Daily KDE4 Subversion Packages

Are we building eigen2?

If not, that is why summel can't get kspread to work. Without eigen2 installed, kspread doesn't build.

Last of the Wolves · 2009-08-03 08:08:35

@superstoned: eigen is part of the kdesupport package so I suppose that it's installed on every mashine, running kde

@atomopawn: amarok isn't in extragear anymore. Don't know why but I guess it's because they moved to git. I made an own package for amarok now.

atomopawn · 2009-08-03 08:31:09

@LastOfTheWolves: Actually, I'm pretty sure eigen was split out of kdesupport for 4.4:

Cypher · 2009-08-03 20:39:32

anyone else with the problems of icons gone?

atomopawn · 2009-08-03 21:33:05

Yup. SOME of my Icons went missing (including the K menu icon), but some are still there (certain system tray apps for instance). Weird.

markc · 2009-08-08 05:54:43

Question, is it really worth keeping up with these packages now that 4.3 is out?

There is about an average of 5Gb of traffic pulled per day which I guess equates to at least a dozen people still using them (~5Gb / ~300Mb). They are not all that well maintained (by me). The new split package options of pacman 3.3 look interesting and I see that the standard KDE packages are starting to become split and more complex. This package set could mirror the source package changes to the official packages so they could be swapped in or out more easily but I'm not sure I have the motivation to do this, and to test them... then I got to thinking that maybe it's time to call it quits?

By asking the question, you've already answered it. Motivation is the key - especially for a task such as this.
I - and I'm sure many others will echo my sentiments - have thoroughly enjoyed the free ride and am always
[ silently ] appreciative of the tremendous effort you have put in, always with good result. Time to rest.

Best wishes...

Markc, keep up the good work

I think that we are gonna see serious changes in KDE 4.4 after months, since it is going to be released next year, so don't be disappointed.

venky80 · 2009-08-08 06:49:08

will be sad to see the svn repo go away...it was awesome!

mangus · 2009-08-08 06:56:24

It's your call ,Mark. Everyone in arch community have appreciated your efforts and I really enjoy it. Maybe you can take some holiday only for a while

Last of the Wolves · 2009-08-08 13:08:59

I think I'll continue building the packages for x86_64 and maybe in a month i386 too as I'm going to get a root server with some friends and if this works out I'll try to compile on the server. But I think it will take at least a month to set everything up correctly.
But then there will be a cronjob to get things compiled everyday.
And until that moment I won't split my packages neither as there are some exams I have to pass in the next time and there is a lot to do for me.

superstoned · 2009-08-08 18:25:26

As others have said, your efforts are greatly appreciated. I do agree that, at least for the time being, the official packages will do just fine. However, in a month or two the lack of KDE SVN packages would become unpleasant, at least for me ;-)

Taking it down for a month or two would be a possibility, you could then evaluate if you want to continue?!?

atomopawn · 2009-08-08 20:55:32

Unfortunately, I haven't been able to get your packages to build for me yet, or I would offer to take over maintenance. I'm glad Stephan has offered to keep his packages going at least. I can't tell you how helpful it has been to have these packages available so that I can eat my own dogfood while developing....

No matter what you decide, I'm more grateful than I can say. :-)

Last of the Wolves · 2009-08-13 06:51:40

Replaced qt-copy with kde-qt yesterday. qt-copy was outdated (as someone told here already, I know). kde-qt is now a copy of qt's git-repo. So whoever uses my repo will get Qt 4.5.2 in the next days.

Greetings

Spy · 2009-08-13 11:42:11

@markc - Could you upgarde qt-copy to the newest one ???

markc · 2009-08-13 12:32:07

As far as I can tell kde/svn/qt-copy is the latest and is still at revision 1010779 which I think is the same as it was 2 weeks ago when I built the last package. Is it possible the KDE svn trunk version of qt-copy is no longer the latest codebase... has it moved to gitorious.org perhaps (I couldn't find anything with a quick search)?

I think the gitorious one is actually Qt 4.6, not 4.5.x.

markc · 2009-08-13 13:11:08

I don't get it, there is a file in there called "changes-4.5.1" and I just built arora and it's help says Qt 4.5.1 yet when I type "svn up" in my qt-copy svn checkout it says uptodate at revision 1010779. It's been like this for about 3 weeks now. Unless there is some other official svn repo of qt-copy around somewhere then best I can tell is what we have is the latest.

If anyone has the exact URL of a qt-copy 4.5.2 tarball, or know anything about the most uptodate repo, then I'll be happy to build it.

Pierre · 2009-08-13 13:22:45

The qt-copy in KDE's svn is deprecated and shouldn't be used anymore. There is kde-qt instead. And btw: This is also exactly the version you'll find in extra. So if you don't need Qt 4.6 you can just use that one.

PS: kde-qt can be cloned from git://gitorious.org/+kde-developers/qt/kde-qt.git

Your discussion would have been shorter, if you read my post!

@markc: you can just copy&paste my kde-qt/PKGBUILD and copy all extra files from qt-copy as there is nearly nothing changed in the way it has to be compiled (except I added --opensource to configure and removed ./apply-patches as this is no longer necessary).

markc · 2009-08-13 22:46:04

Thanks guys, all I needed was a link to whatever is the right qt-copy to use these days. Coming right up next build.

Please let me know when the rest of KDE changes over to Git... or whatever parts in the mean time.

markc · 2009-08-14 04:27:38

+ git clone http://qt.gitorious.org/+kde-developers/qt/kde-qt qt-copy
fatal: http://qt.gitorious.org/+kde-developers … /info/refs not found: did you run git update-server-info on the server?

atomopawn · 2009-08-18 05:06:53

marck: I was finally able to get your kdesupport package to build from git, but I had to comment out all that VLC stuff at the end of the PKGBUILD. Is that stuff important or should I commit my copy?

Is there something else I need to install?

Thanks!
