The KDE on &os; team focuses on packaging and making sure that the + experience of KDE and Qt on &os; is as good as possible.

+ +

As mentioned last quarter, Alonso Schaich (alonso@) became a + committer and since then has made good progress helping his mentors + Raphael Kubo da Costa (rakuco@) and Max Brazhnikov (makc@) maintain all + Qt and KDE-related ports.

+ +

This quarter, Qt 5.3 was finally committed to the ports tree + after extensive work that included cleaning up and/or changing a lot of + the Qt5 ports infrastructure to make it both easier to maintain the Qt + ports as well as finally make it possible to build newer versions when + older ones are already installed on the system.

+ +

We have also updated KDE in our experimental area51 repository + and committed several updates to other ports such as KDevelop and KDE + Telepathy. Overall, we have worked on the following releases: +

CMake 3.1.0 (in area51, exp-run in progress for it to be committed to the ports tree)
Calligra 2.8.6 (in area51)
KDE 4.14.2 (committed to ports), 4.14.3 (in area51)
KDE Telepathy 0.8.0 (committed to ports)
KDevelop 4.7.0 (committed to ports)
Qt 5.3.2 (committed to ports)

+ +

Tobias Berner has contributed patches to update QtCreator to 3.3.0 as + well as KDE Frameworks 5 ports which are under review for inclusion + in our experimental area51 repository.

+ + + + +

Update Qt5 to 5.4.0.

+ + + +

Try to contribute to the work on getting rid of HAL on &os;, + which seems to be gaining more traction recently.

+ + +

Add KDE Frameworks 5 ports to our experimental repository.
