I do not feel bad with the "CLI tools". I prefer graphical tools, knowing very
well the "price" of the use of graphics. I am one of those that programmed a
6800 microprocessor based system typing on a VT52... (-: I guess that some of
the readers will not hunderstand "6800", "VT52")
You are correct in that SVN is not inherently buggy, but the anonsvn
server at KDE e.V. is quite slow and its connection is unstable. It can
be a real nightmare to check out the entire Trinity source from that
server.
We have had plans for a while now to migrate the source from the KDE e.V.
SVN server to our own GIT server immediately following the 3.5.13 release.
Hopefully that will not only encourage more developers to get involved,
but also fix the anonymous checkout that has been a problem ever since
this project began.

After each stop on error, I re-sent the command "svn co
svn://anonsvn.kde.org/home/kde/branches/trinity ./".
After about ten trials, there was a lot of messages like:
Récupération de la référence externe dans 'xxxx'
Référence externe extraite à la révision 1258108
(Recovery in the external reference 'xxxx'
External reference to the revision 1258108 extracted)
but nothing looking like an error message.
Now, I have a 2.7Go (2904303007) directory containing 334567 files, and 70478
sub directories.
I downloaded QT3 and have a qt-x11-free-3.3.8b directoty of 62.8 Mo. The
man:patch shows a lot of options (related of the version of the diff file for
the less). Could you confirme that puting the file qt3_3.3.8c.diff in the
qt-x11-free-3.3.8b directory, then in a Konsol:
cd /...../qt-x11-free-3.3.8b
patch < qt3_3.3.8c.diff
Will be OK?
Before compiling and installing, I would like to know if it is possible, at
the time of login, to choose the window manager between a "Trinity for the
test" and "Trinity for the work"? I guess that the best would be a
"Trinity
for the test" running in a virtual system, but one of the last bug posted
let me think that the testing is not so complet, on a virtual system.
Good luck to everyone,
Patrick
