Hi all, |

The kde2.2 packages are available on cvs/rsync and have been for some time. |
4 |
Recently I cleaned up and unified them, and added object prelinking support |
5 |
(via objprelink USE flag). AFAIK kde2.2 is now stable and gentoo-ready; now |
6 |
we need both developers and users to test it, to uncover any |
7 |
bugs/typos/whatever and be able to unmask it with a clear conscience. Please |
8 |
reply, not only with bugs, but with success stories as well. (BTW I now use |
9 |
it myself with no trouble.) |

11 |
Upgrade note: the gentoo /opt/kde${PV} system has one flaw, namely that it |
12 |
doesn't take the user-specific settings dir ~/.kde into account, and all kdes |
13 |
installed get to access the same dir. Therefore people upgrading from kde |
14 |
2.1.x or 2.0.x shuold make a backup of their ~/.lde, and restore it before |
15 |
using their old version of kde again. |
16 |
|
17 |
BTW, tell us if there's any need for full support for multiple kde versions, |
18 |
or is upgrade-only support (as now) enough. Final note: a known TODO is |
19 |
adding support for multiple KDEDIRS in the path for libs/bins. |
