This is not strictly a Trinity question. I have been trying to follow the
tutorials in TQt Assistant, but I'm being stymied by several issues. I have
almost the complete suite of Trinity components installed (bar a few that I
don't want to run even accidentally).
The first (and perhaps most important) issue is that, while
trinity-tqt3-debuginfo and trinity-tqt3-debugsource are present and
installed, trinity-tqt3 is not, nor is it present in OpenSuSE's
trinity-x86-64 repository. I'm not sure what that package provides, but I
suspect that its absence is part of my problems.
I am able to run tqdesigner, but most of the icons that it ought to provide
to GUIs that are created are missing (e.g. fileopen, filesave, editcut,
editcopy, ...); perhaps these would have been provided by trinity-qt3?
I'm also a bit bemused that tqdesigner is installed in /usr/bin,
not /opt/trinity/bin; at first I was afraid that it had come from kde4 or 5.
There is also kdevdesigner, which is a component of tdevelop. It loops if
started without a filepath argument, and crashes when I try to open any file.
(Actually, all of the components of that package seem to behave this way.)
Which is the preferred toolset to be used for development, tdevelopment or
the tqt3-* components?
In any case, I'm assuming that I'm not going to get any farther without
trinity-tqt3 installed. Is there a way for me to get it direct from the
Trinity git environment?

Hi Slávek,
I used the mail.
Do I need to put a subject or some contents to the mail?
Thanks,
Pascal
Since this conversation appears to have gone off the rails already -- at least
three or four "leaps" in thought beyond the original question and header -- I
am starting a new thread.
Please feel free to cut out the excess verbiage.

Yeah, I keep hearing about other distros to check out. When I was a couple
decades younger, I used to try out new distros. And it's fun, and if I had
more machines on which I could run experiments, while keeping at least one or
two machines working soundly, then I would jump in without hesitation.
I used to have a room full of Frankenstein computers, all of them built out of
parts, used to perform different kinds of tasks, including at least one or
two test machines. But now I must be content with just a BIG desktop
Frankenstein, although I am trying to get a couple of reconditioned laptops
for testing machines and for use as travel.
I have the same basic problem with both books and music. To untrained eyes
(such as landlords, property managers, etc.), this looks like useless
clutter; but I swear, all this stuff is the absolute bare minimum needed for
me to accomplish what I have set out to do.
There is nothing to be gained in trying to explain to outsiders just *why* I
believe that I need so much, because they won't ever get it no matter how
well I explain it to them.
For the present, I must try to limit myself to keeping things that will
actually fit inside my living space; otherwise, there will be nowhere for me
to rest my head at night.

Hi Slávek,
I registered to the new trinity-users mailing list weeks ago but when I
try to login I get:
Subscription request already pending
Same result for the trinity-devels mailing list...
I did not received confirmation e-mail either.
Did I do something wrong?
Thanks,

Hi all,
A bit off-topic but, may I kindly suggest to add KoolDock to the
applications list, which I ported to TDE five years ago and is not part
of the list...
If not, nobody will know it exists.
It is part of my TDE base desktop and it is a really nice app :-)
Thanks,
Pascal

Hi Nick,
If you run it and do not see it, it is probably hidden behind the TDE
panel because, it is located at the bottom of the screen by default :-)

KoolDock is a nice app docking application.
As I don't want to have any icons on the screen background because they
are hidden by other running program, I added the apps I use the most in it.
I placed it at the top of my second screen and set the auto-hide feature on.
So even while running a program in full screen I just have to "touch"
the top of the screen with the mouse to make it appear and start an
other program.
Well, it is old (since KDE 1.4) but it is easy to use, slim, very
reliable and has a nice look.
I used it for years with TDE and thought it was a nice goody to give as
a contribution.

Enjoy it!
Cheers,
Pascal
