When do you think this update will be completed?
I'm working hard on it. Because by using convert_existing_kde3_app_to_tde were found some hidden and omissed mistakes, patches are larger => require more effort to verify. Completed it should be on a Sunday evening.
I'm helping Slavek review the patch set. Hopefully later today we both start full build sets to check for both compiling and usability issues. A full build set at my end takes about 9.5 hours.
