I saw patches these last days. Ryan will correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe only software with tarball releases are added to the ports tree except for a few necessary exceptions (ffmpeg for instance. which never releases a tarball), so we'd probably wait for a release with actual support for OS X.

That's a lot of stuff, luckily most of it is already in macports. Given that most portfiles (which are maintained) are done by volunteers you'd need someone to step up and do this. I'd suggest emailing the kde-mac mailing list, or heading to the irc channel (#kde-mac) if no one here volunteers to adopt kdenlive. Alternatively you could provide the portfile and ask the kde-mac folks to test. I find that, for me, the greatest inertia in adding a new package is creating a portfile and once that done I'll keep at it till it compiles or I figure out why it isn't :-) > > Kind regards, > Jean-Michel > > -- Chevy Chase - "Parrots make great pets.
