The current[1] status of KDE in sid is below. Hopefully the buildds will catch up soon then I can upload a new kdelibs. I am not sure if mips is ever going to be in good shape since it appears the buildd admin doesn't care to maintain it...
For example: libs/kdelibs_4:3.1.4-2: Building by rmurray-resume [optional:out-of-date] Previous state was Needs-Build until 2003 Oct 08 14:04:39 And no it has not been building for 12 days straight, it only takes mips 14hrs to build kdelibs. It failed due to a build depend and was not reset as Dep-Wait. Chris Cheney [1] - Mon, 20 Oct 2003 17:03:39 -0500 arts --- Done. Needs reorganization of libartsc0 so that apps won't pull in libarts1. kdelibs --- mips - needs retry (failed due to xrender) Needs a new upload to fix RC bugs. kdebase --- Needs Upload. Needs a new upload to fix RC bugs. --- kde-i18n --- Done. kdeaddons --- mips - has not attempted kdeadmin --- mips - needs kdelibs s390 - needs retry (failed due to libxft2-dev) kdeartwork --- arm - needs new kdebase mips - needs new kdebase I'm not sure how this built on the other arches due to the kdebase issue. kdebindings --- Needs to be packaged. kdeedu --- m68k - needs retry mips - needs kdelibs kdegames --- m68k - needs retry mips - needs kdelibs kdegraphics --- mips - needs kdelibs s390 - needs retry (failed due to libxft2-dev) kdemultimedia --- Needs Upload.
