Dependency Freeze Exception Request for KGet

[Jeremy Whiting]

Erm, we are in the process of migrating kget (and the rest of kdenetwork)
from svn to git, when did you plan on making this change?  I would suggest
doing the change after KGet is safely in git, which should be early next
week in order to give us time to verify everything has moved and tarballs
can be built right, etc.

BR,
Jeremy
