4 Hello everyone,
5
6 I've finally brought the kde cvs ebuilds up to speed. See
7 http://www.gentoo.org/~danarmak/kde-cvs.html for info and downloads.
8
9 The KDE CVS ebuilds are in-testing ebuilds for in-testing software. Only use
10 them if you're prepared to be a beta-tester for me and an alpha-tester for
11 kde. Unless you have some very good reasons for running kde cvs HEAD code,
12 there's no real reason for you to use them; stop reading here.
13
14 However, they happily live side-by-side with a stable kde installation, so
15 there's no risk of havig no working stable kde (but see the Issues with
16 multiple KDEs heading on my webpage linked above).
17
18 Featureset in brief:
19 - - ebuilds download current cvs HEAD sources and compile and install them in
20 the usual way. You can use your already checked out kde cvs moudles, too.
21 - - Choose a cvs mirror server. Switches servers in CVS/Root files
22 automatically.
23 - - cvsup support has been removed (i.e. from the kde3-pre era); kdevelop,
24 koffice and i18n cvs ebuilds are still missing (to be done tomorrow).
25 Prerelease (3.1_alpha1) ebuilds now live in generic portage (if you haven't
26 noticed yet).
27 - - All KDE versions live happily side by side.
28 - - Many other features planned, see website.

30 The webpage is pretty much exhaustive (except in its listing of known issues),
31 so I won't repeat the details here. If you're interested, go and read it.
32 Email me with any bugreports or suggestions. Enjoy!
33
34 Oh, and I highly recommend using ccache. It enables me to emerge kdelibs (with
35 gcc3) in 20 minutes instead of an hour and a half. It's great for nightly cvs
36 builds.
