4 Hi,
5
6 With things brewing in kde-overlay, we would like to propose the new
7 categories 'kde-apps' and 'kde-plasma'.
8
9 kde-apps will contain approximately 220 packages.
10 kde-plasma will contain approximately 30 packages.
11
12 KDE Applications, KDE Plasma and KDE Frameworks will be released
13 independently and each with different release cycles. It is for this
14 reason that we feel a new category for them is appropriate.
15
16 As there won't be any future KDE SC 4 releases anymore, kde-apps will
17 contain packages that already reside in kde-base. These will block
18 each other and we will provide kde-apps/*meta ebuilds for a smooth
19 transition.
20
21 Before we introduce kde-apps to the tree, the KDE team is going to
22 adjust in tree dependencies on
23 kde-base/foo
24 to
25 || ( kde-apps/foo:4 kde-base/foo )
26 which will enable us to push a properly working KDE Applications
27 release to the tree.
28
29 'kde-base' category is deprecated now and will likely go away with KDE
30 SC 4 and KDE Workspaces 4.

33 Best regards,
34
