- Remove an entry from all plists that slipped under radar and made
packaging fail.
- Properly save the OPTIONS defined by the user in the l10n ports. [1]
Quoting bapt, master of all things ports:
That is because misc/kde4-l10n/files/bsd.l10n.mk is totally wrong it does
...
.include <bsd.port.pre.mk>
...
.include <bsd.port.options.mk>
...
.include <bsd.port.post.mk>
First the right order in that case should be:
...
.include <bsd.port.options.mk>
...
.include <bsd.port.pre.mk>
...
.include <bsd.port.post.mk>
Second in that case (kde) the pre.mk/post.mk can be removed just keeping
the options.mk and given that we now have the helpers options.mk can also
be removed.
The check for variables in OPTIONS_DEFINE is also useless (already done
by the framework) defining OPTIONS_DEFINE and OPTIONS_DEFAULT to some
empty values is also useless.
No PORTREVISION bump because the generated packages do not change regardless
of the changes/fixes in behavior here.

Proudly brought to you by the KDE on FreeBSD team. We're sorry to ship two
KDE updates in just a few days, but the work on 4.10.5 was very light
compared to 4.10.4 so it was ready much faster.
The release announcement can be found in [1].
[1] http://www.kde.org/announcements/announce-4.10.5.php
The biggest news for us on FreeBSD is that the Ruby bindings should work
with Ruby 1.9 now.
I will probably add a note to UPDATING later about this, but as avilla@
pointed out, the clang support we mentioned that was improved in 4.10.4
requires a rebuild of the ports that depend on kdelibs4. Most of them are
covered by this update, but those which are not part of the Software
Compilation need to be rebuilt manually to make sure the previous issues
(proper symbol visibility being the most annoying of them) are solved.
With commits from avilla@, makc@, rakuco@ and Schaich Alonso.
The upstream announcement can be found in [1].
[1] http://www.kde.org/announcements/announce-4.10.4.php
clang support should be more stable now, with clang being recognized by
kdelibs4 and being passed the correct flags to build other ports.
Additionally, all ports being committed have been verified to build with
-CURRENT's clang 3.3 on an amd64 tinderbox (special thanks go to swills@ for
providing it).
Work on the newly-released 4.10.5 will begin shortly.
- kdegames4 port has been split.
- kdeutils4-printer-applet and system-config-printer-kde have been
replaced by print/kde4-print-manager.
- Recover misc/kde4-l10n-mr from attic.
- New USE_KDE4 components: kactivities, libkdegames, nepomuk-core,
and nepomuk-widgets.
- Provide sharedmime component with magic: ports don't need to
run update-mime-database themselves now.
- Switch some ports to out-of-source build.
- Update port comments.
- Adjust dependence on Qt4 components.
- x11/kde4 installs modern kdepim4 now.
- Remove redundant aspell and hspell from kdelibs4, both
can be enabled in textproc/enchant if needed.
- Remove stale bits from bsd.kde4.mk
