Description Graham Perrin freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2021-03-05 08:51:46 UTC
https://svnweb.freebsd.org/ports?view=revision&revision=567284 describes disintegration without describing the benefits of integration. 

Can you describe the benefits? (More than the word "integration".)

Thanks
Comment 1 Adriaan de Groot freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2021-03-05 11:14:58 UTC
KDE integration gets you
- spellchecking
- word completion
- crash reporting
- progress notifications
- KIO (virtual filesystem) support
- KDE wallet integrations
- sharing

While the flavor is called "-qtonly" (because it switches to using only the basic Qt features for the browser) it is more a "-hellosystemisosizeconstraints" flavor. That's not a good flavor name, though.

Thanks, I meant, can something explanatory be written into the description? 

For _anyone_ who reads https://www.freshports.org/www/falkon/#description to not have to guess the UX effects of choosing the non-default flavour.

    Update www/falkon metadata

    The pkg-descr talks about features that are not present
    and has some grammatical weirdness. Since there are now
    flavors, describe the differences between the flavors as
    well, and add CONFLICTS to prevent the flavors from
    being co-installed.
