I think when 4.0 was being prepared, the KDE devs had no migration plans. Being a major release, this was seen as a transition that would break things.

They developed a tool, iirc, kaboom, which did a fairly good job. - -- Given the large number of mailing lists I follow, I request you to CC me in replies for quicker response -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iQIcBAEBCgAGBQJNpoF4AAoJEKY6WKPy4XVpvj8QAJtmnK3WUkDIKaORk9JHyVJJ t4xzii3uhR7sn9lbaZDY/dpSCz5RnsUWy6UOAv6Pz2xWYQ9Zo8X0/YzYu6Tum5mb zxQFz0PnYKBJrtCV4cxqW04KwTvFHfPVgqYXIP/mxalK0NtszvAGeJuIVvAsHA8g 7G9E3SwbYQGBzRrcSCR7OFWbSkX1kob9T+Zor8hH8l36LDZzqIrQMHQswOXSBZD6 mm6RZYr2yFvPfMCC5zCx9UIT/6Mu7+UT7mkPGi6PSBDT4I9wtxzTmP9bdUi0lMF0 bM/tajq8PxQUAcDvh7W2xJmdlN1Af+IwUXiLO4qCaFp6SsVv1d5w6r8xVNTCjVDy qytmNXYuFSdBac97EYwXDsGzOHLiTBsxIYvnJ7EheqJVpjEWwM4kgabulwgMJREB INsYmKsLW94BAZe0Hth0v25oKyp9nnAddMl5q0vrUA3T6tWJG94IDYq/lbWAyIgp +xSBd+6BSqz0oimbCn5TfVOt/LlL5VP4s1u39mFzZvK0M4OikGYvKXf1lnVMP+tJ QSb/eqyhaEC4oW5UOUjJ6tygkfGNGGXGhUbI3HQ2y5i76Y8VwZn+orUtZFsJ89bu eiCiP3cfufCb4/2HHGmDVsB+MxOs6UNlVqV+QSlY5c5w+X50U42D6/151MG1/zLa ZbgzAVQWtA8wV5VJBPOL =yIYJ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-kde-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
