Description Giorgos Tsiapaliwkas 2011-12-23 13:04:18 UTC

Hello,

if I am not mistaken the 9999 should have the latest code of the upstream projects.Correct?
If so,the KDE ebuilds doesn't follow this policy. The latest code of KDE lives in KDE/4.x,now it is the KDE/4.8.
But both branches should exist in the ebuilds since some code like the Plasma Components documentation lives only in the master branch and not in the KDE/4.x because a code like these will not disturb the release of the repository.

I can create those extra ebuilds, I just need to know if you are ok with this.

Reproducible: Always

9999 = master branch/trunk.
4.8.49.9999 = KDE/4.8

Choose the version that you prefer. As soon as KDE upstream decides to open master/trunk for KDE 4.9 development the 9999 version will be much more ahead ;).
