trouble with git - TDE repo
by gregory guy 01 Jun '18

01 Jun '18

Hi there! Sorry to step in the devs's room but I'm seeking information about git uses to clone the TDE repository. Yesterday I applyed the method displayed in the wiki, namely: - git clone https://mirror.git.trinitydesktop.org/cgit/tde - cd tde - git submodule init -- scripts - git submodule update -- scripts - ./scripts/switch_all_submodules_to_head_and_clean anonymous After more than 6 hours of downloading (at an average of 70 kib/s) the connexion stopped and wouldn't restart properly. I don't think I can fetch the entire project history in those conditions, this would take days...I guess! Is there a way to shorten the cloning in order to get the last code? I tryed with "--depth=1" but I was rather unsuccessfull on the matter. Regards gregory

help with tqt dbus
by deloptes 01 Jun '18

01 Jun '18

Hi, I try someting with tqt dbus - I want to try to talk to BT. I found this nice application dbusxml2qt3 and I want to thank the author for the effort, even if have not (yet) succeeded with it. I have a problem when I try to compile generated code. It says: error: no matching function for call to 'TQT_DBusDataMap<TQT_DBusObjectPath>::TQT_DBusDataMap(TQMap<TQT_DBusObjectPath, TQT_DBusDataMap<TQString> >&)' reply << TQT_DBusData::fromObjectPathKeyMap(TQT_DBusDataMap< TQT_DBusObjectPath >(_objects)); ... ... ... /usr/include/dbus-1-tqt/tqdbusdatamap.h:477:5: note: candidate: TQT_DBusDataMap<K>::TQT_DBusDataMap(const TQMap<T, TQT_DBusVariant>&) [with T = TQT_DBusObjectPath] TQT_DBusDataMap<T>(const TQMap<T, TQT_DBusVariant>& other) etc etc. This is the line where it fails TQMap< TQT_DBusObjectPath, TQT_DBusDataMap< TQString > > _objects; and in the header I have template <typename K, typename V> class TQMap; template <typename K> class TQT_DBusDataMap; Does it mean it is missing in tqt dbus as I think dbusxml2qt3 is working fine, but could be Variant was added later somewhere in dbus? I understand I am missing prototype for TQMap< TQT_DBusObjectPath, TQT_DBusDataMap< TQString > > Who can help me work around this situation? Thanks in advance

14.0.5 schedule? 14.1.0 schedule?
by Mike Bird 31 May '18

31 May '18

Debian Jessie (which is also the base for Devuan Jessie) moves to limited LTS June 6th. Stable TDE 14.0.4 does not support Debian Stretch. PSB TDE 14.0.5 supports Debian Stretch and reportedly works well, but there are still frequent updates which would tend to preclude rollout to stable deployments. (Devuan Ascii which is based on Debian Stretch made RC on May 9th and should be Stable soon.) What please is the plan for Stable TDE 14.0.5? And what please is the plan for TDE 14.1.0 (which I have not tried). Thanks, --Mike

Proposal for changes of URLs pointing to themes.kde.org
by Dr. Nikolaus Klepp 31 May '18

31 May '18

Hi all! I just stepped in kcontrol over the URL leading http://themes.kde.org again. http://themes.kde.org redirects to https://store.kde.org/ - if you try to find a working theme for TDE, you have to look very hard. But https://www.trinity-look.org/ (served from the same server) gives the correct category. I've added 2 patches, one for kcontrol, the second for the tabbedbrowsing profile to replace these URLS. In tabbedbrowsing I also changed the URLS from KDE internals to TDE mainsite and TDE wiki. Would it be possible to change this cosmetic anoyance in the next release? Nik -- Please do not email me anything that you are not comfortable also sharing with the NSA, CIA ...

