Indeed, the _mandir variable was not set in KDE:KDE3. The previous team that adapted KDE3 packages for compatibility with KDE4 simply manually removed any conflicting man page file. Not I set up this variable properly and re-enabled previously removed man pages.
If you would maintain – in its genuine meaning – the code you would have noticed it within the last years, wouldn't you?
This way of solving things was decided before me and it worked until now.
I suggest you to ask Serghei Amelian, the leading KDE3 developer at the moment. He is subscribed to opensuse-kde3 mailing list.
Did I not ask about somebody who knows the code as well as the Trolltech devs? Somebody with more competence than the original authors.
There is no need to be more competent than the original authors.
Because I tend to believe the original authors more than somebody with less knowledge, i.e. rather facts than believes and opinions. One person to replace a whole team of pros – wow! I doubt it.
PS: How is that kio_imap4 using 100% CPU in kdepim3 on x64 systems going? I read its annoying people since months. I thought KDE3 was free of such issues and only KDE4…ah, who am I kidding.
As I know, kmail is completely broken in KDE 4.8., even filters do not work. opensuse-kde3 conference has been flooded by KDE4 users who asked how to use KDE3' kmail under KDE4.
Long live KDE3, resistance is futile, users are resistant to arguments and do not trust the original authors' judgement.
I do not resist anything. I use what I like.
Maybe I'll bother again to answer if somebody new comes about and not always the same old bunch of KDE3 fanboys suffering groupthink.
I do not suffer groupthink.
So if you don't mind, I'll leave this thread since nobody could present any authority more competent than the original authors of the software you claim to know, i.e. maintain.
I do not need a competent authority to use software. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kde+owner@opensuse.org
