Bug#982973: qtmultimedia-opensource-src: FTBFS in test: tst_QVideoFrame::image(64x64 NV12) Received a fatal error

[Ritesh Raj Sarraf]

Source: qtmultimedia-opensource-src
Version: 5.15.2-2
Severity: serious
Tags: ftbfs
Justification: fails to build from source (but built successfully in the past)

Dear Maintainer,

During a rebuild of the package on a Bullseye derivative, it was seen
that the package fails to build from source. It fails in one of the
tests, for which the failure snippet is mentioned below. Please also
note that the same failure (and full build log) is also available on the
Reproducible Builds.

I should emphasize why I use `startx` for my desktop session. Because
the recommended login manager for KDE, i.e. SDDM, does not allow root-
less Xorg.

I see there's a bug report on the upstream page for it but nobody has
bothered to work on this integration bug (for years).

I realized that I cannot wait for another decade for such integration
issues to be fixed, nor can I live with too many glitches with Wayland,
and neither can I dedicate my skilled time to fixing these integration
issues myself; so just live with whatever best can be made out.

:-)

Happy holidays to all.

There are many many minor nuances if you talk about a Desktop
integration with Wayland. But overall it has improved than what it was
earlier.

I still find not having the SSH/GNUPG agent running under Wayland, as a
blocker and keep switching back to using `startx`

I recollect to have used this way back when in KDE3 days. But it has been so
long that I can't be very sure. But from what I recollect, this was a very nice 
feature to be able to browse all doc-base registered documentation through 
khelpcenter.

I too have been relying on Clementine. While it is not that actively
maintained, but it still is very featureful.

There were some playback glitches that were resolved in the past 6
months. What glitches are you facing ?

That was my impression too, but it does not seem to be working, at
least on Debian. Perhaps the Debian KDE Team (CCed) can confirm if it
is supposed to work with KDE5/Qt5, or not.

To me this looks like caribou daemon, which is supposed to pop-up the
soft keyboard, is mesbehaving. This message was seen when running
kwrite (kde5) which obviously will trigger the textinput field to pop-
up caribou keyboard.

Oh! Thanks for pointing that out Samuel. Those tests are working fine.
But not when in general use.

From the logs below, it looks like caribou is the cuplprit. :-(
It says that the daemon was activated, but no soft keyboard shows up.

redshift plasmoid

[Ritesh Raj Sarraf]

Since some of the recent updates in Jessie, redshift-plasmoid does not
auto change the color when switching activities. Has anyone else come
across the problem ?

This is an unfortunate state and happens because of policykit not
finding systemd running as the active init.

Even though you have systemd-shim installed, it doesn't seem to provide
all abstracted functionalities that systemd provides. This is my
understanding so far.

If you use systemd, things work.

Bug#764511: polkit-kde-1: cannout mount device

If I am not on systemd, and am trying to mount an external device, I get the 
following error

That is weird because when I manually ran pkexec, it ran fine.

Do you have policykit installed ? I presume no, because it depends on 
libpam-systemd, which in turn depends on systemd, where as you are using 
sysvinit-core.


This is the unfortunate state we are in, post the decision to have 
systemd as the default. I wish it was the default and not the one and 
only dominant. The possibility to have things functional, without it, is 
not true anymore.

Re: Bug#717808: plasma-desktop: Panel freezes when disconnecting power and network

[Ritesh Raj Sarraf]

On Friday 25 July 2014 05:45 PM, Stefanie Dargel wrote:

Dear Maintainers,


I'm plagued by a bug that forces me to reboot my laptop frequently. I
hope I'm filing the bug to the right package, feel free to reassign.

The problem happens when I undock the laptop, which causes the laptop
to disconnect from the AC power and the network simultanously.
What happens is that the panel freezes. I.e. it becomes unresponsive
to mouse clicks, so I can't use it to configure networks, switch
windows, launch applications, i.e. the standard stuff one has it there
to do. I can use other features such as Alt-TABbing through windows,
and the mouse and keyboard can be used on other apps.


At times I have run into this temporary problem. I haven't spent time 
nailing where the problem is, but from the symptoms it looks to be a 
problem where the kernel goes briefly into blocking mode.


