FYI
I don't know which team first found and assembled all of these KDE patches. The base patch sets seem to be identical for both teams. The chakra collection provides patches for common third-party KDE apps.
Here are links to the collection of patches:
http://www.chakra-project.org/svn/branches/kde3/
http://vectorlinux.osuosl.org/veclinux-6.0/source/extra/kde/3.5.10/
There are many useful patches available in this collection.
I randomly compared some of the patches to the trinity svn source code. Of those few I compared, seems the patch had not been implemented.
A lot of the patches are already in Trinity; in fact with a couple of exceptions I only started to see significant unpatched files in kdebase.
I will see how far I get with incorporating those patches before the 3.5.12 feature freeze...thanks for letting me know about them!
These collections are small gold mines.
Yes they are. ;-)
The dates in some of the diff files indicate the patches have been available a long time. For whatever reason they never were merged into the KDE source code.
Remember "KDE3 is dead, no more feature patches will be accepted"? That was occurring for a long time before KDE4 actually came out.
This post serves only as a helpful place holder to find those patches at some future date.
By the way, I think I *might* have fixed your kdebase build problem. Can you update kdebase to SVN revision 1172412 or higher and try building kdebase again?
Thanks!
