KDE 5_1501 ========== This is going to be KDE 5 for Slackware-current, composed of Frameworks 5.6.0, Plasma 5.1.2 and Applications 14.12.1. Compared to Applications 14.12.0, the Applications 14.12.1 adds LTS releases of kdelibs, kdepimlibs, kdepim-runtime, kdepim and kde-workspace. Note that there is still a lot of KDE 4 stuff in here, which is necessary to support all the Applications that have not yet been ported to KDE Frameworks 5. The Applications 15.04 (march 2015) release should offer a lot more KF5 ports. Preliminary build procedure (not verified 100% yet): ---------------------------------------------------- - (crude) get rid of Slackware's KDE: removepkg /var/log/packages/*-4.10.5-* - build all the deps using "updates.SlackBuild" script in the "deps/" directory - note that extra-cmake-modules is required here as well as when building the frameworks, so I just copied it from frameworks to deps. - I removed akonadi-qt5 from the built deps because it won't be used until there is a kdepimlibs-framework, and currently it causes kdepimlibs-4.14 to pick up Qt5 dependencies making its build fail - logoff/login to activate Qt5 profile script. - build all the KDE 4 stuff in the "kde/" directory, using "./KDE.SlackBuild kde libs kdebase:nepomuk-core kdepimlibs kdebase kdebindings kdebase:kde-workspace k depim extragear" - check that everything built correctly - build the remaining KDE 5 stuff in the "kde/" directory, using "./KDE.SlackBui ld frameworks plasma plasma-extra polkit-kde applications" - check that everything built correctly - build kdei BUILD LOG FOR PLASMA-EXTRA: TODO: sddm-qt5 (no longer adds an /etc/sddm.conf so we need to generate one in its doinst.sh) BUILD LOG FOR APPLICATIONS: TODO: kdoctools (needs a fix for its CMake search for path to "/usr/share/xml/docbook/xml-dtd-4.5/docbookx.dtd", which causes a build error in kde-dev-scripts later on) TODO: kde-dev-scripts (needs a fixed "/usr/share/kf5/kdoctools/customization/dtd/kdex.dtd" in kdoctools) SKIP: libkface (needs opencv, so this will get skipped due to my reservations with it) DONE: kdeartwork (missed kde-workspace, will be fixed in the next iteration) DONE: kdewebdev (seems like tidy added the KDE.SlackBuild parameter to the path of its header file) DONE: kalgebra (needs patch to link properly to ncurses) DONE: kanagram (needed libkeduvocdocument, was missing due to build order issue) DONE: khangman (needed libkeduvocdocument, was missing due to build order issue) DONE: parley (needed libkeduvocdocument, was missing due to build order issue) ============================================================================== Eric Hameleers / alien at slackware dot com / 11-jan-2015
