 Posted: Wed Apr 16, 2003 12:14 pm Post subject: Kdevelop gideon |
 |
|
Hi,
I can't seem to find the latest version of kdevelop (3.0 also called "gideon") on the portage tree although the alpha-3 version has been released in 8th january. I didn't found any bugs in the bugzilla database related to this version, but I did found some threads in the forums of people trying to install this version.
Is it already on portage? I've tried 'emerge -s gideon' also with no luck... If it isn't, can I write an ebuild for it?
thank you
Marco |

I think the best way to track gideon(kdevelop) is from KDE's cvs server. It gets updated every day.
The current build of gideon is pretty slick.
While your at it you can run KDE 3.1.9 built nightly from cvs. |

| do you know of an ebuild script for the nightly generated tarballs, or do you just install from source? if so, when you install a newer tarball do you first make uninstall or do you just install over the old one? |

I just run a script to update a local copy of the source tree from kde's cvs server. To do the nightly rebuild the script runs:
| Code: | make -f Makefile.cvs
./configure --prefix=/opt/kde --with-qt-dir=/opt/qt
make
make install |
on each kde module (arts, kdelibs, kdebase, kdevelop, etc).
If you want to you can delete the entire kde directory before you rebuild but I rarely do.
A good build script can be found in the kdesdk module (kde-build).
The kde developer web site has all the information you need to do this. |

There is a kdevelop cvs ebuild at http://cvs.gentoo.org/~danarmak/kde-cvs.html It is part of the kde-cvs structure. You can just update the kdevelop-5 cvs. I am running kde 3.1.1a with the cvs kdevelop and it works great.

I tried the instructions on this page, set the following variables:
# export ECVS_TOP_DIR="$DISTDIR/cvs-src/kde"
# export ECVS_SERVER="anoncvs.kde.org:/home/kde"
... and it ended up putting all my stuff in "/usr" instead of "/usr/kde/cvs". What did I do wrong?? gideon works and is great, but I'm just curious as to where I went wrong. Thanks!

I haven't tried this, but according to the instructions on the web page:
| Quote: | | 3rd party kde apps (that is, everything not in the kde-base category) always install into /usr. |
and then it says :
| Quote: |
These are features, not bugs
All non-kde-base apps install into /usr, thus you cannot have a cvs version of eg koffice alongside a stable one. If you want that kind of setup, install the cvs version into a custom dir somewhere and add it to KDEDIRS (probably in startkde or such, not in env.d, because if you have both koffice installs in KDEDIRS things might get ugly). |
and it also says:
| Quote: |
You can set the KDEPREFIX variable (in the profile or the environment) to make all kde apps (including ones from the kde-base category) install in $KDEPREFIX. |
so it seems that you have to set your KDEPREFIX variable to something before emerging, but I can be wrong...

This might be slightly offtopic. 
Do you know if there is any way to make kdevelop 2 to coexist hapily with gideon? I know that both ask to be installed in kde dir, but I'm not ready (actually it's gideon not ready  ) to migrate from v 2.x to 3.x. |
