Crippling problem with KDevelop after upgrading to 3.5.13.1
by John A. Sullivan III 14 Oct '12

14 Oct '12

Hello, all. I am completely hobbled in KDevelop since upgrading to 3.5.13.1. On 3.5.12, all worked fine. Now, I cannot compile. Not being a heavy duty programmer, I am somewhat hampered in troubleshooting this but it has me stopped in my tracks at work. I added a new .ui file and it corresponding subclasses and tried to compile. It failed immediately with an error about tqt missing but I'm building a qt3 application. I ran distclean followed by automake and friends. When I run configure, I receive a warning about: checking if TQt is available... no configure: WARNING: You are attempting to compile Trinity without the Trinity Qt Interface installed. Please install libtqtinterface-dev and try again! I've checked and libtqtinterface-dev is installed. I don't know why it's even checking for TQt. When I try to build, I get: /usr/share/qt3/bin/moc /home/jsullivan/gitISCS/iscs/spm/src/acceptcadialog.h acceptcadialog.moc Qt meta object compiler moc: Too many input files specified Usage: moc [options] <header-file> -o file Write output to file rather than stdout -f[file] Force #include, optional file name -p path Path prefix for included file -i Do not generate an #include statement -k Do not stop on errors -nw Do not display warnings -v Display version of moc make[2]: *** [acceptcadialog.moc] Error 1 make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make: *** [all] Error 2 *** Exited with status: 2 *** What is going on here? Is there a bug where the output file in the moc command is not being preceded with a -o? I also thought it a bad indication when I checked my Qt Options for the project and the Qt3 directory was set to /usr and in glaring red (meaning it is not a valid qt3 directory). I changed it back to /usr/share/qt3 but it is still showing as red. I'm very badly stuck on a major project so all help is deeply appreciated. Thanks - John

Problem with new Qt3 Widget in KDevelop
by John A. Sullivan III 13 Oct '12

13 Oct '12

Hello, all. I've recently upgraded from TDE 3.5.12 to 3.5.13.1 on Debian Squeeze but I do not know if this problem was introduced with that upgrade. I am working on a regular Qt3 application (yes, I know I need to upgrade it) inside of KDevelop and created a new Qt3 Dialog by right clicking in the Automake Manager and creating a new file. I then tried to open it in Qt Designer and it refused to open. Here is the .ui file it initially created: <!DOCTYPE UI><UI version="3.1" stdsetdef="1"> <class>Form1</class> <widget class=TQDIALOG_OBJECT_NAME_STRING> <property name="name"> <cstring>Form1</cstring> </property> <property name="geometry"> <rect> <x>0</x> <y>0</y> <width>600</width> <height>480</height> </rect> </property> <property name="caption"> <string>Form1</string> </property> </widget> <layoutdefaults spacing="6" margin="11"/> </UI> I then manually edited using another QDialog as a template so that it reads: <!DOCTYPE UI><UI version="3.3" stdsetdef="1"> <class>RadioButtonVariableDlg</class> <widget class="QDialog"> <property name="name"> <cstring>RadioButtonVariableDlg</cstring> </property> <property name="geometry"> <rect> <x>0</x> <y>0</y> <width>600</width> <height>480</height> </rect> </property> <property name="caption"> <string>SPM - Choice Dialog</string> </property> </widget> <layoutdefaults spacing="6" margin="11"/> </UI> and that opens. It was not just a matter of changing <widget class=TQDIALOG_OBJECT_NAME_STRING> to <widget class=QDialog> as I tried that. It appears that the magic change is changing <widget class=TQDIALOG_OBJECT_NAME_STRING> to <widget class="QDialog"> (N.B. the quotation marks around QDialog). Thanks - John

Changing bugzilla behaviour
by Janek S. 13 Oct '12

13 Oct '12

Each time I enter Trinity's bugzilla it takes a lot of time to load the front page because all unresolved bugs are displayed. When I log in I am once again redirected to the same page, which causes it to be reloaded. It's a bit of annoying because it actually takes quite a lot of time to display all the bugs and I imagine it also puts unnecessary load on the server. My usual use-case is: log in to bugzilla and then report a new bug or view list of my bugs. This means that these two huge queries to bugzilla could be safely ommited. Can this behaviuor be changed?

Trinity's release model
by Janek S. 12 Oct '12

12 Oct '12

After upgrading to 3.5.13.1 and getting a bunch of new bugs introduced I started thinking it might be a good idea to release new packages continously as changes are made to the code, instead of doing a big release once every few months. I realize there are some major changes going on in the code and they cannot be released partially. Still I think that thanks to git's branching and merging capabilities it should be possible to merge some smaller changes and bugfixes into master and release them as update. Woludn't that be an easier way to track new bugs introduced to the code? Instead of getting a whole load of bug reports after a major release, bugs would be reported as they appear and would be easier to track down to conrete packages and changes made in the code. Janek

Precise depends on libexiv2 from Quetzal
by Tony Rein 11 Oct '12

11 Oct '12

Hi. I just installed gwenview-trinity (only KDE3 program I use) from the latest trinity update. I got it to work, but one of the dependencies is libexiv2-12, which is newer than the libexiv2 in the Ubuntu Precise repositories. I had to manually install libexiv2-12 from Quetzal, which I downloaded from packages.ubuntu.com Tony

Kmail displays garbage
by Janek S. 09 Oct '12

09 Oct '12

I have problems when answering emails sent from a Zimbra web interface. When I click "Reply" the new message contains garbage instead of quotation of original message. This happens only with some emails, probably the ones that were composed using HTML editor. Does anyone know how to fix this? Jan

Keyboard in Trinity and K*-trinity applications in LXDE
by Lisi Reisz 08 Oct '12

08 Oct '12

I am running: Trinity 3.5.13 updated with Slavek's patches Squeeze LXDE installed and used when essential I have just run aptitude update. There were no upgrades. There were 2 yesterday. My keyboard has disappeared in Trinity. There is obviously nothing wrong with the keyboard(s), both PS2 and USB, both of which I have tried, or the connection to the motherboard, since keyboards work in the BIOS, gdm and LXDE. This situation is made worse for me by the fact that k*-trinity applications, with the exception of Konqueror, will not run in LXDE. There is no KWrite, and I do not find Nano a long term acceptable substitute, and I can run neither KMail nor Amarok. Not only are these applications not in the menu, they will not run in the console, with error message "command not found". What have I done to upset Trinity?? And how do I persuade it to function for me again?? There is obviously a problem with my imported home. Other people for whom I have installed Trinity, but who had little or no previous data, have ridden off into the sunset. But what problem, where? Lisi

E: Unable to fetch some archives, maybe run apt-get update or try with --fix-missing?
by Peter Laws 08 Oct '12

Can't be good. I get a bunch of 404s from http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/trinity/trinity-v3.5.13/ubuntu/ I don't know the APT tools well enough to know if having this fail will leave me in a broken state or not. -- Peter Laws / N5UWY National Weather Center / Network Operations Center University of Oklahoma Information Technology plaws(a)ou.edu College of Architecture, Regional and City Planning, MRCP '16 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Feedback?
