kio_stftp crap
by Ozan Çağlayan 14 Feb '11

14 Feb '11

Hi, In KDE3, kio_sftp is a kioslave with interacts with the ssh process. This is ported to libssh in KDE4. This was apparently working correctly until something low-level is upgraded on distros (glibc, kernel, etc) as now it fails while interacting with SSH because of some problem related to TTY stuff. (I've debugged for 2-3 hours, come to very weird and interesting points but still no fix) The bad thing that it isn't even using KProcess, it implements its own process class. If you write for example a python wrapper like: import subprocess import sys cmd = ["/usr/bin/ssh.orig"] cmd.extend(sys.argv[1:]) subprocess.call(cmd) and save the original ssh binary as ssh.orig and put this wrapper as /usr/bin/ssh, it magically works! Do you have any idea about the issue? There's a bug report on KDE too which is closed as fixed when the slave was ported to libssh in KDE4. None of the codes are modified in Trinity SVN since 3.5.10 import. This kio seems to reserve to be trashed, holy crap. -- Pardus Linux http://www.pardus.org.tr/eng

How Aaron Seigo was breaking Kicker
by Ilya Chernykh 11 Feb '11

11 Feb '11

Here is http://websvn.kde.org/?view=revision&revision=406411 a commit by Aaron Seigo after which the buttons on the Kicker's taskbar ceased being visually pushed (in classical mode). Here is the key string in kicker/taskbar/taskcontainer.cpp: before: style().drawPrimitive(QStyle::PE_HeaderSection, p, QRect(0, 0, width(), height()), colors, sunken ? QStyle::Style_Down : QStyle::Style_Raised); after: style().drawPrimitive(QStyle::PE_HeaderSection, p, QRect(0, 0, width(), height()), colors) I restored the missing parameter and now it works well.

Cmake Developers Wanted!
by Timothy Pearson 09 Feb '11

09 Feb '11

Hello, Trinity is currently undergoing a conversion from Automake to Cmake. We are making this change because the Automake build scripts have broken with recent versions. Cmake is saner and easier to manage, especially with larger projects, such as Trinity. This conversion is critical to TDE because Automake is a major blocker for the 3.5.13 release. After we have converted to the Cmake system, building and maintaining Trinity should be smoother and simpler. We are looking for anyone with Cmake experience, or anyone willing to learn, to come forward and help us with the conversion to Cmake. Thank you, Calvin Morrison On behalf of the Trinity Development Team

Debian takes efforts to remove KDe3 and Qt3 completely
by Ilya Chernykh 08 Feb '11

08 Feb '11

This is what I read in the blog of one of the Debian maintainers: I also emailed one of my upstream maintainers to ask him about the KDE 4 version of his application and he will likely make a release soon. One of the goals for wheezy is remove completely KDE 3 and Qt 3. If you are maintaining a KDE 3 or Qt 3 based application, we are about to start annoying you about this! See http://wiki.debian.org/kdelibs4c2aRemoval and http://wiki.debian.org/qt3-x11-freeRemoval It is interesting why they make so much effort to remove funtionality rather than add.

gtk-qt-engine and GTK3

I wonder whether gtk-qt-engine is capable to work with GTK3?

Qt3 patch

It seems that even after the 3.3.8c patch the configure scripts detect Qt3 version as 3.3.8b.

Mission Control from Ark Linux
by Kristopher Gamrat 01 Feb '11

01 Feb '11

Hi, I would like to propose that we include Ark's Mission Control in Trinity. It pulls together some of the modules in KControl in a reorganized way. The idea behind it is to have the things users use the most pulled together in an easy-to-find way. It was written (obviously) for KDE3, so it will need rewriting by a programmer for TQt by someone more experienced at programming than me. I have been slowly preparing my system to build Trinity. Once I get more organized, I will be able to upload the source tarballs to Mission Control on my personal space on arklinux.org, along with Ark's related patches and spec files from the RPMs that will detail where we apply those patches (these patches will likely need updating for the TQt version). It will probably be a few days, have not had as much time as I would like at the computer (weird work schedule and an upcoming date with the pure hearted girl I've known for years <3 :-D), though I should (at least) have it ready to upload by next week if you guys are interested. Currently I don't have a machine old enough to run our latest release (2008.1) (a bit ironic that the poor fat geeky computer nerd would want to "downgrade" his hardware to use the older hardware heh), but perhaps someone using 2008.1 could take some screenshots? If I'm not mistaken, our illustriously organized Borg with the Kmenus still uses it, not sure if she still has the Mission Control capable KDE installed? -- Kris "Piki" Ark Linux Webmaster Trinity KDE Packager
