---------------------------------+------------------------------------------
 kstars -- one of the kdeedu4 components -- is particularly useful as a
 graphical "front-end" to control telescopes that are attached to automated
 mounts.  It does this through a protocol called "indi".  As far as I can
 tell, however, (and I could be wrong -- I haven't used kstars too much
 before) the version installed through macports seems to be lacking this
 functionality.

 The kstars manual describes a "Devices" menu that doesn't appear to be
 present in the macports version:

 http://docs.kde.org/development/en/kdeedu/kstars/indi.html#indi-kstars-
 setup

 I'm not too familiar with how portfiles are constructed, but was this
 feature disabled when the ./configure script was/is run for kstars?

 If it's possible to turn this feature back on (if it is disabled at all),
 can this be added as a port-variant or put into the main port?

 Thanks,
 -Jon
