KDE5 Packages for 11.4 missing in latest, quarterly

I just updated to 11.4 and discovered that the x11/kde5 packages are not available on the latest and quarterly servers. The KDE5 installation instructions 'pkg install x11/kde5' fail and has caused some problems. Is there any way to find out why the packages are not available (compilation failure?) By the way, my most heartfelt thanks to the PORTS and PACKAGE support people!
 
Yep the plasma5- stack was skipped because qt5-network was not build.

and qt5-network was ignored because:

Note the reason, it's broken because FreeBSD 11.x has OpenSSL 1.0.2 and various components of QT5 (and therefor KDE) require at least OpenSSL 1.1.1. You can get around this if you build it from ports.

But I would recommend upgrading to 12.2 instead. FreeBSD 11.x will be end-of-life some time next year any way (probably just after the release of 13.0-RELEASE).
