Hi people. I suggest you all to subscribe to opensuse-kde3(a)opensuse.org so I
could send e-mails directly to this mailing list.
I have several questions, suggestions and clarifications regarding status
of KDE:KDE3.
- First of all I have to announce that we completed for the most part moving
of packages from KDE:Communitry. It has been done much quicker than by
the KDE4 team. Some packages are not moved because they have problems either
with build or during runtime. Some packages like ksquirrel have well-known
security issues. I do not know should we include them in KDE:KDE3 or not.
- It seems that some packages were disabled for Factory. Namely,
kdemultimedia3 and anything related to Beagle. Please tell me the actual
reason or the disabling. I can add to KDE:KDE3 repository any libraries
needed for the build. For example, I can restore kdemultimedi3. Or are there
any other reasons for the disabling? Beagle in particular is essential for
finding topics in KDE help system.
- I am planning to add some soft dependencies to some basic KDE packages
to improve user's experience. For example, it would be good in my view if
kdebase3-workplace recommended kde3-knemo and desktoptext-config.
Also some plugins may be recommended. Please tell me if this is against
OpenSUSE packaging policy.
- I have long-range plans to include Qt3-based versions of Yast2, VirtualBox
and Firefox. If somebody has experience in compiling Firefox for Qt3, any
help welcome.
- OpenSUSE maintainers, what's your opinion about possibility
to include KDE3 option to OpenSUSE? The basic part of KDE3 (including kicker,
konq, ksysguard, kcontrol) is already included (to be precise, it was never
removed from OpenSUSE), but the ability to logon on KDE3 is disabled.
The status of KDE3 repository has improved considerably in recent times,
so it may look reasonable to reconsider KDE3's status. To enable a user to
install KDE3 on his system we need to include only a tiny package
kdebase3-session which takes only 4 kb, this package includes the .desktop
file for the session manager so the user could choose KDE3 on the logon
screen.
- Besides this one can consider including KDE:KDE3 repository in the list
of community repositories along with the Education repo etc so a user could
be able to install the full version of KDE3 from the community repo.
- Some KDE3 packages (koffice, pdfedit) currently experience problems
with building for Factory 32-bit architecture. This is not a KDE3 bug, but
an issue of brocken zlib in Factory, it was also observed on other
distributions. I have reported a bugreport:

I use KDE3 on 32 bit 11.2. I just did zypper dup yet again, which seems
required more than weekly for many weeks now.
Every login is accompanied by the login sound being cut short, and the
KNotify window opening and reporting useless backtrace & "system
configuration startup check disabled". What needs to be done to make this not
happen any more?

Does anybody use Network Manager with KDE3? I need a feedback, whether it
works well and what versions do you use.

As you know, build of kuickshow (a part of kdegraphics3 package) has been
disabled for OpenSUSE versions > 11.2.
This was done because it requires imlib library which is not included in 11.3.
kuickshow cannot be built with imlib2, a replacement for imlib.
Now I managed to build imlib for 11.3. So theoretically kuickshow can be
restored.
So my qustion is do you guys want kuickshow in OpenSUSE >= 11.3 ?
Do you use it? If it is restored, then kdegraphics3 would require and obsolete
and unsupported library imlib.

Hello SuSE KDE3 people,
Last night I installed the latest Google-Earth on my 11.3 KDE3 box.
Google-earth complains it cannot find/open libGL.so.1 and it fails.
I have checked my /usr/lib64 directory and it is there. However, it is there
but as a link to libGL.so.1.2 Is there another real libGL.so.1 that google
wants and not libGL.so.1.2

Ilya, Robert, all,
Does anyone have a repository that would work better for updating kde3 on 11.0
than the sle-11 repo?
