Hi,

I was just thinking it would be good if you could update your pkgsrc from 
pkg_select, e.g. if you are using 2004Q4 and want to upgrade to 2005Q1 
perhaps or to the head branch you can.

I dunno if that is out of the scope of pkg_select or not.

If i attempt a qt/kde version i'll let you know how i get on but i have to get 
a job 1st.
