that is a bit of hard work. Michael Pyne did the tedious task of tracking
down and fixing dependency problems, and you will find Raptor2 and Rasqal
particularly troublesome. His work will ease the challenge of building
up-to-date Kontact with dependencies on RH6. Once I return to office, I
can forward it to you.
Personally I am particularly interested in getting Kontact working with
Exchange, and have been chasing that for quite some time. The current
Akonadi plugin for Exchange resides in playground.
Which brings me to another issue, sooner or later you will collide with
the KDE packages already included in RHEL. AFAIK, EPEL packages are not
supposed to touch or break Red Hat supported packages. I guess that policy
makes updated KDE packages very difficult to provide. Personally I would
love to have the option of updating also the KDE packages currently
supported by Red Hat, what is your thoughts on that?
Rex's packages already replace the KDE packages provided by Red Hat, and
kdepim is already included.
