In an effort
to resolve bug report 817 I converted qca
to tqca. That small package never got
converted to Trinity
TQt.
One stumbling block. I am unable to figure out how to
force the configure script
to add /usr/include/tqt to the -I
include list. If I could get past that then I suspect any
remaining build problems will be superficial. The build log
output is clear that the problem is not finding the tqt
headers.
Hello, in file "qca.pro", add the following line :
INCLUDEPATH += /usr/include/tqt
just below the existing(s) "INCLUDEPATH" ...
Thank you much Francois! With that help I was able to finish the migration. I now can
offer the team a tqca package. :)
Yet based upon your statement about your patch, has my time been wasted?
BTW, I've made a patch to allow tqca-tls building
with TQT3
(instead of QT3). It does not require any 'tqca' package. The patch is here:
http://git.trinitydesktop.org/cgit/tde-packaging/tree/redhat/dependencies/t…
I don't pretend to understand the relationship of the original qca and qca-tls
package, what other packages depended upon those two packages, or why qca never was
converted to tqca. There are no change logs or records of these decisions. Perhaps
converting qca was overlooked, or, is not needed. I am willing to update the wiki if only
I knew what was going on and what to write. The lack of active participation in this list
of late tends to leave one feeling like a mushroom --- in the dark.
I encourage you (and all others packagers) to browse
the GIT
repository 'tde-packaging', but in others distros
directories, especially Ubuntu, which I consider being the
reference distro (because it is maintained by Tim).
When I get a build failure, I go there, and 99% of the time,
I find the solution.
I am familiar with Tim's build scripts and I visit them often too. Although lately, I
would not say I have a 99% success rate. Seems several build failures have slipped back
into the fold with nobody offering solutions or help.
Thanks much for helping with such a simple fix!
Should the team want a tqca package I have the sources and basic build script ready to
go.
