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 :)

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

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

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.

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.

when will these tarballs be available? I'd like to get my build

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)?
