Hi,

I have used KDE in fedora and done some development also. But somehow I am
failing
to install any KDE application on my OSX. I am new with OSX and want to do
some
development in the OSX version of KDE.

I have tried Macports but somehow I am unable to build or make any KDE
application.

I have also tried using the library https://github.com/haraldF/homebrew-kf5.
The main problem that I am facing is while trying to execute the KF5 archive
given in the github description/README.md (brew install
haraldf/kf5/kf5-karchive),
my terminal gets stuck. I have even tired installing using other packages
of KF5 but
no luck.

I tried a lot but I think I am not trying the right way to make this thing
work.
I would be really glad if anyone can show me the path.

Thanks and Regards,
Sayan
