I notice the developer's wiki has been updated and mentions that qt3 should be build with Trinity sources rather than built from distro sources.
I am building qt3 from the original 3.3.8b sources and applying my own patches. That approach worked okay last spring.
I presume any patches applied in the past no longer are needed because they are included in the Trinity sources.
Problem is I don't see a tarball for the Trinity sources. I don't know how to use git.
I would appreciate somebody updating the wiki to provide some guidance. :) Or provide sufficient details here, which later can be added to the wiki.
Thanks.

you definitely need to use the version from git. you are right that we need to make some notes in the wiki about it as well.
What you need to do is "clone" the tde repository:
git clone http://scm.trinitydesktop.org/scm/git/tde
that should be all. from there the building is pretty simple. qt3 is in main/dependencies/qt3
If you want to add a note to the Wiki on the how to build page, that would be great :)

I appreciate the response but suddenly I'm knee deep.
Everything becomes "simple" with experience and knowledge. :) I have neither with building qt3 from these new sources.
To where do I save this git repository? Currently I have a segregated build directory where I store Trinity SVN.
If I run the git clone command, how much am I downloading? MBs? GBs?
Am I supposed to be building all packages from git or only qt3?
I would update the wiki (and have several times in the past), but I haven't a clue about what I am doing. This all might be old news to those of you who have been doing this for the several months, but I am clueless about what is happening here. :)
Thanks.

The size of my local clone of the repo is 153M.

The other packages can be found on websvn.kde.org, but there seem to be plans to migrate everything to git.

If you're not familiar to git, the following commands will probably help you: $ git pull Updates the local repository and merges the upstream modifications with the local ones (similar to svn up). $ git diff Computes the patch between the files in your local repo and the ones in your filesystem (similar to svn diff). The fundamental difference between git and svn is that with git, if you clone for example the Trinity git repo, your local clone will be the same kind of repo that the upstream one, and you can (for example) commit to it.
Thanks.

Since you are using Slackware 13.1, you will have either: -to apply the patch that makes Qt3 libpng14-compatible (I used the attached one) or -to make the Qt3 build system use the Slackware-provided libpng12 instead of the default libpng14 (the Trolltech-provided libpng-1.2.5 is full of security holes, and is deactivated by a patch of mine that went upstream…); a long time ago I tried this with Trolltech 3.3.8b and Slackware 13.1 and didn't succeed.

I am using a libpng 1.4 patch to build qt3. Not the same as yours and I have updated to use yours.
Are you building qt3 from the original tarball sources or from Trinity git?

I'd be grateful if you would share your qt3 build script for Slackware/git.

Thanks.

Trinity can only be built against the Qt3 sources in our GIT tree (or in the forthcoming release tarballs on Nv. 1st) due to a number of enhancements made to Qt3 that Trinity now relies upon.
You can actually download a tarball of the Qt3 sources in GIT if you follow the link on the Wiki (where it mentions our GIT tree) and scroll down to the bottom of the next page. You should see a link on the bottom to download a .tar.gz file.

I'd like to wait until a day or two before the release date in case any problems crop up that need to be patched when people start building Trinity on other distributions. Can you build from SVN (check it out and strip out the .svn/ folders)?

I already sent it within my tarball… sending it again. The qt-x11.diff.gz and qt.mysql.h.diff.gz referenced by the script are the ones from the Slackware sources.
