I´am pretty sure you know of that and has done it already, but just to be
sure(do not like to see someone suffer on not necessary software states):
The following steps are tested by me, used for common work and did not break
the system, (but you loose your widgets that are on the desktop -> you get a
blank one and bring them on again.
You can bring your system to KDE4.7.3 with adding following repositories with
Yast2->Repositories -> Add -> URL -> just copy and paste the
following(separated runs):
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/Release:/47/openSUSE_12.1/
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/Qt:/STABLE/openSUSE_12.1/
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/Active/openSUSE_12.1/
After importing the gpg keys close yast2 and call the konsole.
su -> password -> zypper dub
It brings your system to the newest KDE version.Alternatively you can use yast2
-> install software -> package sources -> switch sources. I guess next weekend
there will be KDE4.7.4 in that repros.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I was just going to look at KDE programming by myself just before you come
around with your ticket here and in the last days I´ve learned some and dived
into KDE code.
I´ve also looked at kmail, but can´t do there anything.They have wrote a
seperated subframework called KDE PIM that operates over the common KDE
libraries, which makes it very difficult to follow a bug trough the code
without loosing overview. Changes there should be done only by people who
really understand what is going on in this.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When you want to help yourself in long term there is a possibility for perl
developers.
Bernhard Wiedeman has introduced openQA for a longer while, which is a
enviroment for (semi)automated testing in linux development phase. Beside
openSUSE12.x tests it is platform independent and I´ve just seen that there are
testruns for debian and also one for BSD - last is surprising.
So with the look to openSUSE12.2 - development has already started - you can
bring up modules for openQA that bring there tests for your needs.
Look at:
http://openqa.opensuse.org/
http://www.os-autoinst.org/testmodules.html
http://www.os-autoinst.org/todo.txt
The code is on sourceforge when I remember correct. Have a search.
Greetings and good luck.
