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?
François Andriot has already built Trinity 3.5.13 on RHEL5, which age is approximately the same as Slackware 11.0. The KDE e.V. publishes a list of requirements of KDE 3.5 here: http://www.kde.org/info/requirements/3.5.php so it may actually build, with some features disabled, with much older Slackware versions (Slackware 8.1 is the first one to provide simultaneously GCC 2.95, zlib 1.1 and libpng 1.2 by default). Obviously some new packages will be needed (at least CMake 2.8).
