I built RC2 a week ago and have found the following problems (specific to 
FreeBSD):

 - Nepomuk does not start and complains about no Virtuoso present (even when I 
recompile Soprano without it [redland defaults to it being off]).  Virtuoso in 
ports is outdates and i386 only (although I cannot determine why, it compiles 
under amd64).  I have initial work of a virtuoso 6 port.  

 - KDE incorrectly detects the size of my home partition.  It says ``6602.2 
GiB free of 1.5 TiB''.  I'm glad for the extra space as df says ``/dev/ad8s1f    
198G    100G     83G    55%    /home''.  

 - I am still getting periodic crashes on logout, I suspect this is related to 
Lancelot or CWP.

David
