[MacPorts] #43070: kde port installs broken kde3 packages
#43070: kde port installs broken kde3 packages ------------------------+-------------------------------- Reporter: urilabob@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.2.1 Keywords: | Port: ------------------------+-------------------------------- As acknowledged in ticket #41136 and various other tickets, kdelibs3 and related packages are broken under recent macintosh systems. Yet they are still installed by 'port install kde'. Surely this should install the most up-to-date kde system. Or if that's too hard, then installing kde should at least warn that it is likely to be broken, and point to the appropriate way to install an up-to-date kde system (for example, point to a kde4 package). -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/43070> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X

It makes indeed quite some sense to avoid directing people to kde3. Committed in r118253.
Personally I would have preferred separate "kde3" and "kde4" metaports, but I suppose just repurposing the existing "kde" metaport is probably easier (and less confusing) than making it obsolete and then having to decide which one to mark it as `replaced_by`... -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/43070#comment:4> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
