Because Qt3 is old and KDE3 will completely disappear. It the same goal for GNOME 2 (not for now because GNOME 3 is not yet available) but GNOME 2 will ne probably replaced by MATE. I think you should look at trinity. It is a fork of KDE3 and is in development to be ported to Qt4 :) http://mate-desktop.org/ http://www.trinitydesktop.org/ 2013/1/7 Mikhail T. <mi+thun@aldan.algebra.com> > On 07.01.2013 03:33, freebsd-ports-request@freebsd.**org<freebsd-ports-request@freebsd.org>wrote: > >> portname: accessibility/kdeaccessibility >> description: Accessibility applications for KDE >> maintainer:ports@FreeBSD.org >> deprecated because: Depends on QT3; unmaintained >> expiration date: 2013-07-01 >> build errors: none. >> overview:http://portsmon.**FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?** >> category=accessibility&**portname=kdeaccessibility<http://portsmon.FreeBSD.org/portoverview.py?category=accessibility&portname=kdeaccessibility>; >> > Once again a working port (no build errors) is scheduled for deletion on > the grounds of simply being "unmaintained". > > Please, reconsider deleting this and other KDE-3 ports. > > -mi > > ______________________________**_________________ > freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/**mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports<http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports>; > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-ports-unsubscribe@**freebsd.org<freebsd-ports-unsubscribe@freebsd.org> > " > -- Demelier David
