Hi,
I have below issue after updating to latest git and I was wondering how I
can fix it. On the machine I build, I do not have GUI and dcop. In fact it
is a chrooted environment.
For now I disable the debian check target in the debian/rules file.
Thank you in advance

How can I get /etc/X11/wmsession.d/45TDE in Mageia 7b2 (urpmi upgraded from Mageia
6) to run my xrandr script as it starts? other distros call it from various
places, but I can't find a place that works in Mageia 7. :~(
TDM isn't working either, so I'm starting TDE with
startx /opt/trinity/bin/starttde
instead. Do I need something in /etc/alternatives to get TDM to work? If so, what?
If not, then what?
I'm only trying to follow up on a bug:

Hi,
sorry to bother you again, but I do not know why I get this. I mean I
understand why as shown below, but I do not understand where it is coming.
This goes beyond my level of knowledge of cmake. Is it required to log a bug
and how exactly - the trivial way would be in Gitea under tdemultimedia. Is
this correct?
dh_install: Cannot find (any matches
for) "debian/tmp/opt/trinity/lib/libarts_mpeglib.so" (tried in "."
and "debian/tmp")
dh_install: tdemultimedia-trinity-dev missing files:

dh_install: missing files, aborting

thanks in advance
Hi,
please have someone here any contact information on François which are
functional? During preparation of R14.0.6 we need feedback if everything
is OK on RPM distributions. But the contact information that I have is
not working.
Cheers

Hi all,
those of you who have been here for a long time might recall that when I
joined the community I assumed that my tasks would be only two: backport
patches to the stable TDE series and work on translation. Over time, it
turned out that my tasks on the project would be bigger. However, work
on translations is still a postponed task.
Recently, I have devoted some time to the tasks that are essential to move
us forward with the work on translations. Therefore, I would like to
inform you about the results and related plans.
I apologize for long email.
1. Unnecessary updates of POT files during package build
I observed that during the DEB packages build, an attempt was made to
update POT files. However, this step makes no sense. Bundling usually
takes place in dedicated pure chroot. Therefore, the result of updating
POT files would be discarded anyway. So this is unnecessary work.
At the same time, the extractrc tool is used during the POT files update.
But this tool is part of the tdesdk-scripts-trinity package. Therefore,
when building other packages, it is usually not present. So updating POT
files during building could not work well.
That's why I already removed these unnecessary updates of POT files while
building DEB packages.
2. Do we still need to use the old modified version of xgettext?
I found out what the current status is and whether there are still reasons
to use the old modified version of xgettext (kde-xgettext). Patches for
the old version solve two things:
a) adding a way to enter plural forms of strings
b) adding a way to enter translation context
The current versions of gexttext already have both of these options, but
they seem to be implemented in a different way. Before we can start using
standard xgettext in TDE, we will need to add support for a new way of
plural forms of strings and translation contexts.
So far, we need to continue using an old modified version of kde-xgettext.
3. Can modern gettext replace the extractrc tool?
Modern versions of gettext can handle XML files. We use XML files
for 'kcfg', 'rc' and 'ui'. Using ITS support in gettext, there is a way
to define which texts are to be extracted for translations. I tested this
option, but I encountered some problems:
a) Tags are written in strings as html entities: < / > / &.
After extraction using xgettext, are left in this form. But the extractrc
tool convert them to the appropriate characters '<', '>', '&'. I did not
find a way to do this with xgettext and ITS.
b) XPath is used to determine which strings are to be extracted from XML
files. Files 'kcfg' use their own XML namespace and I did not find a way
how to enter XPath to work properly with ITS in xgettext.
That's why I decided it was better to continue using the extractrc tool.
4. How do we create and update POT files?
In order to provide strings for translation, we first need to create and
update POT files. The best place for these files is right in the source
code – in GIT. Therefore, these files need to be maintained independently
of the building binaries. Therefore, it is obvious that for this task it
is not a good time during the build binary packages, nor the usual use of
Automake or CMake.
Although the usual use of CMake with CMakeLists.txt for updating POT files
is not a good choice, using CMake as such seems to be a good idea. CMake
allows using the -P option to process a different file than the usual
CMakeLists.txt. In this case, it does not create build folder, it does
not create a cache - exactly as it suits us for our purpose.
I decided to use the name CMakeL10n.txt. I have prepared the CMake module
TDEL10n.cmake. This module provides functions for simplifing directories
handling – function tde_add_l10n_subdirectory as the equivalent for
add_subdirectory and function tde_auto_add_l10n_subdirectories as an
equivalent for tde_auto_add_subdirectories. And above all, the
tde_create_l10n_template macro that provides POT files generation.
This macro provides some benefits that seemed useful:
a) If resource files are processed – for example, *.ui, the work
file "rc.cpp" is commonly used to save extracted strings for translation.
This file is then processed by kde-xgettext. Links to the original
location of strings in the resulting POT file then refer to
this "rc.cpp", which is not very useful.
The tde_create_l10n_template macro performs additional processing by
replacing references to "rc.cpp" with references to the original resource
files. Therefore, the POT file does not refer to a non-existent "rc.cpp"
file, but to real locations in resource files.
b) When a new POT file is generated, a comparison is made with the
original POT file. If only the date of POT file generation is changed,
the original POT file will be left unchanged.
This prevents unnecessary POT file updates. This will allow to run a
regular update of POT files without causing unnecessary commits.
5. What's next?
For revisions and comments, I created a pull request containing a CMake
module TDEL10n.cmake:
https://mirror.git.trinitydesktop.org/gitea/TDE/tde-common-cmake/pulls/2
...and pull requests with a demonstration of use CMakeL10n in two modules:
https://mirror.git.trinitydesktop.org/gitea/TDE/abakus/pulls/1https://mirror.git.trinitydesktop.org/gitea/TDE/tdebase/pulls/19
After testing, we will need to add CMakeL10n.txt to generate POT files in
all other modules. Once we have automated updating of POT files,
translation work can begin!
6. How can users work on translations?
I will leave the answer to this question for later. Whoever was more
attentive could have noticed in several earlier commits that "something
is being prepared" :)
Cheers
