Hi there.

As a Preliminary Stable Builds user I get updates about once a week.

apt changelog kate-trinity E: Failed to fetch changelog:/tdebase-trinity.changelog Changelog unavailable for tdebase-trinity=4:14.0.7~pre30-0debian10.0.0+6

Synaptic->(select kate-trinity)-> Get Changelog This change is not coming from a source that supports changelogs.

Failed to fetch the changelog for kate-trinity URI was: http://mirror.ppa.trinitydesktop.org/pool/main-r14/t/tdebase-trinity/kat e-trinity_14.0.7~pre30-0debian10.0.0+6_amd64.changelog

So being able to examine the git repo to see what changes were made looks like the only option.

I may be missing something obvious so apologies in advance if I did.

Where is the git repo?

Hi Philip,

changelog loaded from the package would not be very useful because it contains only the information about the git tag / hash from which the package is compiled, not the detailed git log.

Git repository is in the usual place. Because PSB repository is for stable branch, you have to watch changes in r14.0.x branch - for example:

https://mirror.git.trinitydesktop.org/cgit/tdebase/log/?h=r14.0.x

In any case, other good sources for tracking changes are the preliminary changelog for R14.0.7 release in the wiki (updated weekly) and the list of patches in r14.0.x branch for all repositories.

https://wiki.trinitydesktop.org/Changelog_For_R14.0.7 https://mirror.git.trinitydesktop.org/patches/?search=&branch=r14.0.x

Cheers

Thanks for your response.

My next question is, how do I find out what were the changes between what I have installed and the update I'm about to install?

The related question is, how do I build preliminary stable Trinity?

For context, I get a tdesession crash about 1/3 of the time I log out, which inspires me to know more.

I would want any changes I proposed to be in relation to PSB.
