Something like this was never reported yet? I had it on the last 
releases as well. It is very annoying, because I don't want to delete, 
kopete's or dolphin's settings…

When I have time I will rebuild those packages. Maybe something moved 
between packages and got removed during upgrade.

Well, I can't rebuild ports requiring phonon, because they want qt4-
phonon and I have (kde-)phonon. This situation is really akward, is 
there any chance of having one phonon-port in the future? Maybe make a 
configure-option on qt4-phonon, that enables kde-support?
 
Somehow playing videos with Dragon now works. It still doesn't work 
inside webkit, though.

Thanks for your help,
