[kde-freebsd] phonon, xine, what to do...

Hello,

I've been a happy user of phonon-xine and libxine for quite some time,
but with the update of libxine to 1.2.1, phonon-xine refuses to
compile :
        ===>>> This port is marked BROKEN
        ===>>> deprecated upstream; refuses to build with libxine 1.2.x

So, what is recommended for now, and what will be recommended for KDE
4.8 (if different) ? Every time I try phonon-vlc it crashes (sorry for
the lack of details, if you want more I'll need to test again) and I'd
like to avoid gstreamer and its plugins, if possible.
What about WITH_QT_PHONON, is it still deprecated for KDE4 users ?

Besides that, speaking of area51, do you think KDE and Qt 4.8 are
ready for testing ? (by testing I mean that I expect problems and will
be happy to report them but don't want to crash my entire system :) )

Thanks !
