This means that you will hav= e=20 to take some precautions to update your KDE installation. A simple=20 portupgrade -a will not work. Portupgrade -R kde can fail as well, depending on what parts of KDE you have currently installed. We therefore recommend sticking to the following procedure. The procedure requires you to have sysutils/portupgrade installed and you to be the superuser (or using sudo). We recommend not being logged = in to a KDE session on the machine you're performing the upgrade on. If you choose to perform the update while being logged in to KDE, expect erratic behaviour and crashes from applications launched until you log out and back= =20 in. 1.) Delete installed packages which conflict with the updated KDE ports. pkg_deinstall -f kdeartwork-\[0-9\]\* kdebase-\[0-9\]\* \ kdebase-konqueror-nsplugins-\[0-9\]\* kdewebdev-\[0-9\]\* \ kde-\[0-9\]\* akregator\* phase\* 2.) Now update the remaining KDE ports. portupgrade arts\* kde\* or, if you want to update KDE along with other updated ports: portupgrade -a 3.) Reinstall the KDE ports you deleted in step 2. portinstall -O kdebase kdeartwork kdewebdev Changes in detail: - www/akregator is now included into deskutils/kdepim3. - x11-themes/phase is now included in x11-themes/kdeartwork3. - www/konqueror-nsplugins has been removed and is now integrated into x11/kdebase3. - Juk has been split out of multimedia/kdemultimedia3 and is now available as audio/juk. - Akode has been split out of multimedia/kdemultimedia3 and is now available as audio/akode and audio/akode-plugins-*. Akode is also a default dependency of multimedia/kdemultimedia3 now. - audio/mpeglib_artsplug has been demoted to legacy status and is no longer the default decoder backend for kdemultimedia3. It's also = not depended on by kdemultimedia3 by default anymore. Known post-updating issues: - If you're missing acoustic notifications (system sounds) after the upda= te: rm ~/.kde/share/config/knotifyrc Then log out of KDE and back in again (also see=20 http://freebsd.kde.org/faq.php#q16). - kdm users might get warnings from kdm about obsolete lines in kdmrc. You can migrate your configuration while preserving your customizations by running (as root or with sudo) genkdmconf Make sure to backup your old kdm configuration (usually found in /usr/local/share/config/kdm) beforehand in case the merge produces an invalid configuration. Especially note that kdm does not use the Xserve= rs file anymore. A genkdmconf run will merge its contents into kdmrc. Extensive information about changes and new features of KDE 3.4 can be found at http://developer.kde.org/development-versions/kde-3.4-features.html. Bugs can be reported at http://bugs.kde.org. Due to a fatal hardware failure at the KDE/FreeBSD package build cluster, w= e=20 won't be able to provide binary packages at this point. Sorry folks. Have fun with KDE!
