<p>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.</p>
<p>The team kept busy during the last quarter of 2015. Quite
a few big updates were committed to the ports tree, and a few more
are being worked on in our experimental repository.</p>
<p>As in previous quarters, we would like to thank several
people who have contributed with machines, patches and general
help. Tobias Berner, &a.madpilot; (madpilot@), Adriaan de Groot, Ralf
Nolden, &a.swills; (swills@), and &a.jpaetzel; (jpaetzel@) have been
essential to our work.</p>
<p>The following big updates were landed in the ports tree
this quarter. In many cases, we have also contributed patches to
the upstream projects.</p>
<ul>
<li>CMake 3.4.0 and 3.4.1</li>
<li>Calligra 2.9.1, the latest release of the integrated
work applications suite. Calligra had last been updated in the
ports tree in the end of 2013!</li>
<li>PyQt4 4.11.4, QScintilla2 2.9.1 and SIP 4.17.</li>
<li>PyQt5 5.5.1. Thanks to the work spearheaded by Guido
Falsi and Tobias Berner in the previous quarter, the PyQt5 ports
have finally been committed to the ports tree. Not only was this
long-awaited on its own, but it also allows other ports to be
updated to their latest versions.</li>
<li>QtCreator 3.5.1 and 3.6.0.</li>
<li>A couple of Qt5 packaging bugs were fixed: it should now
be more straightforward to use the Qt5 ports to build software
outside the ports tree, and it is now possible to build ports that
require a C++11 compiler and Qt5 on &os; 9.x.</li>
</ul>
<p>Work on updating the Qt5 ports to their latest version, as
well as porting KDE Frameworks 5 and Plasma 5 to &os;, is well
underway in our experimental area51 repository. At the moment, it
contains Qt5 5.5.1, KDE Frameworks 5.17.0, Plasma 5.5.1 and KDE
Applications 15.12.0.</p>
<p>Users interested in testing those ports are encouraged to
follow the instructions in
<a href="https://FreeBSD.kde.org/area51.php">our website</a> and
report their results to our mailing list. Qt5 5.5.1 is in our
&quot;qt-5.5&quot; branch, and Plasma 5 and the rest is in
the &quot;plasma5&quot; branch (which also contains Qt 5.5.1).</p>