In this case, it could be the name resolver. The moment the network is 
out, anything that was depending on name resolution has to wait. The 
reason being because during the state change (where the network was 
lost) there is no new record to look at.


The same may happen when you have a network device mapped. The undock 
event terminated the current network, and initiated a new network 
request. Depending on the time it takes, till then, the kernel has no 
choice but to go into wait.


Again, this is something I just have guessed so far looking at similar 
behavior on my box. I have not spent time gathering the data yet.

This way, users can use a alternative cron implementation.



I looked into this some time back when I was exploring systemd-cron, 
which provides cron-daemon.


In my opinion, having this hard dependency is good. Otherwise either 
systemd-cron should stop claiming that it can Provide cron-daemon. 
Because it does not support all cron features.

Bug#733026: kde-workspace-bin: kscreenlocker_greet -- unable to unlock session, unable to type password.

[Ritesh Raj Sarraf]

Package: kde-workspace-bin
Version: 4:4.11.9-1
Followup-For: Bug #733026

I have a similar problem and some more input to provide.

I spent my entire Sunday trying to nail down the problem but not much
luck. :-(


In my case, I have the problem with the Plasma Overlay Screen Locker.
That, if enabled (i.e. locked), the same symptoms show up. The desktop
cannot sense mouse clicks or key presses.

But here's the dirty part. Before concluding a bug, I tried it on a
different (clean) user. And there, the issue was not seen.
Which means, there's some old setting cruft over the years that is now
conflicting. Unfortunately there's nothing in the error messages or the
logs.

For now, I have resorted to using the Simple Locker screen locker
type. That one does not have any issues on my box, under my regular user
account.

KDE has become very intolerant to its own settings that it piles over
the years. I have had 2 unresolved issues so far: RedShift per activity
effective settings and this KDE lock issue


PS: To the bug submitter. You may also want to verify it on a clean user
account. For your bug report, I tried running kscreenlocker_greet
manually and was able to successfully kill it.

Bug#749032: python-kde4: crash in apport-kde

[Ritesh Raj Sarraf]

Package: python-kde4
Version: 4:4.12.2-2+b2
Severity: important

Apport KDE has been crashing for a while (more than a year) with python
kde. I hadn't bothered reporting as Apport is not a priority in Debian
and will always reside in experimental.

But if you have some time, please look into it. I had checked with the
apport developer too and he believes that the problem is with Debian's
python kde4 package. 

FYI, the problem does not occur on apport gtk.

While the crash trace is useless, I'm still attaching it.

Are you using Akonadi ? Is it enabled on your box ?

I don't use it and when I manually start ktp-contactlist, I see a lot of

 I hadn't pushed all of the packaging to alioth so if you'd built from there, 
 there's a slim chance that's the source for your bug. (I just pushed all of 
 the packaging to alioth right now if you want to check).

 Also all of the 0.8.1 components for ktp are now available in the normal 
 repositories. so could you also try the official release of ktp-common-
 internals?

The easiest way to conclude if it is a software problem is to try it as
another, clean, user.

With the other user, I do not see the problem. So it has to do with some
old configuration cruft on my regular account, that's been conflicting.
The issue is not just with KTP but also seen on redshift-plasmoid.

And my guess was correct. KTP now depends on Akonadi.

I still need to figure out why redshift is not working.

 What are you clicking on it?

The icon in the system tray.  If you check the Sytem Tray Settings, it
has an option to activate Instant Messaging Presence in within it.
That icon when clicked, used to open ktp-contactlist.

 For me I launch ktp-contactlist which acts as a traditional main window 
 application if I minimize it I can reopen from the task bar. If I close it, I 
 have to relaunch it to get it back. 

 There's also the plasma contact list, but I haven't used it so I'm not sure 
 how its supposed to work.

So I manually executed ktp-contactlist. But it did not open the window.
Nothing was logged in .xsession-errors. I'll keep looking.

You could start here: https://www.debian.org/Bugs/

The best is to validate if you can reproduce the bugs on your setup.
If yes, further investigate whether it is a packaging bug or a bug in
KDE upstream.

