Hi everyone, |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
we're about to stabilize KDEPIM-4.7 for the first time (last stable KDEPIM |
| 4 |
suite is 4.4.11.1). Below is a news item for that, which I'd like to get out |
| 5 |
in 48hours as long as there are no major problems. |
| 6 |
|
| 7 |
The news item can also be found (in possibly updated form) at |
| 8 |
http://dev.gentoo.org/~dilfridge/2011-12-06-kde473-kdepim.en.txt |

Please send your feedback and improvements! |

|
| 12 |
@KDE: please also help me doublecheck if the "Display-If-Installed: <kde- |
| 13 |
base/akonadi-4.5" is correct (basically I want to display the news item only |
| 14 |
if someone has kdepim-4.4 installed). |

We are pleased to announce the upcoming stabilization of KDE 4.7.3. |
| 27 |
In general the upgrade of KDE from 4.6.5 to 4.7.2 should be unproblematic. |
| 28 |
However, if you are using the KDEPIM application suite (i.e., akregator, |
| 29 |
blogilo, kmail, knode, kontact, korganizer, and others) where the stable |
| 30 |
version so far was 4.4.11.1, please be aware of the following: |
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
The stable upgrade from KDEPIM 4.4.11.1 to KDEPIM 4.7.2 is a MAJOR upgrade |
| 33 |
with potential for major breakage. Therefore we will *try* to keep |
| 34 |
and support the old, so-far stable KDEPIM 4.4.11.1 as long as possible. |
| 35 |
If you *dont* want to upgrade your KDEPIM yet but keep the old version, |
| 36 |
please download the following file and add it into your |
| 37 |
/etc/portage/package.mask: |
| 38 |
http://dev.gentoo.org/~dilfridge/kdepim-4.7-mask |
| 39 |
If you decide to upgrade, please have a look at the upgrade guide first: |
