Proposed Wiki Changes
by Darrell Anderson 20 May '24

20 May '24

Please comment, clarify, or improve. Thanks. https://wiki.trinitydesktop.org/How_to_Build_TDE_Core_Modules#About_TQt and https://wiki.trinitydesktop.org/How_to_Build_TDE_Core_Modules#Configure_and… ADD: ==== Although c++11 (and c++17) are supported in TDE, users compiling automake packages for systems with older versions of gcc might require explicitly declaring compatibility with '-std=c++11'. ============ https://wiki.trinitydesktop.org/How_to_Build_TDE_Core_Modules#Other_Require… ADD: ==== Many TDE packages add features based on installing additional distro packages. For many people this approach is encouraged for a more robust desktop environment, but a good starting point is with a clean stock distro install and add supporting packages as needed. To avoid potential conflicts, compiling TDE probably is best done in an environment that does not contain any KDE related packages. ============ https://wiki.trinitydesktop.org/How_to_Build_TDE_Core_Modules#Coexisting_wi… and https://wiki.trinitydesktop.org/Tips_And_Tricks#Look_and_feel ADD: ==== Some stand-alone Qt5 software (not necessarily KDE software) might not render toolbars, fonts, and colors correctly within TDE. Some users have found that installing the 'qt5ct' package helps improve the appearance of Qt5 software. While the qt5ct environment variable QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME can be exported globally to all users system-wide, a more suitable place to export the variable is $TDEHOME/env/qt5ct.sh. This limits the effects of qt5ct to each user and allows each user to customize the desired Qt5 features as desired. ============ https://wiki.trinitydesktop.org/How_to_Build_TDE_Core_Modules#Build_Times DELETE the section.

error: 'nullptr' was not declared in this scope
by Darrell Anderson 20 May '24

20 May '24

I'm trying to build R14.1.2 on some vintage systems. The build log for tqt3 is filled with this error. I searched the web and not being a programmer, do not fully understand what is required for remedy. The error seems to have something to do with c++11. R14.0.12 built fine on these vintage systems. I am presuming something has since changed. One system has gcc 5.5.0. I accept this might be the end of the road for TDE on some vintage systems. That's fine, but please, no street preaching about unsupported systems. I'm trying to understand the error. Thanks.

I'm building R14.1.2 on some older systems. R14.0.12 compiled fine on these systems. I am hoping the trick is back porting a patch or two. On a Slackware 14.2 64-bit system the build fails as so: [ 37%] Generating tdespell-en-handbook cd /tmp/build/tmp-tdelibs/tdelibs-trinity-14.1.2/build-tdelibs/doc/tdespell && /tmp/build/tmp-tdelibs/tdelibs-trinity-14.1.2/build-tdelibs/kdoctools/meinproc --srcdir=/tmp/build/tmp-tdelibs/tdelibs-trinity-14.1.2/build-tdelibs/ksgmltools2 --check --cache index.cache.bz2 /tmp/build/tmp-tdelibs/tdelibs-trinity-14.1.2/doc/tdespell/index.docbook /bin/sh: line 1: 22600 Bus error /tmp/build/tmp-tdelibs/tdelibs-trinity-14.1.2/build-tdelibs/kdoctools/meinproc --srcdir=/tmp/build/tmp-tdelibs/tdelibs-trinity-14.1.2/build-tdelibs/ksgmltools2 --check --cache index.cache.bz2 /tmp/build/tmp-tdelibs/tdelibs-trinity-14.1.2/doc/tdespell/index.docbook doc/tdespell/CMakeFiles/tdespell-en-handbook.dir/build.make:60: recipe for target 'doc/tdespell/index.cache.bz2' failed make[2]: *** [doc/tdespell/index.cache.bz2] Error 135 make[2]: Leaving directory '/tmp/build/tmp-tdelibs/tdelibs-trinity-14.1.2/build-tdelibs' CMakeFiles/Makefile2:10862: recipe for target 'doc/tdespell/CMakeFiles/tdespell-en-handbook.dir/all' failed make[1]: *** [doc/tdespell/CMakeFiles/tdespell-en-handbook.dir/all] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory '/tmp/build/tmp-tdelibs/tdelibs-trinity-14.1.2/build-tdelibs' Makefile:138: recipe for target 'all' failed make: *** [all] Error 2 What do I look for? Side note: Before any pedantic Horshacks pipe in, Slackware 14.2 was declared EOL Dec 2023. Thanks.

Build requirements
by Darrell Anderson 20 May '24

20 May '24

Where in the wiki are the expected build environment requirements listed (and not out of date)? I'm am trying to build TDE 14.1.2 on Slackware 15.0 32-bit. Fails to build because of a "Value too large for defined data type" error. This seems to be a specific 32-bit error. I have not read anything that 32-bit no longer is supported in TDE. I'm trying to build 14.1.2 on some vintage 32-bit systems. The tqt3 build fails with many errors and fatal errors. Cmake version 3.5.2 is installed but tqt3 does not use cmake. While vintage systems are EOL, R14.0.12 built fine on these systems. So something else has changed or was introduced since them. Thanks.
