Perhaps not just FTBFS, but as many build issue reports as possible: http://bugs.trinitydesktop.org/buglist.cgi?cmdtype=runnamed&namedcmd =Build%20issues I would like to see us push as many PATCHAVAIL as possible. Many people put in the effort to supply patches. We should thank them by pushing the patches if possible. I'm working continually on the help handbooks. At the pace we're going, I think I'll be complete with most of the major interface issues before RC1. But we have lots to do between now and an agreement of declaring RC1. Darrell

If you have any >other etherpads >currently in use that would be a better place for the TDevelop >stuff, let me know. TDevelop is somewhat a mess: a hodge-podge mixture of tdev* and kdev* naming. Horribly inconsistent. We need to perform massive renaming on tdevelop much like we did recently with tdebindings. I started working on this several weeks aog, but then got entrenched in the help handbook surgeries. We should perform this before RC1. Darrell

Basic Function of CTRL+Click to Select Discrete Files Does Not Work in TDE
by David C. Rankin 31 Jan '14

31 Jan '14

All, Really strange behavior in 'konqueror --profile filemanagement' where you cannot select multiple discrete filenames in konqueror by pressing the [ctrl] key and clicking. The feature has always worked in KDE, but apparently has been broken in TDE for a while. I just checked 3.5.13-sru-1 and it is broken there. I can't believe this hasn't been flagged before now. Can someone please confirm this on your install. open konqueror file manager select a directory so you are viewing multiple files on the right side press and hole the [ctrl] key, now try and select multiple random files (you should be able to select/deselect any file without changing your other selections) If you cannot select multiple files with the [ctrl] key pressed, let me know. This is a break in fundamental chooser behavior in konqueror. I have confirmed this bug in both 3.5.13-sru and R14 branches and compared it to correct behavior in openSuSE KDE3. KDE3 works just fine, TDE doesn't. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

>Right now the consensus from the main developers seems to be that >we are >not yet ready, so unfortunately we are not yet able to release >R14.0.0 RC1. For those who are interested, we have some etherpads where we track R14 progress: R14.0.0 Road Map http://trinity.etherpad.trinitydesktop.org/39 R14.0.0 Release Checklist http://trinity.etherpad.trinitydesktop.org/37 R14.0.0 Documentation http://trinity.etherpad.trinitydesktop.org/81 For the past few weeks I have been more than knee deep in the help handbooks. The amount of remaining work is overwhelming. In short, the handbooks are a mess. Many were written in the KDE 3.1 and 3.2 days and haven't been updated since. They are outdated and often incorrect. For triage, and for R14, we should collectively review the top level handbooks: Welcome to TDE (updated, needs proofreading and corrections) A Visual Guide to TDE (updated, needs proofreading and corrections) Quickstart Guide (updated, needs proofreading and corrections) TDE User Guide (review started, needs a lot of additional work and new screenshots) TDE Frequently Asked Questions (updated, needs proofreading and corrections) Remember that i18n reviews would be nice after we finally approve those documents. R14 will survive without any work on the handbooks. Yet the quality of the top level handbooks speak volumes about the project. All help is much appreciated. Feel free to send me markups in nothing but a text file. Darrell

TDevelop Documentation - Help Pages Missing (path problem?)
by David C. Rankin 31 Jan '14

31 Jan '14

Darrell, All I don't know if you have opened TDevelop and looked for any of the help pages, but apparently there is a problem with the search path to the help/man files for a lot of the information can't be found. TDevelop looks like it is operating correctly, but most pages (including help pages for TQt, TQt Designer and TQt Assistant) can't be found. Here is what is working/not working: libxml2 API pages -- working libglade -- working User Agent Acces.. -- working SVG Pages -- working SDL Pages -- Man Page Dependent OpenGL -- Man Page Dependent KDevelop API Docs -- NOT working (bad links?) Document Object Mod -- working The KDE API Reference -- NOT working (bad path?) qmake User Guide -- NOT working TQt Reference Docs -- NOT working TQt Designer Manual -- NOT working TQt Assistant Manual -- NOT working Guide of the TQt Trans. -- NOT working -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

No changes listed for the past three days. Does anybody have a script that can be run on local repos to provide the same information? Darrell

I've seen this before, when logging in with the same account between two systems that have different sound hardware. Try terminating kmix, delete the two kmix* rc files, then start kmix. Darrell
