Yes. But every single one of the kde-i18n-* _packages_ will be
needlessly rebuilt by the ports cluster, the packages will needlessly
replace the earlier (identical) version on the packages sites and will,
eventually be needlessly redownloaded by thousands of people, who use
portsupgrade, or will themselves think, that the new PORTREVISION
avtually means something.

This is not true. Ade simply bumped up the shared library major number
from 2 to 4. He is not a KDE user/maintainer to know, that none of
the i18n ports need the lib-dependency in the first place. You are,
however...

And so is will, who introduced the bogus LIB-dependency in April 2002.

I know, that you guys are busy with the Really Important Stuff [TM], but
that does not mean you can deny the obvious just because you perceive it
as too unimportant.

None of the kde-i18n ports broke because of Ade's surprise commit.

Please, change the LIB_DEPENDS to BUILD_DEPENDS in those ports, or tell
me, why I should not do that. That would be quite productive and will
prevent this issue from coming up again. Thank you.
