<title>Qt 4.7 and KDE 4.6 going stable, finally!</title> |
| 22 |
<body> |

<p> |
| 25 |
After a lot of bug-wrangling both by upstream and by our Qt and KDE teams, we |
| 26 |
now feel confident that Qt 4.7.2 and <uri |
| 27 |
link="http://www.kde.org/announcements/announce-4.6.2.php">KDE 4.6.2</uri> are |
| 28 |
ready for stabilization. If you are a stable tree user (amd64, ppc, x86), the |
| 29 |
upgrade from current Qt 4.6.3 and KDE 4.4.5 will arrive at your machine soon, |
| 30 |
with lots of new features. (The KDEPIM applications such as kmail, kontact, or |
| 31 |
akregator will stay at trusty version 4.4 since development there is still |
| 32 |
ongoing.) |
| 33 |
</p> |
| 34 |
|
| 35 |
<p> |
| 36 |
As a special bonus, the stable upgrade will also include newer versions of |
| 37 |
several popular applications that take advantage of KDE 4.6 features. These |
| 38 |
include <uri link="http://www.digikam.org/">Digikam 1.9.0</uri>, <uri |
| 39 |
link="http://www.koffice.org/">KOffice 2.3.3</uri>, and <uri |
| 40 |
link="http://kdevelop.org/">KDevelop 4.2.2</uri>. There is a new bluetooth |
| 41 |
framework called Bluedevil, we no longer need HAL, and, and, and... :) |
| 42 |
</p> |
| 43 |
|
| 44 |
<p> |
| 45 |
The upgrade should go very smoothly; if you encounter any problems, we have a |
| 46 |
specific <uri link="/proj/en/desktop/kde/kde44-46-upgrade.xml">Gentoo KDE 4.4 - |
| 47 |
4.6 upgrade guide</uri> to help you with that. In addition, there is always |
| 48 |
the <uri link="/proj/en/desktop/kde/kde4-guide.xml">Gentoo KDE guide</uri> with |
| 49 |
general tips and tricks. |
