Just force it: pacman -Rd libassuan && pacman -S kde4.

heleos · 2008-06-14 13:25:17

That isn't the problem, which is why i posted 2 separate pacman outputs

I installed this package, then I made a new user for kde4, then made it an empty home folder and pt a .bashrc file with the source command for kde4 you said in the first post to include. After that, I opened the new user session via KDM choosing KDE4 as the session and I got this:

Of course it's weird. it seems to be a double session of KDE 3.x and 4.x :S

tanis · 2008-06-15 01:31:57

@LTSmash: Which repository did you use? Could you paste your .bashrc file? And from within this KDE installation execute following in konsole: echo $PATH and post the output.

@heleos: Some dependency problem kde4-svn should work better. As for the beta repository I should create new packages anyway, so I will look at the problem then.

I actually switched with su -l on my regular session, but does it matter? I know already that answer...

[kde4@LTS-Arch ~]$ cat .bashrc
. /etc/profile.d/kde4.sh

EDIT: I forgot to mention, I used your beta repo, not the SVN one...

@LTSmash: Ok, something is wrong with your PATH. /opt/kde4/.bashrc should be in front. What's in the /etc/profile.d/kde4.sh file? Maybe you could just add "export PATH=/opt/kde4/bin:$PATH" to your .bashrc file?

tyr0 · 2008-06-15 17:22:59

Same problem here as described by LTSmash. I can't solve it by adding this line to my .bashrc, however.

tanis · 2008-06-15 17:27:57

What do you mean by 'I can't solve it'? Does that line affect your PATH variable or not?
/opt/kde4/bin should be before /opt/kde in your PATH. If you don't have it, it means that there is something wrong with .bashrc file, or /etc/profile.d/kde4.sh.
What happens if you run ". /etc/profile.d/kde4.sh" manually? Does it affect your PATH in current terminal or not?

tyr0 · 2008-06-15 18:45:16

The script kde4-svn.sh wasn't executable yet. Now everything is fine. Thank you!

tyr0: kde4-svn.sh Should NOT be executable! Otherwise it will affect the whole system and rest of the users!
So change it back to non-executable, or you could loose your KDE 3.5 data!
'. /etc/profile.d/kde4.sh' doesn't need kde4.sh to be executable to work, that is why there is '.' (or 'source') in front!
Besides, kde4 beta and kde4 svn packages have slightly different configuration, so it is either /etc/profile.d/kde4.sh, or /etc/profile.d/kd4-svn.sh files,
and /opt/kde4 - opt/kde4-svn respectively. Check what you are using and if .bashrc uses the correct file!

tyr0 · 2008-06-15 19:34:30

Indeed I have lost my KDE 3.5 data, however, that's not a real problem. I use lightweight WMs for common work. The script is now non executable and the problem appears again.
I use zsh so I added the line to my .zshrc, but I don't think this causes the error. I will play around with KDE4.x in the next days.

bash-3.2$ cat /etc/profile.d/kde4.sh
export KDEDIR=/opt/kde4
export KDEDIRS=$KDEDIR
export KDEHOME=~/.kde4
export XDG_DATA_DIRS=/opt/kde4/share:$XDG_DATA_DIRS

LTSmash · 2008-06-15 19:47:18

Well, now this is weird:

[kde4@LTS-Arch ~]$ echo $PATH
/bin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin:/opt/java/jre/bin:/opt/kde/bin:/opt/mozilla/bin:/usr/bin/perlbin/site:/usr/bin/perlbin/vendor:/usr/bin/perlbin/core:/opt/qt/bin
[kde4@LTS-Arch ~]$ bash
[kde4@LTS-Arch ~]$ echo $PATH
/opt/kde4/bin:/bin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin:/opt/java/jre/bin:/opt/kde/bin:/opt/mozilla/bin:/usr/bin/perlbin/site:/usr/bin/perlbin/vendor:/usr/bin/perlbin/core:/opt/qt/bin

So there's two options: bash isn't that users shell (but according to kuser IT IS), or there's a problem with bash not reading the .bashrc on login...

