k3b on 5.2

[Jay Moore]

Has anyone here tried k3b? If so, what are your impressions?

Port vs package?

My question is a little "after the fact", but I decided last night to try it. 
I decided to install from the ports tree (make install), and this thing has 
been going on like forever. Some of the stuff I've seen scroll by makes me 
nervous - warnings that constants exceed size limits for long integers, other 
packages being overwritten, etc.

Am I building a hairball?

THanks,
Jay
