Re: Daily KDE4 Subversion Packages

Hi,

Anyone have any idea if KDE4 prevents DVD operations (rip and copy)? I've tried both today with two different source DVDs and multiple blank DVDs.  I used k3b and K9copy. Nither will write to files or to a physical DVD. 

Thanks

Re: Daily KDE4 Subversion Packages

MillTek, well I don't use k9copy, but if you're talking abut k3b from extragear/multimedia in this repo it can burn DVDs, it's just not recomended at all due to lack of stability .

I would check on dvd burning tools and user priviledges....

Re: Daily KDE4 Subversion Packages

Today's revision looks good, except plasma crashes on configuring folder view & removing analog clock

If it ain't broke, broke it then fix it.

Re: Daily KDE4 Subversion Packages

Yes, current build is very good.
Hm ... the dudes from KDE team are working very hard - optimization in kde-svn is amazing!
And of course, THANKS MARK for the packages! Without you we will suck cmake's di*k! :D:D:D

Edit:
@markc: you can start building kvirc4  from svn if you want and put it in [gui] repo - it is good qt4 client, better than quassel in my opinion :)

Re: Daily KDE4 Subversion Packages

1.Here's one small change to kderewiew: KDE partitionmanager is now in kdereview and it needs parted (libparted) as dependancy.

2.KGrubEditor SVN ( Aur has only 0.8.5 this is SVN ) would be a nice addition to gui:

##svn co https://kgrubeditor.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/kgrubeditor

pkgname=kgrubeditor
pkgver=1.0
pkgrel=$(date -u +%Y%m%d%H)
pkgdesc="A KDE 4 GUI for GRUB"
arch=('i686' 'x86_64')
url="http://sourceforge.net/projects/${pkgname}"
license=('GPL')
depends=('grub' 'kdelibs')
makedepends=('cmake')
conflicts=('kgrubeditor')
replaces=('qgrubeditor')
source=($pkgname-$pkgver.tar.bz2)

build() {
  cd $srcdir/$pkgname-$pkgver/trunk
  cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr
  make VERBOSE=1 || return 1
  make VERBOSE=1 DESTDIR=$pkgdir install || return 1
}

I hope u don't mind me asking for new features/packages, I know it takes time to maintain all this, and adding more things is just more job to do.
But then again: It won't stop me asking

P.S. I've never seen repo that updates same packages twice a day, exelent job man.

Re: Daily KDE4 Subversion Packages

@Githzerai: well it makes it much easier when someone contributes, and tests, a PKGBUILD. It builds out of tree like normal kde apps (see PKGBUILD below). Also added parted to kdereview and uploaded it. Thank you!

http://eth-os.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ … r/PKGBUILD

@EvilSide: I'll look into a kvirc again. I did provide it ages ago but it was an ugly build so I searched for something else and found quassel, which at least built cleanly. Yes, I agree, quassel is awkward to use with it's separate server component.

Re: Daily KDE4 Subversion Packages

I tried installing the kdereview package several days ago. Since then I have no system tray.  Dooes anyone have instructions on installing it properly (I assume I did something wrong) and if not, how do I get the normal systray back?

Thanks

Re: Daily KDE4 Subversion Packages

@MillTek: I think there was a test version of the system tray in kdereview but that was more than a week ago. There should only be 2 obvious apps in kdereview now, partitionmanager and bomber. Do a pacman -Ql kdereview to check the package contents and if it's got anything to do with "system" or "tray" (ie; append | egrep "(system|tray)" to the above command) then you must have an old kdereview. If so then uninstall it first then install the latest kde-svn updates along with the latest kdereview.

Re: Daily KDE4 Subversion Packages

markc, excuse me if you have mentioned it earlier, but how do you follow kde trunk? Do you use svn, cvs?
I'm asking because i've seen this feature http://www.ereslibre.es/?p=158 (inline preview of open/save dialog of kdelibs), and the programmer (Rafael Fernández López) has mentioned that he commited to svn on 2 October 2008, but i haven't still seen it in action.
Do you have a script that updates source code from kde.org?

Re: Daily KDE4 Subversion Packages

@capthookb: oh, is that what the slider in the file dialog is for... good stuff, it's there in 20081102, and now 1103. These kind of changes should show up, sometimes, under 24 hours but certainly within 48 hours. My build script is the [dev]/mpkg package along with the source packages from http://eth-os.googlecode.com and, yes, it updates my svn checkout just before building the package so sometimes the uploaded binary packages are only 6 hours behind the most recent checkins.

