So having tgz and the patches is enough to have it ported to Trinity?
In that case the most of the applications we discussed recently can be ported. 
They build well for the upcoming OpenSUSE 11.4 and if you say Trinity is 
source-compatible with KDE 3.5.10, nearly all of them are also compatible 
with Trinity.


By the way, what do you do with packages which require external dependencies 
(i.e. those which are part of the distro itself and not included in Trinity)? 
Can such packages be included in Trinity?
