with +kdeprefix + + - Adding printing packages to the tree. + We've decided to hold this until KDE-4.3. + + - Upstream response to the packaging snapshots mail + No reply again.
