Downgrading autoconf/automake
by Darrell Anderson 14 Mar '11

14 Mar '11

What caveats should I know with downgrading autoconf/automake? The port to cmake is a wise long-term strategy but will take time. While svn remains in a mixed autotools and cmake environment, both sets of build tools are needed during the transition. As I am already two releases behind, I was thinking about moving to the next release of Slackware, which is now in RC status. That move also will allow me to test Trinity in an environment with KDE4 installed. That upcoming Slackware release comes with autoconf-2.68 and automake-1.11.1. As explained to me, I cannot build KDE 3.5.10 or Trinity with that version of those tools. I was thinking about updating to the new Slackware release and then temporarily downgrading to autoconf-2.63 and automake-1.10.1 so I can build and help test Trinity during the long-term port to cmake. I presume that if I want to build third-party packages for the new Slackware release, I might have to toggle to autoconf-2.68 and automake-1.11.1 to ensure no compatibility problems. Perhaps I need only downgrade autoconf and not automake. I have no clue if that is possible too. Will this work? Darrell

kdebase missing cmake for kioslave
by Timothy Pearson 14 Mar '11

14 Mar '11

Hi Serghei, In kdebase, kdebase/kioslave/media/propsdlgplugin does not have a CMake control file. Could you create one? This is currently holding up Debian/Ubuntu builds of kdebase. Thanks! Tim

kpowersave on x86_64 - pkg_search_module( XSCRNSAVER xscrnsaver ) fails??
by David C. Rankin 13 Mar '11

13 Mar '11

Guys, I can't explain this one. On i686, kpowersave built fine, but on x86_64, the build fails due to: CMake Error at cmake/modules/TDEMacros.cmake:20 (message): ################################################# xscrnsaver are required, but not found on your system ################################################# Call Stack (most recent call first): ConfigureChecks.cmake:42 (tde_message_fatal) CMakeLists.txt:40 (include) -- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred! In ConfigureChecks.cmake, we have: # check for xscrnsaver pkg_search_module( XSCRNSAVER xscrnsaver ) if( NOT XSCRNSAVER_FOUND ) tde_message_fatal( "xscrnsaver are required, but not found on your system" ) endif() On Arch the package is actually xscreensaver. On both i686 and x86_64 boxes, I have 'xscreensaver 5.12-2' installed, but for some reason, this works on i686. Dunno why... Where can I look at the actual code for "pkg_search_module()" so I can tell exactly what it is looking for? It almost seems like I've run into this before, but can't recall for the life of me what I did to address it? There must be some other package on the box that works that provides the dependency that kpowersave is looking for, but how do I figure that out? What say the experts? -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

We install them with regular packages, since arch users almost always are compiling, developing etc we just include them. While it takes more space it saves alot of work.

Hi Serghei, Can you take a look at this please? https://quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/~trinity/+archive/trinity-nightly-b… It seems that even though I passed -DWITH_SAMBA to cmake the samba .la file was not built or installed. Thanks! Tim

Constructor Problem - kpowersave src/inactivity.cpp

Tim, Serghei, I found another constructor problem in kpowersave. Here is a patch: --- kpowersave/src/inactivity.cpp +++ kpowersave/src/inactivity.cpp 2011-03-12 18:40:52.000000000 -0600 @@ -325,7 +325,7 @@ blacklisted_running = false; } else { - if (pids.contains(QRegExp::QRegExp("[0-9]"))) { + if (pids.contains(QRegExp("[0-9]"))) { kdDebug() << "BLACKLISTED IS RUNNING" << endl; blacklisted_running = true; blacklisted_running_last = idleTime; Builds fine afterwards: trinity-app-kpowersave-1215405-1-i686.pkg.tar.xz -- David C.

kdelibs doc common build problem
by Timothy Pearson 12 Mar '11

12 Mar '11

Serghei, I almost have kdelibs built, but from what I can tell the common/ symbolic link in the documentation directories is not being created. As one example, a symbolic link would normally be present in /opt/trinity/share/doc/kde/HTML/en/kspell/common, pointing to the /opt/trinity/share/doc/kde/HTML/en/common directory. This is so that the KHTML-based documentation renderer can find the needed graphics and style files. I would try to fix this myself, but I lack the requisite CMake knowledge to do it correctly. Thanks! Tim

QSettings: errors/ KDM problem
by Baho Utot 12 Mar '11

12 Mar '11

I am currently packaging TDE for use on Arch Linux I am getting the following errors in kdelibs QSettings: error creating /.qt QSettings: error creating /.qt QSettings: error creating /.qt QSettings: error creating /.qt QSettings: error creating /.qt QSettings::sync: filename is null/empty QSettings: error creating /.qt QSettings::sync: filename is null/empty QSettings: error creating /.qt QSettings::sync: filename is null/empty Anyone know what causes these and are they benign? I have built the svn source to kdevelop and the resulting binaries produce a system that generally works. I have installed TDE based on the svn source and it mostly works. I am using TDE svn as the primary desktop on my laptop. I have a problem with kdm - it runs but you can not login to a valid user. It tries to run the desktop then goes back to the login. If anyone has any pointers on how to fix it I am all ears. The only thing on my wish list to get ported is Ark, K3b and kpdf. Thanks for all your effort I am looking forward to the completed TDE, I know it will be a lot of effort. I would help in the port but I don't know cmake and by the time I would get up to speed you guys would be done ;)