If an upstream bug, check in upstream tracker if there is already a bug
filed. If not filed, file a bug upstream and associate the Debian bug to it.

If it is a packaging bug, please add that detail in the bug report. Over
time you will start fixing the bugs.

network manager and VPN

[Ritesh Raj Sarraf]

This is nothing specific to NM for KDE, but a general question on NM.

How are people using NM and VPN connections ?
VPN connections have a tendency to terminate once in a while, depending
on flakiness on the network, policies etc.

I always wished NM (or Plasma NM) had an option to autoconnect to VPN
for specified network IDs.


To overcome the limitation, for now I have been using NM's dispatcher
framework [1]. Had worked a charm until recently when the new NM
(0.9.8.8) broken. I haven't really had the time to nail down the cause,
hence asking here on how people use NM + VPN.

Yes. But it is unclear on how to handle applications that could be
writing ever growing data.

An email client should open the file 'rw' in /tmp when it is formatting
the email before the final send. But writing an increasing data file,
like a console screen log, in /tmp should be incorrect.

There's no clear guideline on what should go into /tmp/.

 And anyway at the end it was agreed to keep /tmp on disk by default on new 
 installations.

Bug#690360: konsole: temprorary data should go to /var/tmp

[Ritesh Raj Sarraf]

Package: konsole
Version: 4:4.8.4-1
Severity: normal

Given that all are moving in the direction of having /tmp on tmpfs,
should applications be fixed?

From what I recollect from the last discussion on this topic, it was
agreed that /tmp is for temporary files with no guarantee to be
available. For this explanation, there is no breakage currently. 

But the problem lies with most applications that write large amount of
temporary data into /tmp/.
In this case, konsole is logging 6 MiB of log file to /tmp. I think this
is because I have enabled Unlimited Scrolling in konsole's preferenes.
Should this data (and similar candidates from other applications) go into
/var/tmp/ ?

appmenu-qt and plasma-widget-menubar

[Ritesh Raj Sarraf]

Hello Folks (fathi, modax, pino, sune, eshat, and others whose name i
don't recollect right now)

I would like to see appment-qt and plasma-widget-menubar into unstable.
They are already in experimental. Should I go ahead with the upload or
do you want me to hold it ?


This is the dependency list for plasma-widget-menubar:

Maintainer: Debian KDE Extras Team pkg-kde-ext...@lists.alioth.debian.org
Architecture: amd64
Depends: libc6 (= 2.2.5), libdbusmenu-qt2 (= 0.3.2), libgcc1 (=
1:4.1.1), libkdecore5 (= 4:4.3.4), libkdeui5 (= 4:4.3.4), libkio5 (=
4:4.3.4), libplasma3 (= 4:4.4.95), libqjson0 (= 0.7.1), libqt4-dbus
(= 4:4.8), libqt4-network (= 4:4.8), libqt4-svg (= 4:4.8), libqt4-xml
(= 4:4.8), libqtcore4 (= 4:4.8), libqtgui4 (= 4:4.8), libstdc++6 (=
4.1.1)


and this one for appmenu-qt:

Maintainer: Debian KDE Extras Team pkg-kde-ext...@lists.alioth.debian.org
Architecture: amd64
Depends: libc6 (= 2.2.5), libdbusmenu-qt2 (= 0.9.0), libgcc1 (=

4:4.8), libqtgui4 (= 4:4.8), libstdc++6 (= 4.1.1)


With Qt 4.8 in unstable, all the build-deps for appmenu is satisfied.
The same is for the plasma widget.

 Hello,
 
 I'm writing to request sponsorship for RoboJournal, a
 journal/diary program written in Qt and released under GPL3. I'm
 contacting your group because I’ve heard that Debian-KDE also
 handles Qt projects.  There are very few journal/diary tools in
 Debian, so I felt the need to write my own. RoboJournal has been
 under development for about 7 months and allows users to create
 journals on local systems or remotely by using databases to hold
 the entry data.  Although RoboJournal is not a mature app yet,  it
 is stable, usable, and all major bugs in the codebase (as of
 version 0.2) have been fixed. This is the first project that I’ve 
 ever packaged for Linux and I'm relatively new to the process, so I
 hope I’ve done everything correctly.
 

