moc deos not add constructor/deconstructor and languageChange()
by Mehmet Özdemir 11 Feb '12

11 Feb '12

Hi all, I am trying to compile kdebase-3.5.13 with cmake. I have already compiled arts, tqtinterface, qt3 and kdelibs. My problem is moc does not add constructor/deconstructor and languageChange() function although there is a declaration for them in the header file which is created by uic. And while linking shared object I get undefined reference errors for these functions. Failied part of the build log and nm output is attached. Does anyone have an idea what I must do? Thanks in advance.

Can't run Root Shell?
by Darrell Anderson 11 Feb '12

11 Feb '12

I'm running a GIT version of TDE. In the Panel Terminal widget button is an optin called Root Shell. When I select that option I repeatedly receive an error message that the password is incorrect. This is not a path problem because the same thing happens when I use the full path of /opt/trinity/bin/konsole --type su. I have no such problems using tdesu or starting a normal konsole and then using su or su - to login in as root. Can anybody confirm this behavior? Darrell

Building Trinity with older distros
by Darrell Anderson 11 Feb '12

11 Feb '12

Is this possible? I'm not asking for support. I only want to know whether Trinity will build on older distros. Has anything been done to Trinity that prevents building on older distros? That is, KDE 3.5.10 goes quite a few years back and could still be built today with older distros, but will Trinity build? Darrell

qt3 or tqt3? Also which patches have been applied?
by David C. Rankin 10 Feb '12

10 Feb '12

Tim, All, Looking at the git repository under main/dependencies I find both qt3 and tqt3. The first questions is do we want the build based on tqt3 or qt3? Both look fairly identical. Next, there were a number of standard kde and arch patches that were applied when I was building last year. I am sorting though them to find what has already made its way into the code. Does anyone have a list of what patches have already been applied to tqt3? For qt3 we were applying the following: gcc46-arch.diff qt-3.3.8-buffered-iconview.patch qt-3.3.8-eyecandy.patch qt-3.3.8-fix-qtextedit-vulnerability.diff qt-3.3.8-xinerama.patch qt-3.3.8-xinerama-qpopupmenu.diff qt-3.3.8-xmms-dynamic.patch qt-copy-kde-patches.tar.bz2 qt-odbc.patch qt-patches.tar.bz2 qt-png14.patch I will try to pick through these sets of patches and find out what will and won't apply any more over the next few days. If this has already been done, then please STOP ME, I hate reinventing the wheel. If not I'll go forward. It seems that the standard qt-3.3.8-xxxxx patches should have been committed to the tqt3 source, but that is what I need to discover. That's where I be... I would appreciate and help or wisdom on the patch issue if you have it. Thanks -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

switch_all_submodules_to_head_and_clean -> Stopping at 'experimental'; script returned non-zero status.
by David C. Rankin 09 Feb '12

09 Feb '12

Tim, all, Is this OK? I have run into this error with the script after cloning the current repository: 01:02 archangel:/dat_e/tde> ./scripts/switch_all_submodules_to_head_and_clean Preparing /dat_e/tde for development use Enter your TDE GIT username []: drankin HEAD is now at 6df356b Reset submodule main/tdebase to latest HEAD Removing libqt-mt.so Removing libqt-mt.so.3 Removing libqt-mt.so.3.3 Already up-to-date.

Entering 'experimental' This script can only be run from a top level git directory. Exiting... Stopping at 'experimental'; script returned non-zero status. I presume this is OK, but wanted to check before I start down a path with a messed up clone of the repository. What say the experts? P.S. - How is the audiofile 3.2 -> 3.3 release and libpng 1.5.8 release impacting current building? -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

Backporting commit 1f39650
by Slávek Banko 08 Feb '12

08 Feb '12

Hi. I tried to include 1f39650 commit[1] to QT from Trinity 3.5.13. Compilation went without problems. But after installing an updated version of QT began to fall almost all programs. Please, you have some advice? 1f39650 depends on a previous commits? Should I report it as a separate bug? Backtrace attached... [1] commit 1f39650: [Qt3] Initialize Qt X11 When threading threading is enabled This closes Bug 812 Slavek --

krandrtray executable not being builtstrinity-devel@lists.pearsoncomputing.net
by Jay 03 Feb '12

03 Feb '12

After compiling both tdelibs and tdebase i found that the krandrtray (or trandrtray perhaps) executable is not being built and placed in /usr/bin. The libraries (libtrandr.so.4 ) appear in place. Is anyone else seeing this? Jay

koffice issues
by Jay 03 Feb '12

03 Feb '12

http://www.trinitydesktop.org/wiki/bin/view/Developers/HowToBuild The wiki states: The libwv2.la file provided upstream is broken with respect to automake and will cause automake to fail. Basically, /usr/lib/libwv2.la is missing a proper header statement. This should be patched when creating the wv2-0.4.2 package. I built the latest wv2 source using cmake. When using this package, koffice build fails at libwv2.la (as mentioned). Does this need patching for cmake too? If so where does one find the patch? Koffice crashing after opening template. When i start some of the koffice apps (kword, kspread) they crash after opening the default template. Removing the %u from the .desktop files and provding the full path to the executable seems to work for me. slackware-13.37 (everything installed in /usr with no KDE4). Jay

Need translation help
by Darrell Anderson 02 Feb '12

02 Feb '12

I am revising and updating the Trinity documentation. In tdebase/khelpcenter/plugins/ is a desktop file named userguide.desktop. That file is used to create the table of contents in the Help Center. Although minor, the file is inconsistent with terminology used everywhere else in TDE. AS IS: Name=KDE Users' Manual CHANGE TO: Name=TDE User Guide Changing KDE to TDE is straightforward as well as changing the English text. The challenge is updating all of the other languages to "TDE User Guide." If somebody wants to help with the documentation and is familiar with using various language translation tools, would you please consider updating this file? I would be much grateful for the help. Thank you! Darrell

Qt4 tools compatibility
by L0ner sh4dou 02 Feb '12

02 Feb '12

I know that there were some changes in this filed with the introduction of TQt with already translated Q* objects to QT*. But I have I noticed on my system another thing having both qt3.3.8d and qt4.8.0 installed and I don't know if there are movements to resolve this. Qt provides set of tools that enable creation of qt-based applications. Those are: assistant, designer, linguist , lrelease, lupdate, moc, qmake, qtconfig, uic. Those are provided both by qt4 and our qt3. If I have both of the qt versions installed and I try to run one of those applications, only the qt4 versions are launched, and I am unable to launch qt3 ones unless i specify full path to them as command. That may be because I installed qt4 as second, and if I were to install it first and then qt3 then I'd be able to start only those provided by qt3. If I run those commands through whereis I get: assistant: /usr/bin/assistant /opt/qt/bin/assistant designer: /usr/bin/designer /opt/qt/bin/designer linguist: /usr/bin/linguist /opt/qt/bin/linguist lrelease: /usr/bin/lrelease /opt/qt/bin/lrelease lupdate: /usr/bin/lupdate /opt/qt/bin/lupdate moc: /usr/bin/moc /opt/qt/bin/moc qmake: /usr/bin/qmake /opt/qt/bin/qmake qtconfig: /usr/bin/qtconfig /opt/qt/bin/qtconfig Obviously, if I invoke assistant, the first path is executed. As a temporary solution for my packages I create links to the qt3 tools in $prefix/bin/ and name them in the Qt3* scheme. Anyway I think those should be renamed in the TQt3 to avoid collisions with Qt4 ones.
