> And you have cookies and javascript enabled? Nope. I somewhat understand cookies, but JS? The bane of the internet? I hate JS. I have a slow enough internet connection as is. And I never have trusted JS. At all. Yes, I use NoScript. I still hate JS. Seems to work with those enabled, but I discovered I have little patience at the moment. I tried to paste text and the formatting is incorrect. I'm irritated I have to use JS and my internet connection has been horrible the past few weeks. Not to mention the 8 hours every day required to build these packages. I'll try later. I'm not in a good mood all of a sudden. In the mean time I'm attaching a text file to modify the bottom of the developer's page.

koffice patch
by Darrell Anderson 25 Sep '10

25 Sep '10

This patch is in the Slackware koffice 1.6.3 build set. I don't know what the patch provides. http://slackware.mirrors.tds.net/pub/slackware/slackware-12.2/source/kde/ko… The date of the patch is Aug 28, 2008, which is about when 3.5.10 was released, but about a year after koffice 1.6.3 was released. Possibly yet another patch the KDE developers refused to merge. Darrell

Release documentation
by Timothy Pearson 25 Sep '10

Darrell, I haven't forgotten about your offer to help with the release notes / what's new document. I think the Wiki is a perfect medium for us to collaborate and get a professional quality document together; thoughts? I have put up a preliminary page here: http://trinity.pearsoncomputing.net/wiki/bin/view/Documentation/Releases_3_… What I can do is pick through the SVN commit logs and add a list of what is new from 3.5.11 to that Wiki page. Then maybe you could go through each item and write a short description of what is new about the feature, and throw up a screenshot or two highlighting how to use / access the feature. Would this work for you? Do you have a different (better) idea of how to create the release notes? Thanks! Tim

I downloaded 3.16.7 and tried compiling that rather than from SVN. Same results. Same stall point. Top showed the cc1plus compiler hogging 99% CPU time and 8% memory. This time I waited about 15 minutes and then the build continued. Possibly then the svn version is okay too. After continuing to compile --- for only a second --- there was another long stall. The pause was with the kdeui directory. According to the build instructions (http://www.riverbankcomputing.co.uk/static/Docs/PyKDE3/install.html), compiling should take 15 minutes to one hour. I waited an hour. Nothing. I decided to force non-concatenation with the -i switch. At least the -i switch is verbose and I could see things happening. That mode also was easier on the CPU. The package failed to build, but I knew right away. More than likely the concatenated version failed too and there was no message. SIP 4.11.1 and PyQT3 3.18.1 compiled fine. Log attached. According to the failure error, kinputidalog.h has an undeclared class QValidator. kinputidalog.h is installed from kdelibs.

krun.cpp:977: error: 'KStringHandler' has not been declared Does krun.cpp need an include statement to kstringhandler.h? I notice a similar recent patch with konq_mainwindow.cc using KStringHandler. I'll guess that one will fail to compile too without the same patch? I'm curious how these SVN changes pass muster for Debian and not Slackware. Same basic tool chain. Do your Debian build scripts contain "make || exit 1" as a mechanism to force the make process to terminate? That is what I use to force the build process to terminate. Darrell

How do those files work? Do they have to recompiled against Trinity core packages or can pre-built packages be used, such as those already available in Lenny or Slackware 12.2? Darrell

[systemtray] Clearing area to set background
by Darrell Anderson 23 Sep '10

23 Sep '10

I'm seeing a whole bunch of these messages now. The [systemtray] tells me you added the messages, but the messages don't tell me much. What area is being cleared and why do users need to know? Darrell
