Feature changed by: Will Stephenson (wstephenson) Feature #306350, revision 5 Title: Implement Debian's Kaboom KDE Migration-Tool openSUSE-11.2: New Priority Requester: Mandatory Requested by: Maximilian Maher (maxmaher) Description: kaboom is tool for migrating your KDE user settings and data files from KDE 3 to KDE 4. Depending on the options you choose, you may: 1. Use you current KDE 3 settings as initial for KDE 4. 2. Use your existing KDE 4 settings and replace current KDE 3 settings. 3. Merge current KDE 4 settings with current KDE 3 settings (experimental). 4. Start KDE with defaults settings and data. http://pkg-kde.alioth.debian.org/kaboom.html + Discussion: + #1: Will Stephenson (wstephenson) (2009-04-09 17:13:07) + We already have kde4-migrate, which performs 1. automatically on first + login. + 2. is not relevant to openSUSE as we have can both KDE and KDE4 + installed in parallel, unlike Debian, so we keep .kde and .kde4. + 3. is redundant because of 1. except the special case of merging + settings from apps which, during the KDE 4 introduction phase, were not + available for KDE 4. We'll extend kde4-migrate to cover these cases too + for future opensuse releases. + 4. Could be offered as an option, but is it necessary? + Eventually, when KDE3 is no longer available even in the Build Service, + we will automatically migrate .kde4 to .kde and tar up the old .kde. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/306350