This is good. Most journal software I have explored do not have a
tagging feature. Does Robojournal have it ?
- From the screenshots on the homepage, it does not seem to.

 Package name: robojournal Architectures: i386  and AMD64 License:
 GPL3 Short Description: Free journaling software for everyone 
 Long Description: RoboJournal is a cross-platform journal/diary
 tool written in Qt/C++. Right now, RoboJournal only supports MySQL
 but support for SQLite (and possibly Postgres) will be added in
 future releases. RoboJournal runs on Windows and Linux.

Please provide a link to the full packaging work. Typically the
debian/ changes. When you built, you would have generated .changes and
.dsc file. Easiest way is to upload it to mentors.debian.net and then
provide the link here, requesting for sponsorship.

 Thanks,

It does part of it, i.e. it has an option Send To that can upload to
a variety of services. What it does not do currently is to return the URL.

I yesterday had filed a wishlist for the very same feature. You may

help with lintian errors

[Ritesh Raj Sarraf]

Hi,

Can one of the people on this list help?

I am trying to package appmenu-qt. At the moment, I am getting the
follwoing error:

E: appmenu-qt: pkg-has-shlibs-control-file-but-no-actual-shared-libs
W: appmenu-qt: postinst-has-useless-call-to-ldconfig
W: appmenu-qt: postrm-has-useless-call-to-ldconfig


I do not have any control file, so I'm confused where it is coming from.
I also extracted the built package and did notice that it had a postinst
and postrm script, which I do not have under my packaging folder.

Any ideas?

Ritesh

passive notification system for kde4
 colibri is a passive notification system for KDE4 desktop
 .
 Colibri notifications look lighter and are completely passive:
 they do not provide any buttons. You may or may not like this.
 Since they are completely passive, they smoothly fade away when
 you mouse over them, allowing you to interact with any window behind
them.
 .
 They also do not stack each others: if multiple notifications happen,
 they will be shown one at a time.

It is not an exact equivalent of k4dirstat but something similar.

Thank you Bruce.

I share the same view. After painfully trying kdepim I finally was
able to switch my workflow with Thunderbird. Then, for the web
browser, I have already switched to chromium/iceweasel.

 Maybe, but not because I want to... at this point I see my options
 for that box as: check if KDE-4 can be built without akonadi;
 Oldstable with KDE-3.5.10; Stable + Trinity's KDE-3.5.12; not-KDE
 

As a packager, the kde team shouldn't disable that support.
As a user, I just realized yesterday that I should have used equivs
long back.

Even though I was using TB/Chromium combination for some time, the
stray akonadi processes were just a waste.


aptitude reports that kdepim-runtime is the only caller for
akonadi-server. So the dummy package here helps.

18:58:16 rrs@champaran:/tmp/Debian-Build/Result$ aptitude why
akonadi-server
i   kdepim-runtime Depends akonadi-server (= 1.3)


I tried knocking this off too. But kdepim-runtime is required by many
more than just what is reported here.

18:58:25 rrs@champaran:/tmp/Debian-Build/Result$ aptitude why
kdepim-runtime
i   kbugbuster Depends kdepim-runtime


 Also, the same with Nepomuk. Are people using it or is it just
 sitting disabled in everyone's config?
 
 Disabled as a service in itself, but it still gets started by
 akonadi.  :(
 
 
 AFAICT, ATM: I have no use for the nepomuk/strigi semantic desktop
 stuff; Akonadi is just simply overkill for me, and it doesn't help
 that the box I currently use for email can't afford the
 extra/unnecessary overhead (even if it didn't leave soprano and
 nepomuk processes lying around after a ssh -X host kmail).
 

Here's what I did.

