[opensuse-kde] Advice about availability of KDE 4.8 (for 12.1 as a for instance)
by Basil Chupin 01 Feb '12

01 Feb '12

One of the great things about Linux is the variety of choices one has in using what one's heart desires. And the really great thing about openSUSE is this vast choice which one gets to select from when one wants to install something. Take for example the choice of repos when one comes to, say, something like KDE. There is the Factory repo. There is the Unstable repo. And there is Stable repo. Not to mention the Playground repo. Oh, I missed the SC repo. All good stuff. But what do they REALLY mean to the man in the street? SFA really. I am reading that KDE 4.8 has been officially released but as yet has not quite reached openSUSE repo(s) [something about being built, or something]. Would it be presumptuous of me to ask the powers-to-be to please clearly announce when KDE 4.8 becomes available and announce in, say, opensuse-announce and even in this mail list but to also CLEARLY state what the repos are and should be added to Software Management repository list to be able to upgrade one's (12.1 system, now running KDE 4.7) to KDE 4.8? Pretty please? But with another condition as an addendum: none of this KFC, CIA, ABC. et al local, gooblydook, jargon abbreviations but real, true to life, list of all the repositories required to get the job done such as (picked out of thin air): http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/Unstable:/Playground/ [EXAMPLE ONLY!] OK? Is it a deal? BC -- But when you take arms from people, then you start to upset them, you show you do not trust them because you are frightened or cagey.

[opensuse-kde] KDE:Distro:Factory submitrequest policy change
by Will Stephenson 01 Feb '12

01 Feb '12

Following a brief discussion on IRC, we've decided to limit SR checkins to KDE:Distro:Factory to Tuesdays and Fridays, in order to allow the OBS time to complete a rebuild and publish it. We'll see how this policy works in practice for a couple of weeks and then review it. Please give feedback here if you are contributing to KDF.

[opensuse-kde] What is Kolab resources status?
by Pavel Baranchikov 01 Feb '12

01 Feb '12

Hello. like to use Kolab resources - Calendar and Kontact info, stored in my IMAP folders. The latest release, where I could configure it was KDE 4.6. For now I can add Kolab proxy resource as an Akonadi agent. But it does not provide me with any "Imap functionality" (as it was called earlier - in KDE 3). So... is there a way to use the IMAP folder-stored Calendar and Kontact information for now? Best regards, Pavel Baranchikov. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kde+owner(a)opensuse.org
