Crashes
by Steve Grubb 04 Aug '20

04 Aug '20

Hello, I was curious about something. KDE has its own crash handling system. How does this community track any metrics around code stability if upstream gets reports? Kontact has segfaulted 20 times on me today. Each time it says it cannot generate a bug report. Abrtd does not seem to pick up anything. Shouldn't it? How does this community track when a recent update suddenly starts making things crash? Kontact was fine 3 weeks ago. I updated today (3 weeks of patches) and its crashing all the time to the point its unusable. It won't generate a bug report, abrtd seems not to notice either. -Steve

nntp (aka, usenet) client in kde?
by Gene Smith 08 Feb '20

08 Feb '20

I currently use t-bird with an nntp account pointing to gmane to read this list and sereral others. Does kde have an nntp client program of any sort? I don't see it as a possible new account type in kmail. Also, search with kpackagekit yields nothing with "usenet" or "nntp" that is kde specific. -gene

KDE Telepathy Bonjour account: This IM Account cannot be created - a Telepathy Connection Manager named 'salut' is missing or it cannot handle protocol 'local-xmpp'. Please try installing salut with your package manager.
by Dennis Schridde 10 Jun '19

Hi! I was trying to setup a Bonjour (local XMPP) account in KDE Plasma System Settings for KDE Telepathy. In `System Settings > Online Accounts > Create`, I clicked "Bonjour" in the list on the right. This action was answered with an error dialogue box: "This IM Account cannot be created - a Telepathy Connection Manager named 'salut' is missing or it cannot handle protocol 'local-xmpp'. Please try installing salut with your package manager." However, `telepathy-salut` is already installed on my machine. Does anyone have an idea how to debug this, or where I would find the actual error message that led to this? I am using Fedora 27 KDE, with telepathy-salut currently being at version 0.8.1 (release 12.fc27), telepathy-mission control at version 5.16.4 (epoch 1, release 4.fc27) and ktp-accounts-kcm at version 17.12.1(release 1.fc27). Best regards, Dennis

time to orphan/retire unmaintained uncommon kde4 language bindings?
by Rex Dieter 28 May '19

28 May '19

Looking over some broken deps reports, I came across some old packages: kdebindings smokeqt smokekde qyoto (csharp/mono) kimono (csharp/mono) ruby-qt ruby-korundum perl-Qt Of these, the only one that's not a pure leaf package is perl-Qt (debconf- kde depends on it). any comment or objection to considering orphaning most (all minus smokeqt/perl-Qt) or all of these ? -- Rex

Emacs key binding in KDE Plasma 5?
by Sherman Grunewagen 21 May '19

21 May '19

Just moved from Fedora 21 to F25. Under F21 I had a file ~/.gtkrc-2.0 which contained gtk-key-theme-name = "Emacs" This enabled basic Emacs cursor motion keyboard commands in text input boxes throughout KDE, Firefox, &c. (Outside of input boxes, KDE shortcuts ruled.) How can I get this same behaviour for Plasma 5 w/in F25? From reading around, I've created ~/.config/gtk-3.0/settings.ini and inserted [Settings] gtk-key-theme-name = Emacs in this empty file. This has given the desired result in Firefox and Thunderbird, but not w/in arbitrary text boxes in KDE (e.g. Alt-F2). The ~/.gtkrc-2.0 file is still intact, by the way. It seems to have no effect. Any ideas? -Sherman

KDE rebuild for RHEL8
by Troy Dawson 09 May '19

09 May '19

I know that RHEL8 isn't out yet, but I'd like to run KDE on my RHEL8 Beta. Even if it's just the basic KDE desktop. I'm fine building it myself, but I'm having a hard time figuring out the rebuild flow. If I (or anyone) were to rebuild KDE for RHEL8, where do I start? and then what's next? There are base QT5 packages in RHEL8 beta. Do you think I would need to rebuild QT5? Or just start with RHEL8's QT5 packages. Thanks Troy

qDebug output in Qt Creator
by Syam Krishnan 01 May '19

01 May '19

Hi I am having trouble getting qDebug() output displayed in the 'application output' tab in Qt Creator. I am aware of the need to explicitly enable Qt message logging and have the following in my ~/.config/QtProject/qtlogging.ini: [Rules] *.debug=true qt.*.debug=false But even with this, Qt Creator does not show any qDebug() messages. I am getting these messages if I run the application from Konsole. Just not in Qt creator. Any Idea on what can be done to fix this? I'm on Fedora 29, Qt 5.11.3, Qt Creator v4.7.2. Thanks and regards, Syam

Any plan to update to Qt 5.12.3?
by 李瑞彬 23 Apr '19

23 Apr '19

Qt 5.12.3 was released last week. Any plan to make an update? Though 5.12.2/5.12.3 does not change much. I tested local build of 5.12.3 by simple version bumping of the spec file. -robin