Re: Daily KDE4 Subversion Packages

Yes, but in the screencast the slider is in a different place than it is in the packages you compile. Also there is an option for inline preview, instead of icons showing the image contained in the file. But in your packages there isn't any option for inline preview. There is an option only for aside preview. Rafael commited these changes in 02 of October and now we the date is 03 November . It's been over a month and that's why i'm curious about what is hapenning.

Your package(notice the position of the slider):

and extra available option for inline preview:

I didn't know that your script was there. I had only downloaded your PKGBUILDS. I'll take a look at it.

What you see on Rafael's blog is long outdated by now. The dialog is being worked on. It is not final yet, but has come a long way. You can compare what you have to a recent screenshot from the planet here: http://nowwhatthe.blogspot.com/2008/10/qt-creator.html

Re: Daily KDE4 Subversion Packages

Hi Mark , here's anotherlittle problem , superkaramba is broken here 'coz I upgraded to python 2.6 and your installation seems not to.
I've read that you don't use that i686 very much, but a Syu would be worth on that partition as python is such a critical package that links everyware.. thanks
:-)

Ooops, you are right. I was always looking for a menu option and i didn't notice the icon that turns inline preview on or off. Thanks for clearing that out.

Re: Daily KDE4 Subversion Packages

from aseigo and the plasma-devel mailing list:

in approximately one hour i'll be moving libplasma to kdelibs. we'll have
until next monday to catch things we've missed, so don't have a heart attack
quite yet, but i would like to emphasize the importance of this move

be careful , some breakage are expected in the next days ;-)

Re: Daily KDE4 Subversion Packages

Just saw this on websvn- looks like pretty drastic changes to me.  http://websvn.kde.org/trunk/KDE/kdelibs/plasma/

I was just getting set to rebuild my Gentoo kdesvn boxes, but now I guess I'll wait.  I suppose here on Arch it'll be a few days (at least) for the next package builds by markc.  Hope it all goes well.   Looking forward to seeing what this is all about.

UPDATE: Over on Gentoo kdesvn, this is breaking the ebuild, so probably markc will need to make some adjustments here.

Re: Daily KDE4 Subversion Packages

My syetem tray (where volume control is etc.) disappeared a few days ago when I tried the kdereview package. Any ideas how to get it back???

Thanks.

Re: Daily KDE4 Subversion Packages

Yes, 2008110614 works very very nice.

BTW, I forgot to say thanks for KGrubEditor. Great to see it in repo, and great to see myself as contributor.

Which brings me to Kvirc. Someone asked earlier about it, so here's PKGBUILD.

It's a very modified version of AUR one, with all optional deps enabled.

##svn co https://svn.kvirc.de/svn/trunk/kvirc

pkgname=kvirc
pkgver=2.0
pkgrel=$(date -u +%Y%m%d%H)
pkgdesc="Qt4 based IRC-Client"
arch=('i686' 'x86_64')
url="http://www.kvirc.net"
license=('GPL')
depends=('qt' 'glibc' 'openssl' 'kdelibs' 'gettext' 'perl')
makedepends=('cmake')
source=($pkgname-$pkgver.tar.bz2)

build() {
  cd $srcdir/$pkgname-$pkgver/
  cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DWITH_KDE4=On
  make VERBOSE=1 || return 1
  make VERBOSE=1 DESTDIR=$pkgdir install || return 1
}

Funny thing happened: Namely, KDE4 support is disabled by default in CMakeLists.txt, and while I was wasting time trying to make nice patch to enable it, my girlfriend came and just drop it::"why don't you enable it in cmake line ?"
And now I wonder: Should I be proud that I have a girfriend who actually knows how to compile or should I just go and shoot myself......

Anyway, hope the pkgbuild will be useful....

Re: Daily KDE4 Subversion Packages

MillTek, it works here, with kdereview, ever since kdereview was added.

Systray is a part of kdebase, might want to try reinstalling?

Is it available in "add new applet" dialog? Should be...

You're right it was there. Next time I'll look before I squawk!

Thanks.

Re: Daily KDE4 Subversion Packages

@Githzerai: thanks yet again for the kvirc PKGBUILD. It seems to work so well I'll remove quassel from my gui section. If I were you I would buy your girlfriend a box of chocolates :-)
