Thought so, I'll try to find the time this weekend to read up on package building. I need a 64bit package for the workstation anyway. :) > I created a new test release and corresponding .deb a minute ago.

Now the plugins can be configured through 'Settings -> Configure RKWard -> Plug-Ins'. A 'sudo updatedb' followed by 'locate all.pluginmap' gives '/usr/share/kde4/apps/rkward/all.pluginmap', adding it there makes rkward work fine. Also the issues around the missing editor/script files are gone. But of course it would be nicer without the configuration issues, so let's see... > Could you please try the following steps, and write back on the results: > > In your /etc/apt/sources.list add this line: > deb-src http://rkward.sourceforge.net/debian ./ > Now go to a temporary directory and enter: > apt-get source rkward > This should pull you the 0.5.0c-test3 sources and build scripts.

If it would not fail (no, I did not forget apt-get update :) E: Bau-Abhängigkeiten für rkward konnten nicht erfüllt werden. Finally enabling the deb-src entries (ok) and the backports (argh) solved this. Backports were not necessary for the deb, you provided. I noticed that cmake was updated, so that was probably the cause. > Two additional ones: > sudo apt-get install dpkg-dev > sudo apt-get install fakeroot > These are needed to create debian packages.

During rkward start there are some messages about various window_show_ functions or whatever, but it seems to work fine.

Since Intrepid it is found in '~/.kde/share/config/', KDE3 was dropped for releases following 8.04 from Ubuntu. > > Regards > Thomas And thanks to your step-by-step instructions, I could also build the 64bit package for my workhorse (intrepid 8.10, kde 4.2.1, R 2.8.1-1intrepid0 from Cran) . Works fine also.
