can someone confirm that kdelibs doesn't build without ssl flag before reporting a bug?

me too, kdelibs fails to build without ssl flag under gentoo 64bit

/var/tmp/portage/kde-base/kdelibs-4.1.2-r1/work/kdelibs-4.1.2/kio/kssl/ksslpkcs12.cpp:244: προειδοποίηση: unused parameter ‘p’
make[1]: *** [kio/CMakeFiles/kio.dir/all] Error 2

i cant compile plasma-workspace under gentoo-64bit , also with the kde4.2 from svn
i got an error

Unfortunately your error logs tells absolutely nothing as you enabled parallel compilation (-j2 or more), paste here the line that actually contains error message not compilation summary. Besides - what CPU do you have that does not have SSE?

I put kde 4 compiling overnight, but installing kdelibs failed due to a file conflict with kile. It turned out to be a kdeprefix issue. Now, I could just turn on the kdeprefix USE flag, but I just know if I do that I'll get later on similar bugs in reverse as a price for not using the default way.

could you file that bug? I have very slow machine atm and it would take a while to get output of that error (forgot to copy it). thanks in advance

I'm looking for a way to auto login as it was possible in 3.5 in kcontrol and a way to move items in the panel where I want them to be. Anyone know a way to do that?

Edit:
Just found a way to move things around in the panel but they simply won't go there where I want them.

erikderzweite · Post by **erikderzweite** » Sat Oct 11, 2008 6:55 pm

You have to start systemsettings as root AKAIK to be able to change KDM settings in Advanced-Login Manager. Threre is no kdesu prompt for that.

To move things around, unlock widgets (if they're locked), click the cashew on the right side of the panel, and you'll be able to drag and easily rearrange the items.

so, how should the official kde 4.1.2 be merged ?

emerge kde-meta ???

what does this comment in the guide mean?

Note: This method is provided to ease the transition to the new sets. There will be no meta ebuilds for KDE 4.2.

I think it means you (like me) will have to transition to 'sets'. I'm not quite sure how this is going to work for me here at the moment. I'll cross that bridge when I come to it.

i have a couple problems with kde3 while 4 is installed
1. konqueror is missing buttons on the main toolbar forward, back, home, etc the only one showing are the refresh, stop, zoom in/out buttons. even after i restore the defaults on all toolbars and restart kde the problem persists.

opening quick launch applets on kicker opens in dolphin instead of konqueror. (same thing happens with the media device applet)

and a couple of kde4 things start in the background ( kded4 and kdeinit4) from what i can tell just those two.

as for kde4 itself the only thing i can tell that might be some kind of bug is that none of the widgets on the add widgets window have any description. everything else i have a problem with appears to be with features the aren't implemented yet.

personally i am waiting for khotkeys to be completed since it looks very basic right now and seems to lack what kde3 has, and kde4 ports of my favorite apps. namely ktorrent which the kde4 version is already in portage, kaffeine and kplayer according to the homepage of the last one at least
the first kde4 port has been relaesed. an the kaffeine devs are working on their kde4 port.

but from what i have seen i expect great things from kde4 when all it gets more features implemented.

thanks for all the great work. while i may not use kde4 now i will keep it installed to see how well it plays with kde3 installed.

I have the same problems with Konqueror in KDE 3. Really f*cking annoying if you ask me and I'm not clear why/how that could happen. I'm also annoyed that starting any program from the command line results in the KDE 4 version starting by default instead of kde 3.

I am not shure how an install via metapackages will work out. I used one (but not kde-meta) and it gave me an incomplete system without sound. I suggest you install it using the new sets. To do this, download the ones you like from
http://git.overlays.gentoo.org/gitweb/? ... ;hb=master
And place them in /etc/portage/sets
You can then install KDE 4.1.2 by typing "emerge @kdebase-4.1" (or any other set, declared by "@").

Kidov · Post by **Kidov** » Sun Oct 12, 2008 12:16 pm

How can I remove kde4 completely? Gentoo KDE4.1 guide tells me to

Code: Select all

emerge -C @kde-4x
# cd /path/to/our/overlay/
# emerge -C $(find ./ -name \*.ebuild |sed -e "s:.ebuild::" -e "s:./::" |awk -F'/' '{print "="$1"/"$3}')

but this doesn't work. I installed KDE4.1 using portage - instead of any overlays...

Tolstoi · Post by **Tolstoi** » Sun Oct 12, 2008 12:35 pm

I found a way to autologin. Use Alt+F2 to launch the Run Command window and type "kdesu systemsettings" which lets you change things in the systemsettings in administrator mode. Then go to "advanced" and "login manager" and change. It's like in 3.5 only harder to find.

This is odd that we must take some specific action to have sets for KDE4 - I followed the tutorial to upgrade to KDE 4 and tried to use sets, as you can imagine it couldn't find any sets. I was somewhat stumped at this but was still able to simply do a world update and get KDE 4.1.2 (without sound I presume for the same reason as above - fixed easily enough but still....), I don't see why we sound have to do anything more then an emerge --sync and just have access to these sets. Is this the future plan? If we need to go out of our way to grab these set files it breaks the smoothness of portage I must say.......The tutorial should probably be updated to reflect this fact.

reavertm · Post by **reavertm** » Sun Oct 12, 2008 5:23 pm

As soon as sets naming scheme is resolved, KDE4 sets will appear in portage asap, so far there's no better way than to grab them from kde-testing overlay manually afaik. So yes - using sets is definitely in the plan - metapackages are to be dropped soon.

paulj · Post by **paulj** » Sun Oct 12, 2008 7:54 pm

I am working through the guide, and so far have had the following issues:

qt4 blocked the emerge of latest qt4 version - uninstalled the original version (previously had kde 4.0.5 running)
qca-ossl failed to compile as qt4 was not installed. qt4-core was the next file to install. I installed qt4 using the @qt-split set.
Now I have a block on phonon:
Code: Select all
```
[blocks B     ] media-sound/phonon ("media-sound/phonon" is blocking x11-libs/qt-phonon-4.4.2)
[blocks B     ] x11-libs/qt-phonon:4 ("x11-libs/qt-phonon:4" is blocking media-sound/phonon-4.2.0)
```
Only qt-phenon is installed, having been installed with @qt-split. I am reluctant to uninstall it, although that may be the correct decision. emerge -C is telling me that qt-phenon is part of @qt-split, and therefore shouldn't be uninstalled.

Has anyone else had this problem, or can anyone advise the best way to proceed?

TIA
Paul

edit: emerge -aC qt-phonon will not allow me to uninstall it as it is part of @qt-split

Just either remove qt-phonon from qt-split set or unmerge qt-split set - you don't need whole set installed - packages already are depending on particular qt components (like qt-gui, qt-core etc)
