November 2004 Archives

You may have noticed the "Recent Commits" stuff on the left side of the page; you'll see that there's a "KDE/Mac" one as well. Yes, I am working on KDE/Mac again. ;)

You can see the subversion repository, it's basically a container for all the support stuff KDE wants, and the things from the previous CVS repo.

The goal is to push patches to KDE HEAD as quickly as possible, so I'm not gonna bother tracking the real KDE trees in here, I'll just keep patches. Stay tuned, I'll let you know when I've got something useful. =)

The KMail fix is in the latest unstable kdepim3 -- this was one of the last blockers for me to start considering moving a modern KDE to stable (yay!)

There are a few other minor bugs, but nothing that matters too terribly much. Hopefully soon I can move that monstrocity over.

Whoohoo!

Got lots more to update you on as far as Fink changes...

• lots of KDE updates (including KOffice)
• bugfixes to a couple of 10.2-gcc3.3 packages (xscreensaver, daemonic, vim)
• new bash-completion (20041017)
• fixes to base-files
• new distcc (2.18.1)
• new libidn (0.5.10)
• reworked the Fink RSS news feed to validate with i18n
• new kxmleditor (1.1.3)

I'm testing a fix for kmail in kdepim3 right now (also, an update to libmal), and when I'm done with that, I'm caught up with most of the fink stuff that really matters to me, so I can start crackin' on KDE/Mac again. Woot!

Minor updates and Tiger fixes for a number of packages:

• libmath++
• wv2
• KDE
• automake 1.9.3 (and updated automake* and libtool14 from 10.3 to 10.2-gcc3.3)
• glib2 (tiger fix)
• libtiff (tiger fix)
• tetex (tiger fix)
• graphviz (update and tiger fix)

I'm slowly working my way through being able to build KDE on tiger with gcc4. Most of the issues I've run into have been very minor, let's hope it stays that way. ;)

First, if you're a U.S. citizen, get out there and vote!

Second, been doing a lot of work getting things cleaned up package-wise in Fink. I've worked through a lot of bugs and am doing final testing on fixes for the KDE packages that some folks have had problems with.

Coming down the pipe:

• more tiger fixes
• PostgreSQL 8.0 (beta) + PostGIS
• KDE/Mac work
• ???
• PROFIT!
