[opensuse-kde] KDE:Unstable:Playground:Telepathy ready for testing
by Christophe Giboudeaux 26 Mar '12

26 Mar '12

Hi, During the last meeting, the decision was made to create a KDE:Unstable:Playground:Telepathy repository. As the name suggests, it contains the unstable KDE-Telepathy packages. I'll remove the packages currently in KDE:Unstable:Playground in a couple days. QA: 1/ Why creating another repository ? - The reason is quite simple: the KDE Telepathy code needs some packages that are not available in Opensuse < 12.2. The dependencies were fixed by linking some packages from the OpenSUSE:Factory repository. The consequence is that enabling this new repository *may* break your Gnome Installation if you have one. The following packages were linked: - farstream, - gstreamer-0_10( + plugins-base & plugins-bad), - mjpegtools, - pidgin, - telepathy-farstream, - telepathy-glib, - telepathy-logger Note that you may prefer the Packman repository for the GStreamer packages. 2/ Why aren't there 11.4 packages ? - The dependencies were almost unable to meet, really. More packages would have been linked, namely: libnice, librdf, vala, glib2 > 2.30, GCC 4.6 and probably more. 3/ How to enable this repository ? - I just updated http://en.opensuse.org/KDE_repositories, the modifications might take a couple hours/days to appear. 4/ What should I install ? - There is a meta package that will install the base packages. Just install "telepathy-kde". Additionally, you may install the following packages: - ktp-call-ui, - ktp-ssh-contact 5/ Will there be stable packages ? Yes. Our goal is to have the KDE-telepathy packages in OpenSUSE 12.2. KDE:Distro:Factory will host the stable packages when KDE-Telepathy 0.4 is out. 6/ How to report issues ? - Reply to this message for *installations* issues, Use https://bugs.kde.org for any other issue. Have fun !

[opensuse-kde] Creating a 'x86_64/libqt4-32bit-devel' package from parts of the i586/libqt4-devel' package
by Claus Christmann 23 Mar '12

23 Mar '12

Good Afternoon While fighting a '32bit-compile-on-64bit-system' fight I noticed that there are no .so symlinks for the Qt libraries in /usr/lib/, there are only the libQt*.so.? symlinks which can be created with ldconfig. Normally the package libqt4-devel provides those .so links. However, on a x86_64 setup, libqt4-devel only has the symlinks for /usr/lib64 which makes sense, as the whole 32bit Qt (user) stuff is in libqt4-32bit, which is not a requirement to have when one installs libqt4-devel on a x86_64 system. After I made all the symlinks in /usr/lib by hand, I noticed that the libqt4-devel package for the i586 systems obviously contained those symlinks (among some other stuff). So here is my question: Could "somebody" make a x86_64/libqt4-32bit-devel package by "simply" (I have no idea how to do this and hence can't really judge if that indeed is simple...) taking the i586/libqt4-devel package, take out all the stuff other than /usr/lib/*, and repackaging it as x86_64/libqt4-32bit-devel? This would allow people who need to compile Qt projects both for 32 and 64 bit targets to install that package and safe some typing or GUI clicking (and even more time when they, like me, don't realize that this is the reason why CMake's find_library() doesn't return the expected results... but that's off-topic) As this is my first post to the list and I don't really know much about the hole magic around RPM packaging either (so far I've only been a happy user), I would appreciate any feedback/hint/how-to or nudge in some (other) direction. Also, please let me know if this list is not the right place to bring this up. Thanks for reading my post.

[opensuse-kde] Freezing old subprojects
by todd rme 23 Mar '12

23 Mar '12

I notice that we have a number of subproject for versions of KDE that are not being updated and openSUSE releases that are not being updated. Examples include: KDE:Release:46 KDE:Release:47 KDE:Qt45 KDE:Qt46 KDE:Qt47 Is there a reason we need to leave these enabled? Are they getting a significant amount changes? If not, to free up resources, might it be a good idea to disable building on these repos? I notice that the last build of kdelibs on KDE:Release:46 was yesterday, so there is apparently still builds going on there. Also, off-topic but it looks like openSUSE 11.3 is still enabled on some, I think it should probably be removed outright. -Todd -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kde+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] marble failing to build in KDE 4.8 in Tumblweed

I'm getting the following error: ... checking filelist marble-4.8.1-2.1.x86_64.rpm: directories not owned by a package: - /usr/lib64/qt4/plugins/imports/org Yet this isn't showing up in the 4.8 repo for the marble package, which is confusing, any ideas? greg k-h -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kde+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] Can I load a KDE panel with my own settings?
by Alexander Beck-Ratzka 21 Mar '12

21 Mar '12

Hi Folks, it is still not possible to add starter menues by Kickoff Application Launcher -> Applications and then right click and select "add to panel" (this operation adds the Kickoff Application starter to the panel, irrespective the starter menu you have selected, and the added Kickoff application launcher then open a window where you can select your deired application to be launched...) I have opened a bug report on this, but nothing is happening; therefore I am thinking of a workaround as follows... I am so lucky to have a still working panel with self created application starter menues (e.g. Eclipse which offers me different Eclipse releases...) on my laptop at work, and I also have the configuration file of this panel. So I would be able - at least in principle - to start a panel on my desktop at home using this configuration file. All what I need to know is, how can I start a KDE panel with a different configuration file. Is there ny option which enables this? Another possiblity might be, that I am changing the panel config file "plasma- desktop-appletsrc" in $HIOME/.kde/share/config, and the restart KDE without saving its session during shutdown. How can I do this? Best wishes Alexander -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kde+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kde] cannot add any widget to the panel in KDE 4.7.4
by Alexander Beck-Ratzka 19 Mar '12

19 Mar '12

Hi Folks, I cannot add any widget to my KDE panel using KDE 4.7.4. It was possibel in former versions, but not under 4.7.4 To make it even worse: I can delete widgets fron the panel. So I have deleted accidentally the Kickoff Application Launcher, and I cannot at the Kickoff Application Launcher again. Under these circumstances, the KDE panel is useless for me :-( Who can help?