14:07:13 rrs@champaran:~$ dpkg -l | grep -i akonadi
ii  akonadi-server 1.5.3.1-1
  short description; defaults to some wise words
ii  kdepim-runtime 4:4.4.11.1-2
  Runtime components for akonadi-kde
ii  libakonadi-kabc4   4:4.6.5-1
  library for using the Akonadi PIM data server
ii  libakonadi-kcal4   4:4.6.5-1
  library for using the Akonadi PIM data server
ii  libakonadi-kde44:4.6.5-1

ii  libakonadi-kmime4  4:4.6.5-1
  library for using the Akonadi PIM data server
rc  libakonadiprivate1 1.4.0-0r2
  libraries for the Akonadi PIM storage service
ii  libakonadiprotocolinternals1   1.5.3-2
  libraries for the Akonadi PIM storage service
ii  libmicroblog4  4:4.6.5-1
  library for using the Microblog Akonadi Resource


I was able to cut down akonadi installation by almost half. The
libraries couldn't be uninstalled because other kde4 components link
to it.

Create a dummy akonadi-server package with equivs with a version
number greater than the current one in our repository.

Once you do that, you can achieve this:

14:14:33 rrs@champaran:~$ ps aux | grep -i akona
rrs  20444  0.0  0.0   8516   880 pts/3S+   14:16   0:00 grep
- --color=auto -i akona


Up till now, I have not seen any crashes because of akonadi missing,
so we should be good to use kde4 while still avoiding all of akonadi.


Hope that helps.

Are people here using akonadi or any of the tools using the akonadi

Also, the same with Nepomuk. Are people using it or is it just sitting

dolphin as the file manager

[Ritesh Raj Sarraf]

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA512

I have had bad experiences with the new dolphin file manager in KDE, so
thought of asking here.

Have people been using dolphin? I have very frequently seen problem when
trying to copy multi gigabytes of data, the entire desktop to freeze and
the I/O to stall. First impression one gets is that it could be the
linux kernel. But honestly, the linux kernel has the best I/O
performance afaik.

So I initiated the file copy in dolphin and it *crawled*. The mouse
stalled and looked like a freeze. Knowing that it was dophin (or
kio_file, or nepomuk, or whatever), I saKed it. And then initiated a
simple 'cp'. With that everything worked great with a throughput of 15
MiB/s.

So, does the KDE file manager do a super copy that cripples? Or is it
Nepomuk causing the trouble (even though it is disabled on my box)?

I should spend time in profiling/debugging the cause but real life
doesn't allow that. Do others face problems with Dolphin (or KDE's file
managers using kio_file) ?



PS: With all small problems piling up in KDE, I'm already drifting.
Browser: Iceweasel/Chromium
Email/NewsGroups/RSS: IceDove
File Manager: Yet To Find.
IM: Pidgin
Network Management: Wicd

Are there users who still run a *Pure KDE Installation* successfully ?


There still are good applications though:
Amarok, Ktorrent, Okular, Konsole, Quassel, Digikam/KPhotoAlbum, SMPlayer

I think when 4.0 was being prepared, the KDE devs had no migration
plans. Being a major release, this was seen as a transition that would
break things. AFAIK, The only team that did some work in helping migrate
user settings was the Debian KDE Team. They developed a tool, iirc,
kaboom, which did a fairly good job.

broken kde notifications

[Ritesh Raj Sarraf]

Hi,

Since one of the recent updates in the last one week, I have lost KDE's 
notification ability. All KDE notifications now pop up through some some 
GNOME notification UI.

Here's the link to the screenshot.
http://www.researchut.com/tmp/knotify.jpeg


Any ideas?

I'm not sure what you mean here. The screenshot shows kopete notifying through 
some GNOME notification. My installation tends to be gnome minimal. Acutally, I 
don't have any gnome apps installed. Whatever is there is mostly libs pulled 
as dependencies.

Can you be specific on what GNOME processes ? My check did not yield even a 
single one. I do have a bunch of gtk processes (wicd, virt-manager)

Thanks. Purging notification-daemon solved the problem.

Should the kde-full or kde-desktop metapackage have a conflicts on stuff 
like these ? An end user will not be aware how the notifications went 
broken.

 I don't know, I'm not a GNOME expect nor I want to be. But afaik
 notifications are desktop-independent and relayed through DBus. So there
 is a GNOME application listening on the specific DBus signal (I guess
 `qdbus
 org.freedesktop.Notifications /org/freedesktop/Notifications` stuff) and
 preventing KDE plasma desktop from taking the service over.
 
 Probably notification-daemon or notify-osd.
 Once a process claims specified D-Bus name for the notification system, it
 owns it. All other programs capable of being a notification provider just
 don't get any of the calls.
 
