Hello, 

I know it has been a while already, but I looked for a solution to have 
kdepimlibs4 being still distributed as a binary, while also being able to have 
kioslaves provided. I have now a subport which isolates these components, and 
can be declared as a dependency, which is ready to commit. To my understanding, 
there is at least kdepim4-runtime and kdepim4 ports which should declare a 
dependency to it, but is anyone aware of any other ports which would need it?

Cheers, 

Nicolas
