Seemes waiting KDE4.1 now?

2008/1/20, Rodrigo Coacci [EMAIL PROTECTED]:

 So have anyone got up and running with KDE4 on Arch? I know about kdemod
 testing, but they miss some dependencies (tapioca-qt, strigi...), so to do
 those by hand i'd prefer to do all myself :-P
 Also, any ideas on when we'll get KDE4 on extra or even testing?

Aparently waiting on pacman 3.1.1, in a few days, to sort
out some dependency issues. Keep an eye on this thread...

 IMO KDE 4 is all but ready for production, from what I've heard even the 
 KDE developpers suggest waiting untill at least KDE 4.1 for it to be 
 actually usable.

It's usable to varying degrees right now and a lot of folks
are just keen to try it out. I've got a Kubuntu laptop and
even just using their KDE4 packages on top of 3.5.8 KWin
(without the plasma desktop) is a worthwhile experience.
