21 You'll have a long wait for that. The KDE devs are talking about 4.2 being
22 useable by regular users. 4.1.1 is ~amd64 and ~x86 in the overlay and nothing
23 has hit the official tree yet.

25 I have no idea when KDE4 will go stable, and I doubt anyone else does either -
26 it's a very volatile thing - but I think I'm quite safe in guessing that it
27 won't happen before 4.2 and not before early next year.
