Hehe. The keramik port was a neat hack on top of a snapshot of KDE at a
specific point in time. The libraries from that snapshot would be in
conflict with the current KDE system. For this reason, keramik was
yanked from the ports collection.

The good news is that keramik will be making its triumphant and
translucent return when KDE 3.1 hits the shelves.

You also bring up a good point: that keramik shows up in the ports
search. This is because the database that the search engine uses was
last updated just 8 hours  before the keramik port was removed from the
tree ::)
