[request] new fork of Antico (qt4 lightweight DE/WM): Antico light

Anonymo is trying it as seen in this topic: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php … 06#p833706
can someone please help out (I don't have the skills)?

Re: [request] new fork of Antico (qt4 lightweight DE/WM): Antico light

I took Anonymo's PKGBUILD and made a few changes.

I changed the qmake line to be

qmake PREFIX="/usr" VERBOSE=1 || return 1

The PREFIX is needed so it installs into /usr rather than /usr/local

Also where did you get that mediafire url for the source code? It gave me a file with an incorrect md5 sum, the url I get from the qt-apps page is http://w321.wrzuta.pl/sr/f/1UuTzAzdVQ3/antico.tar.bz2

This was also the output from namcap

antico-light E: Dependency detected and not included (gcc-libs) from files ['usr/bin/antico']
antico-light W: Dependency included and not needed ('libdbusmenu-qt')
antico-light W: Dependency included and not needed ('libvorbis')

is there an entry in /usr/share/xsessions/ ?

I had a /usr/share/xsessions file but it didn't show up for kdm, which seems to use /usr/share/apps/kdm/sessions instead. Copying the file into there gave an entry i kdm, but wouldn't start antico. I'll try to play around with it more later on to figure out why it was crashing, but that may not happen until the weekend.

will respond for him, don't know where you both got the links from. lol

This link (Antico light 0.2alfa)
http://qt-apps.org/content/show.php/Ant … ent=128172
gives me this downloadlink:
http://qt-apps.org/content/download.php … n=67268886

your link might be the older and dead original Antico package (which is marked updated???? i'm confused): http://qt-apps.org/content/show.php/Ant … tent=93778

EDIT: btw have you ever seen a lightweight sexy like this, this is awsome once its ready: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jNQOVBQi5jM

Your download link is the html page for the source, putting it in the PKGBUILD won't work. But it does have a link there for the direct download, which is the url I posted.

As far as I tested it, the link I included from Mediafire works.  I uploaded it to mediafire, because sometimes the links go down at kdeapps site and then there's no mirrors so...

Anyways, glad to see someone is working on this... I'll be glad to test it out once it works.  Sorry about my limited skills but I figured if someone does the skeleton of the PKGBUILD, finishing it off is easier.

Below is an updated PKGBUILD that built for me, and shows up in kdm (haven't tested on any other managers) but doesn't seem to start.  I haven't had a chance to look into why though.

#contributor Anonymo <meowdib at gmail dot com>
#contributor mcmillan <awmcmillan at gmail dot com>
pkgname=antico-light
pkgver=0.2

pkgrel=1
arch=('i686' 'x86_64')
pkgdesc="A lightweight Qt based Desktop Enviroment, forked from Antico and similar to LXDE in use"
url="http://qt-apps.org/content/show.php/Antico+Light+%28+qt+desktop+environment+%29?content=128172"
license=('GPL')
depends=('qt>=4.4')
makedepends=('make' 'pkgconfig' 'cmake')
source=("http://w321.wrzuta.pl/sr/f/1UuTzAzdVQ3/antico.tar.bz2")
md5sums=('190b0681b33163a143b63b2abe990b85')
install=${pkgname}.install

build() {
  cd $srcdir/antico
  qmake PREFIX="/usr" VERBOSE=1 || return 1
  make || return 1
  make install INSTALL_ROOT=$pkgdir || return 1

  #very hackish way to get kdm to recognize, if a better way exists change 
  if [ -f /usr/bin/kdm ]; then
      kdm_dir=usr/share/apps/kdm/sessions
      mkdir -p $pkgdir/$kdm_dir/
      ln -s /usr/share/xsessions/antico-kdm.desktop $pkgdir/$kdm_dir/antico-kdm.desktop
  fi
}

The notice for how things start makes more sense as an install script, though probably is unnecessary since it's pretty basic info. Make a seperate file called antico-light.install with this info.  If any post-install, post-upgrade, or post removal info makes sense it should probably go here.

post_install() { 
    echo "To run the window manager:"
    echo "from KDM/GMD, select 'Antico' from WM list"
    echo "from shell, type: 'xinit /path/to/antico/bin"
}

edited to fix error

can you correct that? there is a syntax-error

Re: [request] new fork of Antico (qt4 lightweight DE/WM): Antico light

Looks like I missed a closing bracket when copying. I also noticed it gave an error if the directory for kdm link didn't exist in the pkgdir, (must have created it while testing things before) so I fixed that too.

I haven't done anything else with this. It's a pretty low priority for me and nothing obvious jumped out from log files. Let me know if anybody else can figure out why it's not starting.
