Description
This is a port of the Calligra Suite project, the recently release version 2.9.0 .
It is the successor to KOffice (KDE Office) and provides an alternative to the monolithic "bureautics" suites like OpenOffice and LibreOffice. I personally find it comparable, interface-wise, to Apple iWork 09 . It also provides a PhotoShop alternative (Krita), an Adobe Illustrator/Inkscape alternative (Karbon), a database application loosely inspired by Filemaker (Kexi) and a few other goodies like Braindump. The applications install into /Applications/MacPorts/KDE4/Calligra-Suite .
I have provided several variants to control the components that get installed. +office will install the OS X product set provided by the Calligra team, which basically provides the usual wordprocessing, spreadsheet, presentation etc. components. +all
builds the full suite, while the main port only installs the creative components (Krita, Karbon), the database app (Kexi) and Braindump. Those are the components I think have the least open source alternatives that run natively on OS X.
The default variant (main port) was chosen for 2 reasons: 1) install footprint and 2) an issue that currently exists affects Karbon and CalligraFlow which each launch like the other (i.e. launching Karbon gives CalligraFlow and vice versa).
Caveat emptor: this port depends on a considerable number of ports of which I'm not sure they're already committed or even submitted here. Don't hesitate to inform me which ones do not have a trac ticket yet.
