Hello,
I tried to build kontact-trinity on Debian Bullseye with the sources I
got from the Trinity repos.
At first I used "apt source kontact-trinity" to get the sources. Then
I ran "apt build-dep kontact-trinity" to get the dependencies. The
next step was to run debuild (from the devscripts package).
Finally, I tried to install all the deb-packages. For most packages
that was no problem, but I couldn't install tdepim-trinity-dgb,
tdepim, kmail, kmailcvt, korn, and kontact (I don't write the whole
package name, but they look like
kontact-trinity_14.0.11-0debian11.0.0+0_amd64.deb) because
dependencies are missing. The messages look like this one: "[...]dpkg:
dependency problems prevent configuration of kontact-trinity:
kontact.trinity depends on kmail-trinity; however: Package
kmail-trinity is not configured yet. dpkg: error processing package
kontact-trinity [...]".
I expected that I would be able to install all packages because apt
source and apt build-dep should get all packages I need to install
kontact-trinity.
Can you help me with this problem?
I found out that some runtime-dependencies were missing which I could
install with "apt --fix-broken install".
It's good to hear that you successfully resolved it.
KMail arises from the tdepim package as well as Kontact, so all the
necessary libraries should be installed. But dependencies such as
gpg-agent and pinentry-tqt are not needed at build-time but afterwards at
run-time. Therefore, there was a need to use "--fix-broken install".
Cheers
