We (FH Regensburg) still use KDE1, and I'd really not like to see the pkgs
go away. There's so much other abandoned software out there that we don't
want to ditch either. Plus one of my coworkers recently even downgraded
from KDE3 to KDE1 (on Linux, but doesn't matter), because of less bloat
and more speed.

Please keep the pkg. If there's a maintaining issue, I can try to handle
it (as I've done in the past - look at many of the patches, esp. for
Solaris).
