I've tried to install kate5 from unstable KF5 repository, and something went
wrong... So if there is some special procedure to install it, please tell me.
1. I cannot get systemsettings5 to show style and color configuration. I've
already installed all possible packages from the repository which do not
conflict with KDE4, still nothing. Right now kate5 looks so alien that I have
to return back to kate 4.
2. I've tried neon5 and I see that it stores kdeglobals in ~/.project-neon5-
kde/config and second copy in ~/.project-neon5-kde/share/config, but my local
install creates all k* configs in ~/.config, which I do not want. Is that
normal, or I'm missing something here?
3. I've installed openSUSE 13.1 KDE on VirtualBox, then installed plasma5-
session and all the dependencies it wanted, uninstalling kde4 completely.
Changed displaymanager to sddm. After rebooting I see plain white screen
instead of DM. Autologin was enable, it did not worked, so that's not only
graphics issue.
4. Tried to install kdm back - it wants some parts of KDE, again conflicting
with plasma5. And I thought that DM should not be environment-specific...
5. Installed lightdm. This time Plasma5 showed me loading progress bar, and
after that showed me default wallpaper with mouse cursor. That's it. No
panels, no shortcuts, no reaction to mouse click.
On the internet everyone says that it is possible to have KDE4 and use some
kf5-based apps, but I was not able to find a way to do it, so unless there is
some magic way to do it which I missed - will have to stay with KDE4.

Subject: [FOSDEM] FOSDEM 2015 Desktops DevRoom Call for Talks
Date: Sunday 26 October 2014, 23.58:57
From: Pau Garcia i Quiles <pgquiles(a)elpauer.org>
To: FOSDEM visitors <fosdem(a)lists.fosdem.org>, devroom-managers(a)lists.fosdem.org <devroom-managers(a)lists.fosdem.org>, desktops-devroom(a)lists.fosdem.org
Hello,
--8<---
FOSDEM <http://www.fosdem.org> is one of the largest gatherings of Free
Software contributors in the world and happens each February in Brussels
(Belgium). One of the tracks will be the Desktops DevRoom (formerly known
as “CrossDesktop DevRoom”), which will host Desktop-related talks.
We are now inviting proposals for talks about Free/Libre/Open-source
Software on the topics of Desktop development, Desktop applications and
interoperability amongst Desktop Environments. This is a unique opportunity
to show novel ideas and developments to a wide technical audience.
Topics accepted include, but are not limited to: Enlightenment, Gnome, KDE,
Unity, XFCE, LXQt, Windows, Mac OS X, software development for the desktop,
general desktop matters, applications that enhance desktops and web (when
related to desktop).
Talks can be very specific, such as the advantages/disadvantages of
development with Qt on Wayland over X11/Mir; or as general as predictions
for the fusion of Desktop and web in 5 years time. Topics that are of
interest to the users and developers of all desktop environments are
especially welcome. The FOSDEM 2014 schedule
<https://archive.fosdem.org/2014/schedule/track/desktops/> might give you
some inspiration.
Please include the following information when submitting a proposal:
- Your name
- The title of your talk (please be descriptive, as titles will be
listed with around 250 from other projects)
- Short abstract of one or two paragraphs
- Short bio (with photo)
- Requested time: from 15 to 45 minutes. Normal duration is 30 minutes.
Longer duration requests must be properly justified. You may be assigned
LESS time than you request.
The deadline for submissions is December 7th 2014. FOSDEM will be held on
the weekend of January 31st-February 1st 2015 and the Desktops DevRoom will
take place on Sunday, February 1st 2015. Please use the following website
to submit your proposals: https://penta.fosdem.org/submission/FOSDEM15 (you
do not need to create a new Pentabarf account if you already have one from
past years).
You can also join the devroom’s mailing list, which is the official
communication channel for the DevRoom: desktops-devroom(a)lists.fosdem.org
<https://lists.fosdem.org/private/desktops-devroom/> (subscription page
<https://lists.fosdem.org/listinfo/desktops-devroom> for the mailing list)

I've added a number of applications to the 'Favourites' section in the
kickoff menu. How do I:
a) remove unwanted entries?
b) change the order they appear in?
The right click on the gecko option to 'Edit Applications' does not
include 'Favourites'.

Hi.
I sent this e-mail to opensuse-testing mailing list and they recommended me to
send this
mailing list because it is read by the KDE packagers.
I don't participate usually because I use OpenSuSE like developer and desktop
user, I don't make
something "special", but this time I decided to e-mail because I can see some
problems in
Plasma 5 in 13.1 in 13.2 RC1. My only intention it is the information be
helpful.
I had installed OpenSuSE 13.2 RC1 in a virtual machine with Plasma 5 and I
want to give my
impressions:
- In the installation there is not the option to add a repository with KDE 5
applications, in my
opinion it would be a good idea to add one. I know they are not stable but a
person wants to try
Plasma 5, probably, he/she wants to try the apps.
- I didn't see the possibility to install sddm instead of kdm. If you are
installing Plasma 5 looks
more consistently.
- One time installed the OS with Plasma 5, you have to configure the repos
manually. It could
be good to give the option in community repositories.
- You can't change the color scheme, it is always OpenSuSE colors.
- I have various crashes of Plasma, in composer I use OpenGL 3.1. Mainly using
kickoff.
- When I click in a PDF file in dolphin, okular doesn't open, however if I am
going to main menu,
open okular and drag the PDF file, I can see it without problem.
- I use galician language, in order to can configure it in System Settings, I
had to install kde4-
l10n-gl. It is a little confusing.
- I installed the KDE5 versions of apps (ark, dolphin, ...). The icons in
favorites in kickoff didn't
work, I had to erase them and add again.
Best regards.

I added the feed in Thunderbird the other week but noticed these issues,
so I contacted the maintainer a few days ago via the link on the Planet
openSUSE website. So far, no response.
But it must therefore be a problem with the feed, not KDE or an app.

OS: Opensuse 13.1 wiith KDE:Current Repo
The issue is not new to me but its getting worse currently.
I use Akregator to read rss feeds. Feeds working fine except some of the
preloaded (like novell security which never worked).
But Planet Opensuse just constantly makes trouble. I get news articles from as
far back as 2004/2006 delivered as new. I get feeds delivered several times (
The series from Peter Gannon about oggcamp was delivered by know ~ 20 times as
new and still get the like 3,4 x a day) If I look at the website everything
seems fine.
Not all articles are affected though up to 3 times is quite normal.
I already tried deleting the feed and creating it again - no changes.
I'm pretty lost do you think this could be an akregator issue or a planet
opensuse issue?
Does anyone else experiences this?
Thx
Stefan

Hello fellow packagers,
I just updated digikam to 4.4.0 and noticed the following rpmlint warning:
[ 1912s] digikam.x86_64: W: suse-kde4-missing-dependency
%kde4_pimlibs_requires
[ 1912s] The package builds against a KDE4 related library, but it is missing
the
[ 1912s] runtime depencency macro. please add the suggested macro to the
(sub-)package
[ 1912s] listing in the spec file.
It was already present in the previous builds. Did you omit that dependency
deliberately (because there are some runtime checks), or should we add it?
Regards
Nico
