KDE 4.11.0 Packages for Slackware-Current
Eric Hameleers has pushed his KDE 4.11.0 packages to public just few hours after the official announcement. He has made this packages last week and i already mirrored them while i was away for holiday (but thanks to a WiFI facility, i can remotely mirror the packages on my server). I haven't really test this packages on my computers as i just arrived home yesterday and i'm too tired to do more testing this packages. I will probably do the upgrade today.
So, what big changes on KDE 4.11.0 ? According to the release announcement
There are 4 new meta-packages due to splitting decision and they are: kdeadmin, kdetoys, kdesdk and kdenetwork.
As always, read the README before installing/upgrading to this release as this is intended for Slackware-Current/14.1 users only and NOT for older release (14.0 and previous releases).
