header files for qt

2001-01-17 Thread Ivan E. Moore II
ok... just to make sure that folks don't have problems with the .h files 
from the tools/ section of QT, I've modified how they are handled..this should
solve the problems that were reported earlier and yet still allow apps that
need those files to compile.  I'm uploading fixed packages to Debian currently
that also contain some upstream fixes for printing and i18n.

I'll get potato packages done soon.

if we were to follow this we would not have uic in the libqt package...the
header files are part of the tools section of libqt and are most definatly part
of the libqt2.2-dev package.

Re: kde and debian

2001-01-17 Thread Alan W. Irwin
Since you are new to Debian, I will add a bit more to what Thibaut said.

(1) Look carefully at www.debian.org for install instructions.  There is
great background material there to help you with Debian.  Also, O'Reilly has
an on-line book for Debian newbies.  It is dated, but still a big help.

(2) Like Thibaut, I also use dselect rather then apt-get.  But remember to
use the apt method for dselect!  That is the first dselect menu item.

(3) Once you have your /etc/apt/sources.list to your liking, (following
Thibaut's suggestion for KDE2, and the instructions at www.debian.org for
the rest of what you will need in /etc/apt/sources.list) then use the second
menu item under dselect to update your packages.  Who knows what versions of
the software that cheapbytes gave you?  But a package update (to potato
which most of us use here) and subsequent install (4th dselect menu item)
will bring you into conformance with potato.  If the 3rd menu item on
dselect shows you lots of local packages after such an update and install,
then it is possible that cheapbytes gave you something newer than potato
such as the testing=woody distribution of Debian.  I believe that will
also work fine with KDE2, but I have no personal experience yet.

Sry, package is libqt2.2-dev actually and is latest from kde.tdyc.com 
(Potato).

Problem with libqt2 package

2001-01-17 Thread Hasso Tepper
In directory /usr/lib/qt2/include there is a lot of header files that should 
not be there. I had problem with it today when tried to compile Aethera. In 
qt's include directory there was mainwindow.h file and it clashed with the 
MainWindow class in the Aethera source tree.

mainwindow.h in qt's include directory is from qt-designer probably and I'm 
sure that it's place is not there. Qt's include directory should contain only 
include files from qt library, IMHO.

Ivan?

I installed kde2 a few days ago and it works very good.

ftp://ftp.de.debian.org/debian stable main contrib non-free
http://kde.tdyc.com/debian potato main crypto optional

use both adresses, so you'll find automaticaly the dependencies for kde

> I am using apt-get install task-kde

I used dselect and have chosen the package task-kde
It was installed with all its dependencies.

off course

good luck

  You do not tell enough for us to help. What did you put in your 
sources.list to get KDE packages ? You should have :

deb http://kde.tdyc.com/debian potato main optional crypto

  Moreover, do not install task-kde and task-kde-devel. The former is for 
another version of KDE (the 2.1, not released yet) and shouldn't be there, 
and the latter has a typo in its dependencies, so it cannot be installed.
  You will have to select the kde packages one by one. Or go into dselect, 
choose task-kde in order to have most KDE packages selected, and then 
unchoose task-kde... Then do the same with task-kde-devel. As you prefer.

kde and debian

2001-01-17 Thread paul taylor
I installed debian 3 weeks ago and cannot get kde downloaded. I get a
broken package error message. Without kde linus is useless to me.
is there any place where I can get this?

I am using apt-get install task-kde 

all I get is broken package

I have the Cd from cheapbytes for kde. Is this menu driven?? can it be
installed without a manual??

thank you

 I was not !. Now I am, and it works fine with:
