Ah, right, that was it. I remembered setting out to look and try to build the beast, but forgot I stopped short when I noticed it was KDE3 software.

Someone will have to decide what to do with the KDE3 ports in MacPorts and before that, if and how to tackle the Qt3 port. Given the popularity KDE3 still has with certain followings I would hesitate to recommend removing it, but I suppose Qt3 would have to be made co-installable. The KDE3 ports should probably be aligned to the Trinity Desktop effort, if it is decided to keep them.

I'm not volunteering ;)
