I am running FreeBSD-STABLE (4.10) and have been using ports/pkg_add/portupgrade/cvsup to stay current with most programs. however there are two things that i'm having trouble with, and i'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction: 1) i received a small patch for Kate (K Advanced Text Editor) from one of the developers, how can i compile this new code into the binary? 2) this question may be answered by any information provided in answer to my first question, but how can i upgrade specific components of KDE (such as Kate) without upgrading the entire KDE installation (which takes a couple of days) and lastly, a quality of life question: 3) Is it safe to do a portupgrade of KDE whilst KDE is still running? thanks very much, Iain Dooley _________________________________________________________________ Add photos to your e-mail with MSN 8.
