We obviously test the ports on a wide variety of systems, but we can't catc=
h=20
everything.  For example, there were recent changes on -CURRENT that=20
completely broke in kdebase, and we've been asking for people affected to=20
test a patch that very likely fixes it.   As a further example, a recent=20
upgrade to libxine changed it's API so much that kdemultimedia stopped=20
building.  Of course, updating the ports again with cvsup would fix that on=
e,=20
since we fixed it rather quickly, and posting the build error to kde@, we=20
would have immediately recognised the problem as the one we just fixed, and=
=20
advised you accordingly.

I guess I don't see your posts to kde@freebsd.org (clearly listed as the=20
maintainer for all KDE ports) with your build/runtime problems, symptoms, a=
nd=20
logs that would help us diagnose the problem.  They must have slipped under=
=20
one of my filters.   Perhaps, since I can obviously see your posts here, yo=
u=20
could repost them and I can forward them to kde@ for you.
