[opensuse-kde] Bug Squashing Session
by Lubos Lunak 13 May '09

13 May '09

Hello, according to the KDE Community Week schedule (http://en.opensuse.org/Community_Week/KDE_Schedule) tomorrow and Friday there is a bug squashing session, where you can help with reducing the number of KDE bugreports reported for openSUSE (and we for sure have more than enough of those). If you would like to help KDE in openSUSE, feel free to join. There are no special technical knowledge requirements except for basics like being able to use the bugzilla. Having a recent KDE version installed is recommended (KDE:KDE42, KDE:KDE4:Factory or KDE:KDE4:UNSTABLE). I have put up a wiki page at http://en.opensuse.org/KDE/BugSquashing where I tried to sum up everything I find relevant (comment&corrections welcome). Please make sure you read the bug screening guidelines at http://en.opensuse.org/Bugs:KDE/Screening too. Please also note that there is an IRC meeting scheduled at 16:00 UTC on Thursday.

Hi. KDE 4.2.3 is out. Will it be available in KDE:42 repository? Or KDE:KDE4:Factory only? Best regards, -- Mariusz Fik openSUSE Community Member -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] What to do with package webkam in KDE:KDE4:Community?
by Matthias Fehring 13 May '09

13 May '09

Hello list, I tried the package webkam from KDE:KDE4:Community, to play a littlebit around with my webcam, but it does not work. At first, the start script had a bug, which I fixed with a simple patch. Then ruby-kde4 was not installed, so I added it to the Requires of the package. So, now it wants to have ruby-gnome2 installed because of GStreamer bindings. But I can not find this anywhere in the Build Service. Or am I looking for the wrong package name? I think it is not really appropreate to build GNOME packages like ruby-gnome2 in KDE:* projects, but is there another way? I have committed my changes to the package but it will not work without ruby- gnome2.

[opensuse-kde] KDE 4.2.3 on 11.1 login problem
by Matthew Gibbs 11 May '09

11 May '09

Hello all- During an attempted upgrade to KDE 4.2.3 from KDE 4.2.2 KDE broke. As it was upgrading, something occurred that caused KDE to not recognize commands...like if I hit ALT+F2 and entered a command it would give an error. Additionally, Yast2 starting giving errors like "could not mount /var/adm/packagename/blah" or something to that effect. I also could not log in to a tty. A reboot (and finishing the upgrade) seemed to fix everything...except KDE. I can log in to IceWM, but if I try to log in to KDE it starts to log in and then the X server resets. Does anyone have any ideas on how to start troubleshooting this? I can post any logs that are requested.

[opensuse-kde] Not possible to reply on email in Sent folder
by Richard Bos 08 May '09

08 May '09

Hi, I tried to reply on an e-mail that I sent, hence the e-mail is stored in the Sent folder. However, the reply and 'reply all' were both greyed out. I used to do this often in the past, has this changed recently? I upgraded this evening to kde-4.2.3, does this update have to do with it perhaps? When I moved the e-mail to the Inbox I could reply on it... Not being able to sent an e-mail seem to be caused by the Sent folder....??? -- Richard -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] Beta1 packages building in UNSTABLE
by Raymond Wooninck 07 May '09

07 May '09

Hi, I saw that the UNSTABLE repository is building the beta1 packages for KDE4.3. Some of them have failed due to a new dependency on libknotificationitem, which is build with kdelibs4-experimental. I took the liberty to branch those ones of and adjust the spec file to include the new BuildRequires. Based on the buildresult for kdebase4-runtime, I have created submitreq's for the following packages to resolve the BuildRequires error kdebase4-runtime submitreq 9971 kdebase4-workspace submitreq 9972 kdegraphics4 submitreq 9973 kdemultimedia4 submitreq 9974 kdepim4 submitreq 9975 kdeutils4 submitreq 9976 I also adjusted the spec for the following package and removed the obsolete files kde4-webkitpart submitreq 9970 I hope that this is useful for those working on this.

[opensuse-kde] no logout since 4.2.2 R114
by Oliver 07 May '09

07 May '09

Hi, it's now the third time after a KDE-Update this year, that the logout- button doesn't work anymore. Not from panel, not from the menu and also not from the right mousebutton. I just can change the user and than use logout from KDM-Menu. This is such a stupid bug, error or whatelse, that I really cannot remember, how I got this button to work in the past. It would make me really lucky to get the hint how to let this button or menuentry work. Thanks. -- gruß Oliver -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] KDE4 Community and Playground projects
by Matthias Fehring 07 May '09

07 May '09

Hello list, I thought that the Community project is for stable software and the Playground project is for development versions. Now I see that the Daisy Plasmoid > http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php/Daisy?content=102077 is accepted for the Community project. This plasmoid was already there, but I have moved it to Playground, because upstream says that it is an alpha version. So, in my oppinion it should be reside in Playground till it is marked as stable by upstream. In Playground there are some other Plasmoids that are not stable. :) Best greetings Buschmann ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- openSUSE Member - de.opensuse.org Sys-Op http://en.opensuse.org/User:Buschmann23 http://en.opensuse.org/How_to_Participate http://en.opensuse.org/Geeko_wants_you!

[opensuse-kde] KDE 4.3 Themeing and openSUSE 11.2
by Cameron Seader 05 May '09

05 May '09

Greetings, I propose we do the following for our Themeing in KDE 4.3 / openSUSE 11.2 AlbertoP, bittin, and others are on board.. I suggest we use pinheiro's suggestion here http://pinheiro-kde.blogspot.com/2009/04/2-wallpaers.html and have him create the green wallpaper in geeko colors. We can then use the KDE 4.3 default Air theme with this wallpaper which would be a nice touch. Lets get away from the Dark Panel and go with the Air suttle white/transparent Panel. Very Nice. Thoughts?? -Cameron -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] Repositories changes and Factory devel repositories.
by Cristian Morales Vega 05 May '09

05 May '09

Looking at amarok from openSUSE:Factory (no kde4-amarok, that still exists) I see: %if %suse_version > 1030 BuildRequires: libmusicbrainz3-devel %endif But at http://amarok.kde.org/blog/archives/809-Missing-features-in-Amarok-2.html was said that musicbrainz was not going to be implemented in Amarok2 ("MusicBrainz (we have plans for something better)"). $ osc branch openSUSE:Factory amarok Server returned an error: HTTP Error 404: Not Found Unknown package amarok in project KDE:Misc It seems the devel package should point to KDE:KDE4:Factory:Desktop instead of KDE:Misc. Then, at kde4-k3b (still not renamed) I see %if %suse_version > 1030 BuildRequires: libmusicbrainz3-devel %endif But the new k3b needs "libmusicbrainz-devel". webpin says it is available at least since 10.3, so in all supported versions, so the "%if %suse_version > 1030" probably can be removed. $ osc branch openSUSE:Factory kde4-k3b Server returned an error: HTTP Error 404: Not Found Unknown package kde4-k3b in project KDE:KDE4:Factory:Extra-Apps This devel package should point to KDE:KDE4:Playground, I suppose. So, since I don't want to open a bug report just for this... take this e-mail like a formal report ;-) - Wrong devel repos - Two amarok packages in Factory - musicbrainz in k3b and amarok - In general, devel repositories from Factory should be revised. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help(a)opensuse.org
