kdedirs ugly hack patch to kstandarddirs.cpp
I noticed that the only way it seems to have more than one dir by default in KDE that is a prefix is to use $KDEDIRS. However, we don't really want Debian users to have to mess with that. So I was trying to find a way to have both /usr and /usr/local usable for KDE and found that there isn't a way currently in kstandarddirs.cpp to read the KDEDIRS from kderc. Right now there is a hack (ifdef) to hardcode in $exec_prefix if one is set so that not setting KDEDIR/S works. So I am going to hack up an ugly patch to it to force looking in /usr/local as well for Debian. Yes, I know its damn ugly. :( Is there anyone here that knows kdelibs well enough to come up with a clean solution to this for KDE 3.2 (and maybe 3.1 if time permits)? Ideally it would possible to read a kdedirs, dir_prefix, or something to that effect from /etc/kderc so that it doesn't need to be hardcoded into the source.

I'm doing the same here :-) for builds that use Xfree 4.3. Otherwise we're forcing anyone to check for kcontrol.install and remove that stuff for builds on unstable if he wants to get KDE from CVS. The fact that we know you can use this when you build against xfree in expermental doesn't mean anyone else does, plus you won't find bugs in X this way.

What's current status of KDE in Sid?
Looking at the debian kde wiki page, it's ambiguous what the status is. 1) There is no status indicator. 2) There are instructions for installing for sid, which would seem to imply that it is available. 3) An rc bug (qt-x11-free) is mentioned, but this doesn't necessarily imply that a kde _install_ would fail. 4) latest info indicates a 68k build problem, but, again, this doesn't necessarily imply that a kde install would fail (for my system: intel x86) From the debian kde mailing list I see: Re: Big trouble with libqt3 From: Linus Gasser http://lists.debian.org/debian-kde/2003/debian-kde-200310/msg00019.html reading the rest of the list you can see that there are quite some troubles for now with kde in unstable. Personally I'm running kde on stable, and it works very well. On my pentium system w/ a minimal Sid + minimal gnome (gnome installed cause kde wouldn't install) I get: # apt-get install kde-core Reading Package Lists... Done Building Dependency Tree... Done Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming. Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that the package is simply not installable and a bug report against that package should be filed. The following information may help to resolve the situation: The following packages have unmet dependencies: kde-core: Depends: kdebase but it is not going to be installed E: Broken packages =Questions: 1) Can I somehow get or force to get a minimal working KDE system on my Sid now? 2) Perhaps by pinning or something installing from testing, or stable? 3) If there's no way to get a minimal Sid install working right now, what is the eta for when KDE will be installable into Sid? (And, what are the major tasks needed for that to happen?) Thanks for all the great work! :) PS: Putting the ETA on the debian kde wiki would be a wonderful addition to that page! :) __ Do you Yahoo!? The New Yahoo!
