I've put togethor some binary packages for KDE and various other things
from thet set of NetBSD packages. You'll need the NetBSD package handling
binaries, etc, and I can't remember when these first became part of
NetBSD.

They are available for ftp from mac57.lmh.ox.ac.uk. Note, however, that
this is my very own RiscBSD box which might get turned off/crash/lose net
connections from time to time... You'll also have to be quick since I'll
have to unplug it sometime next week (and possibly even this weekend),
whenever it is that my neighbour goes home (my net connection comes via a
cable between our two windows...).

Is there somewhere permanent these should go? I might be able to get some
permanent ftp space here, but it'd exceed my quota at the moment.

I haven't compiled absolutely everything in KDE yet, only the ones for
which NetBSD packages exist. I might compile a few more soon and make them
available.
