I started a new build of tde tonight from scratch.
I
grabbed the output of the build failure in tdelibs due to komp-pid.diff. (I know it is
experimental -- I was experimenting :) It is another "error: cannot convert
'TQString' to 'const char*' in assignment" in
tdelibs/tdecore/kapplication.cp:
The goal of the komp*.diff patches are to hide the xsession pid message when komp is not
in use. Refer to bug reports 645, 880, 887. I have not toyed with them for a few weeks and
have them disabled in my builds.
So far the build is progressing with all other
patches:
patch -Np0 -i ${pkgname#*-}-XDG-KDE-TDE.diff
## patch kde help dir
patch -Np0 -i ${pkgname#*-}-helpdir.diff
Regarding those two patches, today I finally got around to creating similar patches for
every single module. The first patch is related to bug report 892 and the latter is
related to bug report 660, which we discussed several days ago. I hope in the next day or
three to push all of those patches. I will provide list memebers a warning before I do
that.
## patch KDE4-detect
patch -Np0 -i ${pkgname#*-}-KDE4-detect.diff
This patch is related to bug report 891.
## patch kdetcompmgr
patch -Np0 -i ${pkgname#*-}-kdetcompmgr.diff
Related to bug report 645.
## patch recentdocs
patch -Np0 -i ${pkgname#*-}-recentdocs.diff
Related to bug report 914.
## patch kdirwatch
patch -Np0 -i ${pkgname#*-}-kdirwatch.diff
I'll report back on the kdirwatch patch improvements once
the build is done.
Related to bug report 756.
If only I knew C++ better. I get frustrated when I know what I want to do and can't
get there because of noob C++ skills. All of these efforts would be completed by any
person with C++ skills.
