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.
