All the above answers were enough for your other complaints, so let me |
| 11 |
answer about the KDE issue. I'm a KDE HT and one of the maintainers of KDE |
| 12 |
overlay. I use KDE snapshots (currently KDE RC1) in my laptop and KDE live |
| 13 |
ebuilds on desktop, so I use the overlays' ebuilds for everyday use for a |
| 14 |
long time now. KDE itself had many issues, a significant amount of which |
| 15 |
have been resolved. No crashes, many missing features are imported and many |
| 16 |
many impressing innovations being introduced in every full recompile. |
| 17 |
Although there are still some missing KDE4 or QT4 applications like k3b, and |
| 18 |
some others have some features missing, depending on what a user needs. But |
| 19 |
the upstream KDE developers are doing a great job, they import features and |
| 20 |
solve bugs very quickly and i can recommend the overlays for everyday use. |
| 21 |
Concerning the Gentoo KDE Team, we are fully prepared for the upcoming KDE |
| 22 |
4.2 release, we have made major changes to kde4 eclasses, supporting many |
| 23 |
features that were announced by scarabeus, and we still solve bugs for 3.5 |
| 24 |
and 4.1 releases. *The latest 4.1.4 release hit the tree the same day it was |
| 25 |
released by upstream *and it was available in kde-testing overlay a week ago |
| 26 |
hardmasked! KDE itself is a popular area amongst Gentoo projects and this |
| 27 |
can be easily seen in our IRC channel and our bugzilla list. So, please stop |
| 28 |
complaining for non-existent problems and go help the community :) |
