All of the packages for which we actually have specfiles, with the exception 
of mesa and freeglut, have been built and are available for x86 on 
bionicmutton. In principle, this means you can go and install KBE and FOSS 
packages, then start on building KDE against those (with useful support in 
Dude/Build, along with necessary patches).

kdesupport fails right now with something peculiar in taglib. Peculiar because 
it's a new type of _RTTI_ failure and I didn't think taglib .. oh, wait .. 
there *are* new changes there. And building taglib trunk with a FOSStaglib 
package installed is not a good idea either.

I would suggest pkgrm FOSStaglib FOSSlibtunepimp before starting on 
kdesupport, *or* remove taglib from the kdesupport build before proceeding.

One remaining issue is ncurses, whose libncursesw.so does not link to 
libtinfow, yielding annoying linker errors later (which have been worked 
around, but still ..).
