ghostscript openldap runtime-ce xerces-c I would say we move those out into a different category (or try to get source packages from those). I started source packages for openldap and xerces-c but I am currently not sure what the state of it is (Andre might know about openldap). ghostscript might be worth a new attempt at trying a source package, even if split per compiler like openssl. runtime-ce could go into a separate category anyway. > Regards > Ralf regards, Patrick _______________________________________________ Kde-windows mailing list [email protected] https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-windows