EDIT: I was using a login shell, so i guess using .bashrc wasn't the nice way to do this:

When bash is invoked as an interactive login shell, or as
a non-interactive shell with the --login option, it first
reads and executes commands from the file /etc/profile, if
that file exists. After reading that file, it looks for
~/.bash_profile, ~/.bash_login, and ~/.profile, in that
order, and reads and executes commands from the first one
that exists and is readable. The --noprofile option may
be used when the shell is started to inhibit this behav-
ior.
When a login shell exits, bash reads and executes commands
from the file ~/.bash_logout, if it exists.
When an interactive shell that is not a login shell is
started, bash reads and executes commands from ~/.bashrc,
if that file exists.

Well, I guess this may help, let me check.

EDIT2: Yeap, that did the trick:

[kde4@LTS-Arch ~]$ echo $PATH
/opt/kde4/bin:/bin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin:/opt/java/jre/bin:/opt/kde/bin:/opt/mozilla/bin:/usr/bin/perlbin/site:/usr/bin/perlbin/vendor:/usr/bin/perlbin/core:/opt/qt/bin

It seems to have added the proper path, I guess you should change your instructions to use this:

echo ". /etc/profile.d/kde4.sh
export PATH=/opt/kde4/bin:$PATH" | tee -a ~/.bash_profile

That instead of using .bashrc

LTSmash · 2008-06-15 20:41:09

Ok, that solved the problem ^-^

I guess I have to suggest for anyone who has this problem to errase their home/foo users folder, then make a new one (owned by that user too) and then make the .bash_profile file... oh, and don't forget not to use kde 3.x with that user cause it might screw things up.

EDIT: Awwww, I guess I have flooded this a lot. Well, I just wanted to ask for one more thing, can you add gtk-qt-engine for KDE4 and the i18n packs? I already have installed the on efor spanish from the official repos, but it seems not to work with KDE4, since it doesn't appears in the control center...

Thanks a lot.

@LTSmash: Look at /etc/skel/.bash_profile file - it executes .bashrc file, so it should be working fine, unless you didn't use your skel files when creating the user...

tanis · 2008-06-23 16:04:21

I have modified KDE4-svn packages a little bit - now package version reflects SVN revision, not a date. Also, KDE4 svn profile file has been moved to /etc/kde4-svn-profile.sh,
so it should be more difficult to break currently used KDE 3.5 configuration
So just modify the .bashrc file to execute /etc/kde4-svn-profile.sh instead (and make sure, that .bashrc is executed by .bash_profile as well).

ozar · 2008-06-23 20:21:29

Nice packaging... thanks again!

They installed perfectly on my fresh Arch install and are running quite well. I'm running KDE4 only on this system and it's getting faster, and things are becoming more stable all the time.

ozar · 2008-06-24 17:41:38

hi, tanis

beta 2 was released today:

http://www.kde.org/announcements/announce-4.1-beta2.php

just wondering... do you still plan to package it?

tanis · 2008-06-24 20:11:10

Yes I do

Great - looking forward to it.

On the KDE4 installation using the SVN packages, I'm having to re-add the the Kickoff button/widget (application launcher) after every new login. Anyone else having this issue, or know how to fix it?

I've already tried locking the widgets, but it's still gone on next login.

Thanks.

tanis · 2008-06-25 20:30:31

I have uploaded beta2 packages to x86_64 repository, including language packs.
Packages for i686 should be there as well within an hour.

For previous users of beta packages: you should modify ~/.bashrc file of KDE4 user to execute ". /etc/kde4-profile.sh" (instead of /etc/profile.d/kde4.sh) - this way it is more difficult to break existing KDE 3.5 installation. Also, make sure that ~/.bash_profile executes ~/.bashrc file, or /etc/kde4-profile.sh directly.

UPDATE:
i686 packages are there as well. Also, I have added qt-4.4 from testing repository.
I experienced problems with window dragging while using qt-copy
When qt-4.4 from testing is used, everything works fine.

Ah, okay I was just going to ask what the difference was in the two Qt packages.

Hey, thanks bunches for the new beta 2 packages. I plan to load them up tomorrow afternoon on a fresh install.

tanis · 2008-06-26 03:00:22

Qt-copy is built from sources in KDE4's svn tree (which is, basically, official Qt with some additional patches needed by KDE4).
testing/qt is official Arch's Qt package (but I think it has some patches included too).
