Quick note for developers/packagers.
Meta packages in TDE code were located in two subfolders (defaultsettings and metapackages).
They have now been consolidated into the metapackages folder.
"defaultsettings" does not exist any longer.
Cheers

tde-mirror-01.inet-design.com seems to have stopped syncing about a week
ago. A gave it a while to catch up but it doesn't seem to be happening.
In light of the above announcement I'm not sure if the mirror is operated
by TDE devels or by Michael.

Something has been bothering me for a very long time, at least a year I think.
Normally to upgrade any distro I boot to multi-user.target, thus, no DE, no
Konsole, is available. To upgrade this way on Mageia, this is what happens:
# rpmqa rootc
rootcerts-20210223.00-1.mga8
# time urpmi --auto-select
A requested package cannot be installed:
trinity-tdelibs-14.0.11-1.mga8.x8y6_64 (due to unsatisfied /etc/ssl/certs/ca-bundle.crt
Continue installation anyway? (Y/n) n
real 0m16.246s
user 0m3.178s
sys 0m0.369s
#
I decided to report this, but because I can't copy & paste from the vttys, I
isolated graphical.target to run urpmi in Konsole. To my shock, instead of
getting the same error message, I get this:
To satisfy dependencies, the following packages are going to be installed:
Package Version Release Arch
(medium "Core Updates")
binutils 2.36.1 1.1.mga8 x86_64
...
rootcerts 20211213.00 1.mga8 noarch
...
trinity-twin 14.0.11 1.mga8 x86_64
42MB of additional disk space will be used.
427MB of packages will be retrieved.
Proceed with the installation of the 202 packages? (Y/n) n
So, I went back to vtty3 and tried again, and again it reports:
... unsatisfied /etc/ssl/certs/ca-bundle.crt
ca-bundle.crt is provided by the rootcerts package. So why is this error
message preventing proceeding with the update only when trying to do so
on a vtty? It doesn't happen if I update rootcerts manually first.

I don't know how to find a crash report or add info to it so here you go.
With respect to the kmail crash report I uploaded a few minutes ago the crash
was repeatable but went away after I did File / Refresh Local IMAP Cache so
probably not a bug you need to worry about.

All I do is launch a session, and the crash handler for the soundserver pops up,
every time, on every installation, on every PC, Intel or AMD, at least 10
installations, maybe more.

Hi,
as I am testing gpg integration in kmail. As now wkd is the new standard for key distribution, I found, that kgpg is not using wkd to find keys.
Calling gpg in the commandline via e.g. "gpg -v --auto-key-locate clear,wkd,nodefault --locate-key EMAIL" find and imports the key. Is ist possible to adapt kgpg to directly use wkd?
Best
