If the maintainers fix the bugs, will the fixes get into the git branch so that I can get KDE, even if I have to compile it?
If the bugfixes don't make it into the stable quarterly you are using you can always do something like: mv /usr/pkgsrc/category/brokenpackage /usr/pkgsrc/category/brokenpackage.bak cp -r /usr/fixed-pkgsrc-tree/category/brokenpackage /usr/pkgsrc/category/brokenpackage for the various broken packages and use your 'hacked up' tree to build the related packages. This works most of the time unless there have been changes to the various dependencies of the broken packages, in which case you'll need to do the same for those, or tweak the 'fixed' packages to use different versions in the package makefiles.
