Hi there According to the internet, there is no "KDE5" [1] -- the thing is now called "Plasma Desktop". However, we found it is probably less confusing, if we still add a metaport similar to x11/kde4 for the new stuff.
* x11/kde5: "fat meta port" -- pulls in the dependencies for a plasma desktop [note, not whole plasma] and (optionally) applications * x11/plasma5-plasma: "plasma metaport" -- pulls in every plasma port. That being said, if you know what you want, you can also just install x11/plasma5-plasma-desktop and the applications you want :), and forgo all the meta-ports shenanigans. mfg Tobias [1] https://vizzzion.org/blog/2011/06/there-is-no-kde5/ On 28 January 2017 at 19:51, Jeremy <jeremy.m....@gmail.com> wrote: > Hello all, > I must say thank you for your continued efforts to port the newest version > of KDE to FreeBSD. > > I'm so excited because I got it working.
