Description
Please find attached a patch to update konversation to the KDE4-based version 1.2-alpha6. The "alpha" label is misleading, it works fine for daily use and is the current version in Debian:

Wouldn't it be better to wait for the developers to release the final version of 1.2 before updating the port? Presumably there is a reason 1.2-alpha6 is called alpha and not final.

OK your call. My goal in updating konversation was simply to allow people to have a kde4-only setup.
On a related note can the "~" (tilda) sign be used in version numbers like in Debian to ensure that version 1.2~alpha6 is lesser than 1.2?

I'm all for updating these KDE packages, even if they're alpha.
Jeremy, can you let me know if the patch is good? I can't test it yet because of the akonadi port being out of date.

Replying to jeremy.laine@…:

To my knowledge, that's not a convention we've ever used in MacPorts. Instead, once 1.2 is released, the port's epoch should be increased to accomplish the same.
