Yea, I took a look at this last week, but it looked pretty buggy
from here. I thought about the kde/ category, but The thing is
really three distributions.
1 -- kde-support libraries, libjpeg, and libgif. we already have
libjpeg, I made a port of the original libgif that I can commit.
this one won't be necessary.
2 -- kde-libraries -- just a set of libraries for the clients.
3 -- All the clients bundled up as one package.
So I started on three ports, graphics/libgif, x11/kde-libs x11/kde-clients.
`pkg_add kde-clients' will sort it all out via the dependancies.
Unfortunately, I won't have time to work on it anymore for a couple
weeks, if anyone is interested in picking it up, let me know...
(I think graphics/libgif is ready for commit. kde-libs is packaged, but
may have bugs)
