Do what I just did if you're using woody (as I presume you are, it's already in unstable) - pull the QT 3.0.5 source from unstable, and compile it on your woody system. It works perfectly for me so far as I can tell. I also removed the mysql/pgsql/odbc crap too as I'm unlikely to ever use it.

Get the three source packages off http://packages.debian.org and unpack with the command: dpkg-source -x foo.dsc Make any changes necessary to debian/control or debian/rules, and as regular user run: dpkg-buildpackage -uc -us -rfakeroot Have a cup of tea, and hey presto, you have woody qt packages. I just mentioned in my package descriptions what I'd done, to differentiate it from the stock debian packages. Likewise, I've been busy compiling i686 optimized kde3 packages in the same manor, it's really dead easy :) No more packageless files scattered everywhere.

kdm trouble
Yo, as most people here (no? :) ) I'm running kde 3.0.2, and I try to use kdm *hrm*. The problem is, as soon as it starts up, a file /etc/nologin is made which seems to prohibit normal mortal users to log in. Moreover, it kills all the console login screens. So I can only log in via kdm and as root. And then delete that file, logout again, login as normal user. I can only get my consoles back by doing an init 3 as root. The most rational solution would be to just dump kdm and start x with startx -- :pickyournumber . But I need kdm, since I also use a small p133 to remote boot to this box - so it needs a display manager, so I need kdm, period :-) If anyone knows a solution or a workaround, reply. thx. -- Frank Van Damme homepage: www.student.kuleuven.ac.be/~m9917684 jabber (=IM): [EMAIL PROTECTED]

KDE debs building
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hi, as some of you got to know until now, I switched from SuSE to Debian this week - - and directly hit the fact that building debs from CVS would work best for me to have it working the right way (tm). Now, I got into working with Chris lately and we try to fix the issues one by one soon now so that everyone can build debs himself but more important, provide debs for KDE constantly that work, where also most importantly betas, RC's and finals are provided by the day that the packages are build and work optimal on Debian. The other thing is that third party apps need to be compiled if you like to use them. Until now several people do that for the apps they like to run or that they are developing using debian as their development platform. The problem for the users is that the deb lines for sources.list are spread all over and there is no central way of getting the newest apps through debs for people that are not necessarily developers like we are. The other thing is that as developers, just doing a make install would work but that usually messes up our systems, especially as KDE has /usr as its prefix on debian. So it would be the best if we could somehow collect our resources and schedule building debs and providing them in a central place. I talked with Dirk Müller already and some other guys that I use to work with at KDE and we should provide that possibility through KDE on ftp.kde.org. Wether that will work out just depends on how many people would volunteer to participate. If you're interested, let's come together to finally end this messy system where there's certain problems with building debs for us and the KDE users using debian, it would surely make things a *lot* easier if we organize ourselves and coordinate doing things efficiently.

Fwd: Re: KDE debs building
Hi Ralf, Sorting the 'mess'of KDE packages on Debian will be a very nice achievement. I would just like to point a specific problem for the KDE translators. When, like now, we are working on KDE 3.1, we need to have a CVS version of KDE to check the new applications and see in context the strings to be translated. Translators are generally not developpers, have slow computers, and not the skill to compile from CVS. For our use, Macolu (http://matthieu.robin.free.fr/linux/) has created some debs of KDE CVS version that can be installed side by side with a stable KDE in /opt/kde3cvs. You have to create a special user to use these debs and can use on the same box a stable and a experimental KDE. I think it would be nice and very useful to have a system like that that can create experimental snapshots debs of KDE (with names like kdebase-CVS, etc...) and generate stable debs when a new stable version comes out. By this way, Debian could become the reference distribution for the people (artists, translators, people writing documentation, bughunters, etc.) that need bleeding edge KDE but are unable or unwilling to compile from CVS. Cheers, Charles -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.kde-france.org

Re: minimal debian installation as a DSL router
I'm planning to use a small debian installation as a router for dsl. Can you give me hints about valuable sources of information for such an issue? (in english or german language) I've tried the fli4l project which is really great, but in the end it lets some of the potential of my hardware unnused and therefore I want to try debian. I'm using debian right now as a router/server. Works great. If you are experienced and have linux, then either use jigdo or the xfs-net install cds from debian. If you want something quick and easy try the libranet cd. I'm willing to answer more detailed questions, but basically, download and burn iso, put cd into computer, and boot from cd. The questions are fairly easy, if you know about linux and networking. If you can't download a cd, then buy one from cheapbytes. Fred Ollinger

Re: KDE debs building

We'll be glad to take any patches and put them into CVS that would help automate the build process. I myself have a DSL line so up/download is not an issue for me; I could also use the 2mbit line in the company I work for now. Also, like Charles de Miramon pointed out, we should take care of daily or at least weekly builds from CVS that can be installed side by side of a stable environment for the translators and doc writers who need a recent KDE from CVS but can't/won't want to go through the development process. Ralf Ralf Nolden wrote: Hi, Hi [snip] /me has to agree. I talked with Dirk Müller already and some other guys that I use to work with at KDE and we should provide that possibility through KDE on ftp.kde.org. Wether that will work out just depends on how many people would volunteer to participate. I'd like to help. I build most of the debs on regular basis (each weekend) but unfortunately i'm seriously limited bandwidth-wise. I can provide patches to compile my favorite parts of kde on woody, though. Another thing is that qt-copy packaging in cvs is abandoned. I have working Qt 3.1 beta 1 mt packages, and i'll probably extend packaging to build non-mt versions, too. If someone could apply to cvs, i'd be glad :). If you're interested, let's come together to finally end this messy system where there's certain problems with building debs for us and the KDE users using debian, it would surely make things a *lot* easier if we organize ourselves and coordinate doing things efficiently. I'm definitely interested, but need someone to push my patches to cvs and to build debs for download. I can't work in kde cvs (i use cvsup due to internet connection issues) and have no write access anyway. If you are interested, i have mostly-working set of scripts to make building kde debs easier. This mostly consists of: ./build package something breaks, fix it ./build2 package (will continue where build stopped) ah, it completed this time (cd .. ./apt-archive) ./mkdiff package (will create patch from your changes) apt-get update apt-get upgrade (or apt-get install if you compile for first time) It needs quite a lot of space on harddrive and isn't particularly smart, but it works for me (tm). mkdiff doesn't work with qt-copy right now, but i'll fix that asap. Thanks for your attention and for volunteering :-) Thanks for nice initiative.
