Is there anything we can do to supplement that kind of approach? I'm no valgrind expert at all. Just curious whether we can help Trinity with valgrind. Darrell

Automated qt3->tqt3 updates
by Darrell Anderson 15 Aug '13

15 Aug '13

I see some qt3 updates in the commit list web page for bug report 1350. I am able to pull those changes. I am not seeing any changes in tqt3 to pull. Is the automated tqt3 script functioning? Darrell

Valgrind
by Darrell Anderson 15 Aug '13

15 Aug '13

I read an article today abut using Valgrind to test software code. Do we perform any such tests for Trinity? If not then how could we start such a program? Darrell

>I've attached it. If I'm reading it correctly, once it's applied, >you pass --without-avahi to disable the relevant code. I updated the patch for the tqt framework. I tested with avahi/avahi-tqt installed and not installed. Looks great. I'll push to git. Note to all: the defaults remain the same. As mentioned, --disable- avahi must be explicitly defined in the configuration. Otherwise nothing changes --- even the configuration warnings remain the same when avahi is not found and will not be compiled. Thanks! Darrell

I just did not understand the question. If you mean, did I remember to update the CMakeLists.txt files, yes. :- ) As I mentioned, everything built without error, everything installed to $PREFIX/share/apps/tdestyle, and there is no remnant $PREFIX/share/apps/kstyle after updating the packages. Typically though I tend to forget to run 'git add --all' before creating the commit message. I know better --- but there isn't a sufficiently hefty 2x4 here to sometimes remind me. :-) Darrell

A typo in my diff command resulted in the large diff. The final patch is now MUCH smaller and sane. :-) >I don't feel that I'm one of core testers, but why not to push >them into >their own branch and let somebody test it? >IMO It's easier than mess with patch-sets and no mob of angry >developers or >testers will not want to broke your legs ;) Branch? Um, nope, ain't going down that road. :-) Git hates me and I hate git. I'm reasonably confident the patch set can be pushed to git as is because I'm seeing no problems here. I asked the question of posting patches for testing in case others don't feel confident, which I'm fine with. >btw: haven't forgot to rename cmake variables? e.g. in >tdeartwork... Is that a question? To me? Darrell

The final list is short: tdelibs tdebase tdeartwork tdesdk tde-style-lipstik tde-style-qtcurve koffice tde-i18n I had no build errors. A superficial test of selecting the styles in kcontrol resulted in no errors or problems. Caveat: The tde-i18n patch is huge. So huge that I will not even try to post the patch or try to push to git until I reduce to smaller patches and push piece-meal one at a time. That said, how do we want to proceed next? I can post the patches online and somebody else could test. Or I could just push to git and listen for screams of pain and anguish. No problems noticed here, but I'm only one person with my own perspective. Darrell

Any chance you could find the patch? I should be able to massage into our tqt3/renaming framework. I realize there is no harm, but I like clean builds and a tad of "spit polish." :-) Darrell

ktorrent and avahi
by Darrell Anderson 13 Aug '13

13 Aug '13

All, Does ktorrent depend upon avahi? I don't have avahi or avahi-tqt installed. In the ktorrent build log I always see the following: checking for avahi-client >= 0.6.10... checking for avahi-tqt >= 0.6.10... checking if apps should be compiled... yes ... KTorrent WARNING: Cannot find avahi-client with version 0.6.10 or later or cannot find avahi-tqt. The zeroconf plugin will not be installed because of this. Should there be a configuration option to explicitly exclude using avahi? Darrell
