KDE provides an integrated X11 based environment, much like CDE.
This package does not contain anything by itself -- it is a
"meta-port" that depends on other KDE packages. This
particular meta-port is adjusted as necessary for release
engineering purposes.

KDE3 and QT3 expired on 2013-07-01, remove these ports.
Unfortunately, this also affects some ports using QT3 as a GUI toolkit.
Changes to infrastructure files:
- bsd.kde.mk : obsolete, remove
- bsd.qt.mk : note that a CONFLICTS_BUILD line can probably go after a while
- CHANGES : document the removals from bsd.port.mk
- KNOBS : remove KDE and QT (KDE4 and QT4 should be used instead)
- MOVED : add the removed ports

- Deprecate QT3, KDE3 and unmaintained ports depending on them. QT 3.3.8
was released in 2007 and KDE 3.5.10 in 2008 and both are no longer
maintained upstream nor in our tree.
- Set EXPIRATION_DATE to 2013-07-01
Discussed with: bapt, tabthorpe
Enable new FreeBSD customers to waste time instant-messaging their GF/BF
instead of playing Mahjongg.
(Pull kdenetwork onto CD1 instead of kdegames - should be okay since kde-
network's package is actually smaller).
