yes, so a lot of the support can be built, but the kde portions which drive it still need to be tuned a bit, and I haven't touched that yet. I'm currently working with hal, which may turn to a 32-bit only package since I'm missing 64-bit ssl/crypto on S10 unless I pkg up a later version of openssl, or find a 64-bit ssl/crypto package that glues into /usr/sfw/lib. I have another 50 packages of stuff I had converted to the 4.1.4 spec model which I need to convert to 4.4.0, and then there's the rest of the dependencies, that I hadn't converted. Here is an overview of the process of changing from a Dude tarball to spec: http://techbase.kde.org/Projects/KDE_on_Solaris/FOSS_specfiles and an explanation of the current top level spec file used in FOSS http://techbase.kde.org/Projects/KDE_on_Solaris/FOSS_specfiles_example1 The base spec file is referenced a bit in the first page, and I'll get around to detailing it later. Finally, http://techbase.kde.org/Projects/KDE_on_Solaris/Status has a list of all the packages that have been converted to spec, with upgrades identified. Ben