changes to konqueror ark plugin submenu
by Michele Calgaro 29 May '18

29 May '18

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 Dear all, the "compress as" submenu in Konqueror is going to have some minor rework. We are changing the default compression format from gz to xz and enabling jar format (which could be useful for java programmers). We would like to remove lzma from that menu since we think it is not widely used anymore (the format would still be available through the "Add to archive" entry). Any objection on this last point before we proceed? thanks Michele -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAEBCgAdFiEEjhl1z5vbYB3YbFTiKnW3yore1c8FAlsNB/QACgkQKnW3yore 1c9MBg/+Nr+hMbtK7EE/F+B010HlOm8bDKN9ivSkVY6+hCqG6MAXIZtBJjACLsKo i84yChQnehPaL2pSNEY83MIguRN9FFVxHtgw3gNOkAU1zqnLPTZw4ug963aPBT6Q L4tf0CHjdFehaNBPLbKF3GfuAHzqC+VjRKTwVurXw9bXzLOCAie/ABdZbz3INYBo y8ATRbiyRlr3oGaaujIXoQkj7I2q5a7nw9DFFL1UhncgxLbnRSWgo8ttXfM+nkgx 7gp/5KHH6DucWWBPnY1m6KsRB5DpprRVHKg5krtD/sln59XvXK92CmzvMRyieH2M 8DNCrePSVEHiaFRDPM1LjRT9ntEMeaWTbpaGUdgHsYgnUbGsbG+asHz+NEwEjvSE LkRGDof2lVGfiQLjRxpP2JZ1uVaTyXQv9+yByj7A77f9jTylXju6dNVegvnPWnBP NZ8MWB2Q3TztPWyLS3NeSJHX6XLfBDj3Iw9gbXg6KRATnJLuw1M/3N6Lldnw6dwp TZtuHXOLacbt1XQDt/MuL1HjFQK5Xsech1ZyDktW74HLWGqGO8ZLTPfWp074YBBK sdGp/8UQVRo84Za9Wz8TYxJJBobwBcHoxLFdDNzjomEtf12HcLfnhk23x3oooJ51 kEsNrjJ/BiZg7iKB+888qER3U1y5Hq6l5moA0nIit1cxy8UvwKY= =fjkJ -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

The projects fatal mistake
by wofgdkncxojef 29 May '18

29 May '18

The projects fatal mistake, is to think, that only the next bug fix matters. All social aspects are ignored. Proof of that, is that you even refuse to move the user mailing list to an official reddit. The easiest thing to do, and still considered not worth the trouble. regards

What a trinity leader should have done.
by wofgdkncxojef＠gmail.com 29 May '18

29 May '18

1. Shut down the user mailing list, and drag you kicking and screaming, to an official reedit 2. Shut down the git repo, and drag you kicking and screaming to github. 3. Impose renaming as top priority, and a split in several categories. With main, of guaranteed minimum quality. 4. Bend over backwards, so that trinity is accepted in Debian. All this, is just to increase exposire of the project. You have to go, where people are. This way, you get more users and devs. Instead, every one here, only see's the very short term. Literally, just the next patch. This can not be done, without some one in charge.....

proposal to change project leader
by wofgdkncxojef＠gmail.com 28 May '18

28 May '18

Yes, this is a coup.... Well, i don't think i'm saying anything controversial, when i'm saying that pearson has no time for trinity, and the project is effectively leaderless. From the perspective of an outsider (me), Slavek seams the most invested in the project.... Maybe he should be in charge.

Renaming and split in to official and extra
by wofgdkncxojef＠gmail.com 27 May '18

27 May '18

Ok, everyone listen. I'm proposing to split the programs, in official trinity and extra. The list of official packages should be restricted. They should be of good enough quality and as a whole should be close to the functionality of DE like MATE and xfce. The devs should decide upon the list, and then make sure they maintain their quality. They should be renamed, with proper names, not kdename-trinity, and pulled out of opt. In extra will be everything else. The idea is, for the official part to be more appealing to distros. If trinity get's in to distros, it will have more exposure and get more devs. an initial proposal of what the official packages could be: all the base system and libs of course kdesktop, kicker, tdenetwork manager, tdm, kmix, klipper, control center, dolphin, kwrite, kmail, kwallet, kaffeine, konsole, amarok, kalculator, gwenview, ark, kpdf other?. konqueror is not good enough for a default file manager because of it's outdated web browsing component. all the above should get proper names, not kdename-trinity and moved out of opt. Even the libs, should be renamed something like trinity libs, not tqt. The stuff in extra can stay in opt as it is. And don't forget, the quality of what will be in the list must stay good enough, you can't just shove everything. Once the list will be desided, then it will need to be decided how to rename them. The whole point of this, is to have something nice, the distros can accept taking in. They should not see "Konqueror-trinity" that can't render facebook or youtube. The whole point of getting accepted by distros, is so that the project gets more exposure and hence more devs.

proposal, move to github
by wofgdkncxojef＠gmail.com 27 May '18

27 May '18

I'm proposing to move to github. Not for technical reasons. Github is the facebook of open source. Been there, should attract more devs.... Moving the code will be simple enough. The bugs however will not be straight forward....
