[CFT] Qt-4.6.0 technology preview ready for beta test

Filed under: FreeBSD, KDE — Tags: , , — tabthorpe @ 5:31 pm

The FreeBSD KDE team is pleased to announce the first public call to test Qt-4.6.0-tp1. It can downloaded from the area51 repo with the following command

svn co http://area51.pcbsd.org/branches/qt-4.6tp/

From there you can use kdemerge to overlay the changes to your ports tree. Please note that you will require some patches from the repo to get games/kdegames4 and net/kdenetwork4 to build.

Our initial testing has yielded a binary compatibility between 4.6.0 and 4.5.2. Please be aware that this needs more testing.

One other warning, the py-qt* bindings are still a work in progress. Dima Panov, aka fluffy@, is currently working on it.

Please send feedback to kde-freebsd@kde.org.

This branch was made possible by the hard work of Alberto Villa and other contributors.
