<p>The KDE/&os; Team have continued to improve the experience of
KDE software and Qt under &os;.</p>
<p>During this quarter, the team has kept most of the KDE and Qt
ports up-to-date, working on the following releases:</p>
<ul>
<li>KDE SC: 4.12.2, 4.12.3, and 4.12.4; Workspace: 4.11.6,
4.11.7, and 4.11.8</li>
<li>Qt: 5.2.1</li>
<li>KDevelop: 4.6.0</li>
<li>Digikam (and KIPI-plugins): 3.5.0</li>
</ul>
<p>As a result &mdash; according to PortScout &mdash;
<tt>kde@</tt> has 526 ports (up from 464), of which 98.86% are
up-to-date (up from 88.15%). iXsystems continues to provide a
machine for the team to build packages and to test updates.
They have been providing the KDE/&os; team with support for
quite a long time and we are very grateful for that.</p>
<p>A major change has been the depreciation of the KDE3 ports and
the move of the <tt>KDE4_PREFIX</tt> to <tt>LOCALBASE</tt>.
Also, work on Qt5 continues to maturity. &a.rakuco; has been
working with upstream to ensure Baloo (Nepomuk successor in KDE
SC 4.13) compiles and runs on non-Linux systems. His work not
only benefits &os; but other BSDs and OS X.</p>
<p>As usual, the team is always looking for more testers and
porters, so please contact us and visit our home page (see
links). It would be especially useful to have more helping
hands on tasks such as getting rid of the dependency on the
defunct HAL project and providing integration with KDE's
Bluedevil Bluetooth interface.</p>
