Yes, but only if you use gcc4.

Thanks, this worked. It seems like it all broke when I tried using the updateKDEsvn to update my whole kde svn. I did not have these problems before running that script.

Ill check it out, in the meanwhile, use the 'update' script, its much much better

Did anybody compile kde with gcc4?
Any problems?

Bonkie · Post by **Bonkie** » Wed Oct 05, 2005 10:36 am

Compiled fine with gcc-4.0.x !

Just dont use 4.1.x for now, thats all, and make sure you upgrade binutils & glibc to latest possible versions as well. Some packages will break, but none related to KDE so far

It compiled fine here, too. But I experience some problems running it. artsd is suddenly segfaulting, kdesktop crashes every time I move the mouse over an icon. Pretty annoying

I can't tell for sure if it's because of gcc4, or it's the latest code from svn to blame.

Dont run artsd, so cant comment on that, but I dont have much annoyances from KDE ... Only apps giving me some troubles are kontact (kmail plugin crashes when I send mail), amarok (due to known collection builder problem) and kdm (due to fact that I run modular X and imake/xmkmf isnt packaged yet).

You compiled trunk or branches/3.5 ?? Im on 3.5 branch atm.

A workaround for the kmail crash is to disable the gpg plugin as this seems to be the reason for kmail crashing here.

It doesn't help much in my case

Ok, now I am having another problem with kmail which is a bit more severe.
When I try to add a recipient by writing in the to: line or clicking select kmail crashes.

Does anyone else experience this bug?

Happens here, too

that strange bugs are related to visibility. Give a look at:

alinv · Post by **alinv** » Sat Oct 08, 2005 11:50 am

Indeed, it was a bad ideea to try the new visibility feature. It turned out to be pretty annoying, so I'm recompiling qt&kde w/o it.

Bonkie · Post by **Bonkie** » Sun Oct 09, 2005 12:43 pm

I have noticed some apps are not update by the update script, so I added them but if you should notice that a package isn't updated by the script, let me know and i'll fix it

I would recommend all the people to use qt stable. I have been using qt-7 ebuild for a long time and I have had a lot of problems.

Examples of this are poppler (stable from portage) not compiling, or krita problems while linking.

Now I have changed to qt-3.3.5 (the portage one) and almost all the problems gone.

So it seems there is a problem with qt-7 ebuild.

Cheers.

I can't compile dbus with qt-7, not sure why.

If I were you, I would save a copy of qt-7 (with "quickpkg qt") and then try with 3.3.5.

Bonkie · Post by **Bonkie** » Sun Oct 09, 2005 9:00 pm

I only have qt-7 installed and I dont experience trouble at all

Merlin-TC · Post by **Merlin-TC** » Sun Oct 09, 2005 10:30 pm

I recompiled qt without visibility support and now kmail works flawless again.
I guess we really should wait until it's more stable for all apps.

I made an ebuild for yakuake 2.5 - 2.6.
you can get it here:

I love yakuake, is the best x-terminal I have ever used!

Do the devs have an svn or CVS server? We could add it to the playground like we did with some other apps.

Bonkie · Post by **Bonkie** » Tue Oct 11, 2005 8:16 pm

i already checked their homepage a couple of days ago but found nothing that mentions a public svn or cvs server so ...
