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:

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 I can't test it yet because of the akonadi port being out of date.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.
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.
