[opensuse-kde] 12.2 planning
by Will Stephenson 26 Jan '12

26 Jan '12

Apologies for being so quiet over Xmas - I was gathering the energies for a busy 2012 to make openSUSE bigger than ever. It's high time we nailed down what we will do for KDE in 12.2. We can separate these into things we want to do, and things we have to do. None of these lists are complete IMO, please help to fill them out. ==Have To== These are external factors that we have little influence over, that we have to react to * openSUSE 12.2 Release Schedule 12.2 is scheduled for release on 11 July 2012 [1]. Beta 1 is our traditional freeze for major version bumps, usually about 6 weeks before release, so we have until June to change things. There is no detailed 12.2 roadmap from Coolo yet [2]. * Upstream KDE Release Schedule There is no 4.9 schedule yet (what is it with release managers and christmas?) but since KDE follows a 6-monthly cycle, add a year to the 4.7 schedule and we would have 4.9.0 on July 27 2012. So this is out for us. This means we'll probably have 4.8.4 in 12.2. ** Package version updates ** Default configuration adaptations required by 4.8 * Factors affecting KDE in the rest of the distro Traditionally we end up reacting to these late and 'best-effort', usually because these are changes to the platform authored by redhat, adopted by openSUSE and GNOME gets them for 'free' from upstream RH, or because some other part of SUSE decides it doesn't want to take care of a feature for us any more. I'd like us to be aware of these as early as possible this time, work out the implications and the work required to turn these changes into opportunities for us rather than damage limitation exercises. ** Plymouth as bootsplash ** Systemd changes in 12.2 I don't know what these are, but I suspect they may have some influence on KDM ** Kernel/Driver changes The forces of evolution here may require updates in the KWin driver blacklists we ship ** Updated branding We need to integrate any branding changes that come out of the artwork team and make sure they meet our needs. ==Want To=== These are things we would like to do as a value addition to the purely mechanistic changes pushed on us by upstream. I have a few things in mind, to kick the discussion off I'll mention a couple here: * Quality focus 4.8, and 4.8.4 should be highly stable from upstream (changes to the platform are happening in the KDE Frameworks 5 work, so it and any 4.9 are going to be very incremental). As a distribution we can build on this with polish and targeted bugfixing based on our users' feedback. Of course things like Apper + stack, Akonadi + stack, Nepomuk + stack are big items here, but also many things that are simpler to contribute to, such as missing icons, improving translations, clarifying bad strings in the UI, cleaning up the start menu tree, setting default package selections can be done. * Improving Activity usability There is still a way to go to make Activities a "Duh! Why didn't we always do things like that". Based on a bit of common sense and a bit of feedback, I think we should be able to make Activities a lot better with a manageable amount of work, and submit this upstream for 4.9. * Integrate Plasma Active in openSUSE A lot of PA stuff has only been usable using git branches, but these should be mostly integrated to make a current version of PA in openSUSE doable by know. Since open-slx is our downstream, most of the work is already done. As a final note, please keep the discussion constructive - if your only contribution to 12.2 will be a badly spelled thread hijacking to complain about everything we did wrong, you will have just taken 5 minutes out of everyone else who can make useful changes' openSUSE time, so take it to /dev/null and yourself to the opensuse-kde3 perfect code museum list.

[opensuse-kde] kdesu does not work
by Malte Gell 26 Jan '12

26 Jan '12

I have a strange problem, kdesu does not work on openSUSE 12.1. When I invoke kdesu -c /sbin/yast2 nothing happens, no error message, nothing, no anything. Does anyone have the same issue with openSUSE 12.1 and kdesu or does anyone have a hint for me?

[opensuse-kde] changing length of new KDE control bar
by Malte Gell 25 Jan '12

25 Jan '12

Hello, to get an application starter I have added a new control bar (or whatever this is called) to put icons in. I can change the width of that bar, but not the length. Since I have only few icons in it, I would like to shorten it, but it does not seem to work. Does anyone have a hint?

[opensuse-kde] unsupported media type application/x-konsole
by Křištof Želechovski 25 Jan '12

25 Jan '12

{ zypper what-provides 'mimehandler(application/x-konsole)'; } i | kdebase3-apps | pakiet | 3.5.10.1-24.3.2 | x86_64 | openSUSE-12.1-Update { rpm -q --provides kdebase3-apps; } mimehandler(application/x-konsole) { grep -F konsole $(rpm -ql kdebase3-apps | grep '\.desktop$'); } /opt/kde3/share/applications/kde/konsolesu.desktop:MimeType=application/x-konsole; Are you sure this is the right setup? Anyway, installing kdebase3-apps does not cause the shell file to open anyway. This is not a bug in KDE3 because KDE3 is discontinued. Bug KDE 292378 submitted. As a workaround, maybe we could remove that mimehandler declaration from kdebase3-apps?

Hey, is planned for KDE SC 4.8 the Repos in KDE:Extra (11.4, 12.1, Factory) set? https://build.opensuse.org/project/show?project=KDE%3AExtra If yes, when would it be? I only ask, because I want to adapt the Repolist in the German Wiki.

[opensuse-kde] »KOrganizer Reminder Daemon« doesn't remind me anymore
by Torsten Roters 24 Jan '12

24 Jan '12

After you upgrade from OpenSUSE 11.4 to 12.1 I do not get reminders from KOrganizer Reminder Daemon anymore. Neither Birthdays from the KDE Address Book nor appointments from the Calendar do show up. My frirst guess was to delete ~/.kde4/share/config/korgacrc and ~/.kde4/share/config/korganizerrc but this dindn't helped. Are there any additional suggestions (or a solution) to solve this issue?

[opensuse-kde] Looking for nice application starter
by Malte Gell 24 Jan '12

24 Jan '12

Since cairo dock does not seem to work fully with openSUSE 12.1 I am looking for a KDE alternative. Does anyone know a cute application starter comparable to cairo dock? I tried plasmoid fancy tasks, it comes close to my wishes but it seems to be awkward to change its size.

[opensuse-kde] Upcoming changes to the KDE:Unstable:Playground
by Christophe Giboudeaux 24 Jan '12

24 Jan '12

hi, To prepare for the imminent KDE 4.8 release and keep the amount of built packages reasonable, some repositories will be removed from KDE:Unstable:Playground in the next few days. The following repositories are concerned: - KDE_Release_46_openSUSE_11.3 - KDE_Release_46_openSUSE_11.4 - KDE_Release_47_openSUSE_11.3 - openSUSE_11.3_KDE_Distro_Factory - openSUSE_11.3_KDE_Unstable_SC The idea behind this decision: - Unstable programs means higher build dependencies - If you use some legacy repositories, you're probably not interested in unstable programs. If you're using one of these flavors, please disable this repository before the end of this month. Christophe
