KDE 4.8.2 in -Current
A lot of people asked for it and now you have it officially in -Current

Hey folks! We've merged KDE 4.8.2 and a bunch of new packages that it
depends upon into -current, thanks in large part to months of work and
testing by Eric Hameleers. Note that NetworkManager is included. If
you want to use this, make sure to move the new rc.M into place,
make /etc/rc.d/rc.networkmanager executable, and then add the KDE
"Network Manager" widget to your desktop. Have fun! :-)
NOTE: After upgrading, the following obsolete KDE packages should be removed:
kdeaccessibility, kdebase, kdebase-runtime, kdebase-workspace,
kdebindings, kdeedu, kdegraphics, kdeutils, koffice, konq-plugins,
kopete-cryptography, polkit-kde-1, polkit-qt-1, and all koffice-l10n-*.
a/sysvinit-scripts-1.2-noarch-44.txz: Rebuilt.
rc.S: Handle a top-level /run directory, if it exists.
rc.M: Handle rc.networkmanager.

Note that the ChangeLog says "After upgrading, the following obsolete KDE packages should be removed: ... , polkit-qt-1 , ...". But that statement is inaccurate. The package was moved from KDE/ to L/ so it is not really a removal. If for instance you use slackpkg then polkit-qt-1 will be upgraded. Do not run removepkg on it!

I have done slackpkg clean-system instead and selected those packages listed in the ChangeLog's note. Doesn't encounter any problem yet. Posting this on Slack's KDE 4.8.2 by the way.

Eric
It looks like the package name has changed, too? The ChangeLog says to remove "polkit-kde-1" not "polkit-qt-1".

Those are two separate packages. The polkit-kde-1 package was indeed removed, because its functionality has been replaced by two new packages, polkit-kde-agent-1 and polkit-kde-kcmodules.
And polkit-qt-1 was moved from the KDE/ to the L/ package series - not removed.

You're not entirely clear. Is it something like I described in a comment to
http://alien.slackbook.org/blog/kde-4-8-0-arrives/ (search for my post on "February 15, 2012 at 00:32") ?
