PyTQt ... kind of a workround to get it working
by Dr. Nikolaus Klepp 12 Jul '26

12 Jul '26

Hi all, I kind of figured out how to get PyTQt working: The problem is this: $ python3 -c "from PyTQt import tqt; print('SUCCESS:', dir(tqt)[:5])" Traceback (most recent call last): File "<string>", line 1, in <module> from PyTQt import tqt; print('SUCCESS:', dir(tqt)[:5]) ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/PyTQt/__init__.py", line 52, in <module> from PyTQt import * ImportError: /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/PyTQt/tqt.cpython-314-x86_64-linux-gnu.so: undefined symbol: _ZN7TQMutex6lockedEv The workaround that my AI helper found is this wrapper: // tqtmutex_wrapper.cpp // Wrapper for TQMutex::locked() ABI mismatch in python3-pytqt // // Problem: PyTQt expects _ZN7TQMutex6lockedEv (non-const member) // libtqt3-mt only exports _ZNK7TQMutex6lockedEv (const member) // // Fix: Provide a wrapper that delegates the non-const call to the const version // // Compile: // g++ -shared -fPIC -o libtqtmutex_wrapper.so tqtmutex_wrapper.cpp // extern "C" { // Forward declare the const version that exists in libtqt3-mt.so.3 bool _ZNK7TQMutex6lockedEv(void* this_ptr); // Provide the non-const version that PyTQt expects bool _ZN7TQMutex6lockedEv(void* this_ptr) { return _ZNK7TQMutex6lockedEv(this_ptr); } } With this wrapper I can run any of the exaples from "pytqt-doc" like this: $ LD_PRELOAD=./libtqtmutex_wrapper.so python3 /usr/share/doc/pytqt-doc/examples/tut1.py So my question here is: how can this be fixed the propper way?

tmix - replacement for kmix for pulseaudio.
by Calvin Morrison 06 Jul '26

06 Jul '26

hi guys, please see this repo and give feedback if you cane it is a pulseaudio based mixer for TDE. it's similar to kmix but not identical. It's similar to pavucontrol-qt but not identical. If you can build it, let me know, if you cannot build it, let me know if you like it... let me know! maybe it could go upstream at some point into tdemultimedia, it would take work, translations, a help guide, probably minimally also an ALSA backend as well. https://git.ceux.org/tmix.git/ thank you all

[François] Mageia upgrade from 9 to 10 refuses to upgrade any TDE packages due to signature key not trusted
by Felix Miata 02 Jul '26

02 Jul '26

Mageia 10 was released yesterday, but upgrading from freshly upgraded 9 32bit, it refuses to upgrade any trinity rpm due to NOT TRUSTED signature key As urpmi --auto-update downloaded all v10 packages, I was able to force install them with rpm, which was very tedious, but TDE & TDM are working. -- Evolution as taught in public schools is, like religion, based on faith, not based on science.
