Building kdebindings
by Darrell Anderson 25 Aug '10

25 Aug '10

I'm continuing to test building other packages. Please take your time responding. I'm just testing and forwarding information in the hope that when these builds fail there might be common causes. kdebindings failed to build. Looks like python issues. I also notice libtool warnings. I'm sending an attachment of the build output. Darrell

Building kdebase
by Darrell Anderson 25 Aug '10

25 Aug '10

I decided to see how other packages might compile. Next in the build chain is kdebase. That build effort failed quickly. I'm attaching the output of the build. Curious error message: configure: WARNING: linux/cdrom.h: present but cannot be compiled Is this a problem with my kernel version (2.6.27.48-smp) or kernel configuration? I can recompile the kernel if necessary? I do not have the Trinity version of kdelibs or arts installed. I don't know whether that is important. I'm building with a stock 3.5.10 installed. Darrell

Re: [trinity-devel] Building From SVN

I'm attaching a text file of the build output. Regarding avahi, I just built and installed the avahi 0.6.25 package. Not the latest version, but all I can install because I have an older GTK2 package. I saw no error messages when trying to build kdelibs with avahi installed. Thus, my concern about Debian-specific package names was unfounded. I notice in the avahi package contents the files your build system seeks are include files, which would be the same on any system. I installed avahi only to test the build process. I don't think avahi should be a prerequisite and the stock Slackware does not provide that package. Anyway, good news that the build works with or without avahi. I hope the attached file helps. Suspect messages I notice in the config process: lua.h was not found or was not usable, Lua 5.0 headers are required ! ... configure: WARNING: Could not find krb5-config ... configure: creating ./config.status wrong input (flag != 4) at admin/conf.change.pl line 117, <> line 1998. ... config.status: creating kdecore/kde-config.cpp config.status: WARNING: 'kdecore/kde-config.cpp.in' seems to ignore the --datarootdir setting D.

qt-3.3.8b and libpng 1.4

I understand there is a bug with qt-3.3.8b and libpng 1.4. Does trinity include a related patch for qt? Darrell

Here you go: 1) Build script is tqtinterface.SlackBuild 2) KDE.options, which is sourced in the build script 3) stdout of build process I am not building directly within the svn tree. I copy the tqtinterface directory to a build location.

Building KDE 3.5.x For Slackware
by Darrell Anderson 23 Aug '10

23 Aug '10

Greetings, I hope this first message gets through. I am going to try creating build scripts for KDE 3.5.x for Slackware. I am stepping into something over my head as I am not a developer and have no skills in c++. I'll need lots of hand-holding from other developers. :) In other words, please do not assume when explaining. I'll learn but need good explanations. I have the svn tree duplicated locally. I am trying to build kdelibs. In my build script I check that the following packages are installed: cups qt-3.3 dbus-qt3 qca-1 qca-tls poppler pcre libxml2 libxslt arts I have qt-3.3.8b and arts 1.5.10 installed. I have not rebuilt arts through svn. I'm just trying to get the kinks out of this process right now and will built that package some other day. I have the build script creating the makefiles as suggested at the wiki: cp -Rp /usr/lib/build/libtool.m4 file> admin/libtool.m4.in cp -Rp /usr/lib/build/ltmain.sh file> admin/ltmain.sh make -f admin/Makefile.common I saw no errors with that section of the build script. First errors I notice when building kdelibs are when running config: checking if TQt is available... no configure: WARNING: You are attempting to compile Trinity without the Trinity Qt Interface installed. Please install libtqtinterface-dev and try again! Seems like two errors there. I have tqtinterface installed in the svn dependencies directory. Slackware does not split sources into user and developers packages like Debian. As I am building these packages on a system with KDE 3.5.10 installed, I likely have the qt developer files installed. This is the way packages are built for Slackware. Another error I noticed in the config process: lua.h was not found or was not usable, Lua 5.0 headers are required ! The stock Slackware does not ship with lua installed. Thereafter the kdelibs build fails early in the process with the following messages: mv -f .deps/accept.Tpo .deps/accept.Plo mv: cannot stat `.deps/accept.Tpo': No such file or directory make[4]: *** [accept.lo] Error 1 make[4]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs.... mv -f .deps/authutil.Tpo .deps/authutil.Plo mv -f .deps/connect.Tpo .deps/connect.Plo mv: cannot stat `.deps/authutil.Tpo': No such file or directory mv: cannot stat `.deps/connect.Tpo': No such file or directory make[4]: *** [authutil.lo] Error 1 make[4]: *** [connect.lo] Error 1 make[4]: Leaving directory `/dev/shm/kdelibs/dcop/KDE-ICE' make[3]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[3]: Leaving directory `/dev/shm/kdelibs/dcop' make[2]: *** [all] Error 2 make[2]: Leaving directory `/dev/shm/kdelibs/dcop' make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/dev/shm/kdelibs' make: *** [all] Error 2 I do not build in the svn directory. I copied the kdelibs and dependencies source files to a temporary location. Perhaps that is why these errors happen. I'm guessing there might be a path problem. I hope I provided sufficient information. Darrell

Re: xz/lzma support in ark

There are four new mimetype files that need to be installed to the system, and probably added to your local copy of kdelibs/mimetypes/application/Makefile.in as well. They are: kdelibs/mimetypes/application/x-lzma.desktop kdelibs/mimetypes/application/x-tlz.desktop kdelibs/mimetypes/application/x-txz.desktop kdelibs/mimetypes/application/x-xz.desktop > > Are the new packages supposed to add those extensions automatically?
