2009-04-01 0.8.1 released (this is not a joke!)
This is the second release of the Qt4-Version of KPorts, grab it from the Downloads-Page[1]!
It comes with new artwork, fixes many bugs, provides a new and better search and has some non-visible changes that will ease introduction of package-handling; see the Changelog[2] for more details.
By default KPorts will now pull in kdebase-runtime, because it wants kdesu and the oxygen-icon-theme. This doesn't mean that KDE is required, it just makes KPorts look better and automatically ask for root-cridentials upon starting. If you don't use KDE, be sure to "make config" and read the post-install-message.
