Hi Michele, Slavek, all,
The recent changes QT_* -> TQT_* in headers (example Q_EXPORT -> TQ_EXPORT)
are impacting the pinentry application.
I remember we discussed once how we'll proceed with updates, but I do not
recall. I could prepare the patches and probably push upstream.
What is your view on this matter?
thanks in advance
BR

Recent KDE3s no longer require *arts*. Why does TDE? As if alsa shouldn't be
enough to start with on Linux, most newer installations have been moving from
pulseaudio to pipewire/plumber. What is it that arts offers? Doesn't its presence
get tangled with pulse/pipe?

Hi,
in packaging the metapackage for desktop-base somehow has more than the
debian directory.
Is it an error in the master repo or in my local copy and how to repair?

FTR, this definitely is happening in Trixie.

Attached tdm.log is from Fedora 39. In past several years through last spring,
I've had nominal trouble running the TDE for latest release on whatever release is
upcoming, in this case, F38>F39. This one on Kaby Lake host ab250 won't more than
pretend to start a TDE session either from startx or TDM. Attempting to start one
brings some screen flashing, then TDM returns. Selecting IceWM session instead of
TDE produces same result. I find no clues to session failure in journal, dmesg,
Xorg.X.log or .xsession-errors, while tdm.log grows from 0 to nearly 40k from just
starting, before any attempt to login.
An unlogged clue may be seen in session type selection: no matter what is selected
for current session (attempt), on the next return to session selection, "previous"
remains where it was before the upgrade from F38 to F39, on the second of the two
TDEs, right above failsafe.

This has been an irritation for a long time, but various components of TDE
are crashing more and more frequently on my machine, and the Crash Handler is
never able to send its reports to you. I have attached what the Crash
Handler says whenever I try.
Has this method of reporting failures become obsolete? If so, why is the
code still there, misleading users who try to report failures?

I don't know enough about TDE development to know if you TDE developers need
to be aware of this but I thought I should post it here just in case.

One of my hobbies is online debating on a variety of subjects. I have
separate directories for many topics with downloaded data, notes, etc. I
also usually have multiple programming projects active, most with their own
directories.
I prefer to keep tabs open for active topics and projects, rather than
constantly closing them and re-navigating as I change focus.
For Firefox, I have a Python program that can list all open windows and
tabs, or find the window that has a particular tab. I'd like to do the same
thing for Konqueror.
Is there a system call (preferably with a Python API, but I have
experience in lots of languages) that will give me a list of Konqueror
windows and tabs?
Also, is there an API for a list of Konsole windows? I'd like to do a
command that would grep the window list and pop up the relevant window.
Thanks,
Ran

Is this a known issue? Can some file from an older installation be copied, e.g.
to /usr/local/?

Hi,
I'm forwarding this from the Users list as Mike suggested. It's a side-issue
to my attempt to debug an OpenOffice problem, but it would be nice to know
why some TDE components try to write to /etc/tqt3/tqt_plugins_3.5rc.tmp,
which of course is not writable by non-root accounts?

Mike,
When I start OpenOffice from the command line, I see this:
| @16:27:21 ─▶leslie@pinto◀─
| wd=~
| $ /opt/openoffice4/program/soffice
| [2023/07/18 16:27:35.332] TQSettings::sync: failed to
open '/etc/tqt3/tqt_plugins_3.5rc.tmp' for writing
| Application Error[kcrash] TDECrash:
Application 'soffice.bin-gtk-tqt-application' crashing...
| rc=253
Probably this is a red-herring, but why would an application (or Trinity?) be
trying to write a file into /etc/? (I tried making that file world-writable,
but I get the same error.)
