Hi Which vulnerability do you mean?
area5's plasma5 branch contains ports for plasma5 (kde5) and all the applications (kile 2.9.60, kate-17.04.0, kdevelop-5.1.0,...) you care about. swills@ also has a pkg repo -- unfortunately the svn-repository has been unreachable for the last week. mfg Tobias On 19 May 2017 at 17:17, Hannes Hauswedell <h...@fsfe.org> wrote: > Hi everyone, > > my main question is whether KDE on FreeBSD is affected by the infamous KDE > root vulnerability. > > I don't want to complain or anything, and I know it's all volunteer work (I > did lot's testing back in the KDE4 porting efforts), but the current state of > KDE on FreeBSD seems to be rather desolate to me right now.
