Debian KDE 3 packages using a different kde_htmldir
Hi, ( i'm not sure if this is the debian kde development list, or if it's more of a user list, so please refer me to the right place if this isn't the place for this ) The only Debian kdelibs patch, kdelibs/debian/patches/kdelibs.dirs.diff changes KGlobals to only look for html resources that are named $prefix/share/doc/kde/HTML ( and changes some cgi-bin search path too.. ). This patch breaks the documentation of all third party KDE applications, since these packages ( at least those that use the standard KDE build system to install docs ), install their documentation in $prefix/share/doc/HTML, and this is never searched by kio_help, even when KDEDIRS is set properly. So my question is: Wtf is this patch intended to fix, and why does it not make sure that people installing third party kde apps from source can still read the documentation.. Basically, I see three ways to fix this problem: 1 remove the patch. This would probably also mean some work to make the docs install in the proper place again.. 2 fix the patch, to make sure it *also* searches in the old place 3 keep the patch, and fix the kde build system to make sure that a 3rd party source package properly detects where it should install its documentation.

Re: Debian KDE 3 packages using a different kde_htmldir
Hi, While perhaps related to debian, and packaging, I'd like to add that third party KDE-based apps also seem unable to locate other files, such as .ui files, which locate themselves in /usr/local/kde/share/apps/appname. Even though compiled locally, the apps themselves can't then find these files. I had to move these to my own ~/.kde/share/apps/appname as the other one doesn't appear to be searched properly. (JuK, for those interested, is broken if compiled on Debian with these packages, and segfaults when trying to play ANYTHING, until I fixed it as described above) Cheers, David On Tuesday 13 May 2003 18:39, Dominique Devriese wrote: Hi, ( i'm not sure if this is the debian kde development list, or if it's more of a user list, so please refer me to the right place if this isn't the place for this ) The only Debian kdelibs patch, kdelibs/debian/patches/kdelibs.dirs.diff changes KGlobals to only look for html resources that are named $prefix/share/doc/kde/HTML ( and changes some cgi-bin search path too.. ).

qt3-designer crashes
When I start qt3-designer from the kde menu, the spash screen appears and a couple of modules are loaded, but then the splashscreen disappears and the app appears to have crashed. But if I start it from konsole with designer it starts. Whats up with that? Using standart packages from sid, on Asus A1300 laptop.

Gnome2.2 backport for Debian Woody
Hi, After installing gnome 2.2 (http://mirrors.evilgeniuses.org.uk/debian/backports/woody gnome2.2/) Kde 3 apps doesnt look nice at all, they start but windows are very big (extreme!) and no fonts are showing (no text beside icons etc). Starting kde gives me a desktop with _ instead of text for the icons. I'm using sarge, gnome is my standard world but it would be nice to use some kde apps like Kile. I have tried to compile my own kde apps but it is the same. The kde packages are from http://download.kde.org/stable/latest/Debian I have tried Karolinas, debian official, same problem. -- «=-=» /* Henrik */ GNU - Free Software (free as in freedom, not as in free beer) «=-=»
Re: KDE Menu Items missing?
Packages from the official Debian apt mirrors should be automatically added. You could try logging out and back in and see if that does it for you. (Or, if you're impatient, you could modify your taskbar properties, thus restarting Kicker). I can't be of much more help unless you say what app and where you got it from. --- Lewis Donofrio [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: How do I get the kde 'start menu' to reflect apt-getted applications that are installed on the machine? __ Lewis [EMAIL PROTECTED] College of Literature, Science, Arts 1007 East Huron, Room 201, BetaID:243340 Cell: (734) 323-8776 Ann Arbor,MI 48104-1690 www.umich.edu/~donofrio Fax: (734) 647-8333 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.
