Here is a list of missing dependencies from KDE:Distro:Factory builds:
This is a very nice list, thanks! Component freeze is in 7 days so we have to act real fast if we want any of these in. Comments inline.
I was supposed to wait to start submitting stuff to KDF until I got the go-ahead, can I start again?
I have put together a list of missing dependencies for packages in KDE:Distro:Factory. They fall in a few categories:
--- 1. Dependencies that appear useful but are not currently packaged in any openSUSE repositories. These may have legal issues (in rough order of how important they appear):
QtIndicate or qindicate: Used by choqok, clementine, . An indicator library.
Never heard this one, is it used for Ubuntu's Unity integration?
I'm not 100% sure, but it appears likely. Are we supporting that?
mobile-broadband-provider-info: Used by NetworkManager-KDE4. Database of mobile broadband service providers. Needed for Mobile Connection Wizard support in Broadband Modem Management. This is currently available from packman.
This is useful, we should check the license and copy the package if possible.
I was wrong, this is already in factory.
OpenConnect: Used by NetworkManager-KDE4. Cisco AnyConnect compatible VPN client. Needed for OpenConnect support in Network Management. I do not see this in OBS at all.
Same for this one.
Somehow I missed this as well, it is in Meega:Netbook.
CLucene1: used by strigi for some sort of searching. Only the 0.9 branch of clucene is available in openSUSE.
This could easily result in a pile of bugs. Need to check what other distributions are doing.
Okay
liblocation: used by marble, presumably for some gps stuff.
Sounds useful.
Apparently this is not useful outside of cell phone.
libmms: Used by kdnetwork and kradio. Needed to build KGet mms support. This is currently available from packman.
Useful again but wonder if there is any patent problems.
I don't know, someone would need to ask about the legal issues.
openjpeg: Free library for JPEG 2000 image compression. Required by the Krita JPEG 2000 filter. This is currently available from packman.
Might be missing due to patent problems.
Ditto.
Spnav: Used by koffice (and calligra). Required by SpaceNavigator 3D mouse plugin. This is available from several home: repositories.
Doesn't hurt.
This might have legal issues as well, though.
DCMTK: Used by koffice (and calligra). Required for processing DICOM structured reports. This is available from several home: repositories.
Ditto.
home:frispete:KDE:Distro:Factory has this. It was updated recently. Is frispete on the opensuse-kde team?
--- 2. Dependencies that are available in OBS, but are not in opensuse-factory:
QNtrack: Used by kdebase4-runtime. Network status tracking library. Provides data input for Solid network status. It is available from the Network repository, amongst other places.
Should be submitted to Factory.
Do I do this or should someone on the opensuse-kde team do it?
ffmpeg: Used by amarok, k3b, kdemultimedia4, kradio, opencv, and strigi. Headers are available, I can see if these will build with them
This is very important if we can get a stub ffmpeg which can be overwritten by a working one.
Someone needs to move the packages into an "offical" repo, then.
XPlanet: Used by kstars for rendering planets. This was in openSUSE but removed, now it is in hamradio.
Any idea why it was removed?
No.
--- 3. Dependencies that are available in openSUSE-factory, but are not currently being used in the package (I can add these easily enough if there is no reason not to):
R: Used by Cantor. A free software environment for statistical computing and graphics. Backend to use R with Cantor.
Can this be a separate package?
Doubtful, but I can check.
libcfitsio0 and libindi: Used by kstars. Once again I am not sure what is going on here, KDF has these packags and assume they are there specifically for kstars.
This should be in, looks like a bug.
I have these installed on my local trunk machine but they aren't detected for some reason. -Todd -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help@opensuse.org