 So if this happens with a clean session, something might have either
 invoked the other notification provider before plasma-desktop could claim
 it or something created a notification and D-Bus decided to activate one
 (not sure if any of the notification providers install a .service file for
 that though)
 
 Cheers,
 Kevin

 Now ask yourself if it really makes sense for KDE to conflict with GNOME at
 packaging level. My reaction would be: huh, KDE and GNOME cannot be
 installed on the system, wtf?

Okay!! But please fix this. If I have a KDE DE and a bunch of gtk/gnome tools 
which pull in notification-daemon, KDE's notification gets hijacked.

Bug#579413: akonadi-server: akonadi conflicts mysql-server

[Ritesh Raj Sarraf]

Package: akonadi-server
Version: 1.3.1-3
Severity: normal

I just noticed that 1.3.1-3 has a dependency on mysql-server-core
package which consists of only the mysqld binary.

Shouldn't the dependency be mysql-server-core | mysql-server
and then,
Recommends: mysql-server-core

For whatever reasosn, I ended up with amarok using the system instanace
mysql and using a database there. I configured akonadi the same way.
(I understand that akonadi does not use mysql database for storage but
only for cache, but for amarok, that might not be correct)

With this new dependency that you have introduced, the system instance
package will have to be removed.


Another possible use case could be a user wanting a system instance
mysql running on his workstation box. How will akonadi-server be installed
there ?


Regards,
Ritesh

Bug#575885: konqueror does not support socks proxy

[Ritesh Raj Sarraf]

Package: konqueror
Version: 4:4.4.2-0rc1
Severity: normal

I have been trying to make konqueror run with my local ssh forwarded
socks proxy but konqueror completely fails.


I login to my remote host using: ssh -D port hostname

When I configure konqueror to use the port on the localhost, pages do
not open.

I see this as a Konqueror/kdenetwork problem because, for tests, I ran
the arora web browser with the same settings and it works.

It looks more like a problem with alsa. Your kernel does not seem to be having

Hello Bud,

You might want to try these.

* If you running pulse, can you confirm if it is running. Check for its PID. 
If yes, try running, like mplayer with -ao pulse and see if it works.
* Does amarok/dragonplayer open for you ? If you have a phonon problem, 
applications depending on it will not open.
* Does a direct mplayer -ao alsa work ?

Hello Bud,

Can you kill X and login into the console and try mplayer with the oss and 
alsa audio output device ? That will give a better idea if it has something 
to do with Phonon or something else.

KDE 4.4 and Phonon

[Ritesh Raj Sarraf]

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA512

Hi,

With upgrade to KDE 4.4.1, I noticed that phonon has been running into 
problems. This causes all applications relying on phonon (amarok, 
dragonplayer) to not start.

Manually running mplayer with -ao pulse works.

In System Settings, I am not able to open the Multimedia Settigs windows. 
Maybe something to do with Phonon again.

Have others faced similar issues ?
Setup should be something like KDE 4.4 + PulseAudio + Phonon.


The same setting used to work on KDE 4.3.

Ritesh

[Ritesh Raj Sarraf]

Hi Stefan,

Stefan Seide wrote:

 After waiting for minutes, the disc activity stops eventually and KMail is
 usable again as in earlier versions.
 
 This seems to be related to my IMAP accounts - closing them and restarting
 the program does not lead to this behavior. Opening the IMAP accounts
 again and checking a new mail restarts this heavy disc usage again.
 
 I have 3 IMAP accounts, where one has something around 9000 mails within a
 subscribed folder, maybe thats related and KMail (latest version)  is
 trying to reindex it after every restart...
 

I used to have this problem earlier (when I used Disconnected IMAP). Are you 
using DIMAP ?

I have switched to plain IMAP for my localhost account and DIMAP for 
Exchange and haven't seen this issue lately.
My local imap account does have multiple folder with some having close to 
5000 mails.

I don't think you need to do that. I too have a cryptsetup LUKS encrypted

libsoprano sesame2 backend

[Ritesh Raj Sarraf]

Hi,

I just installed kubuntu on one of my boxes and found that they have nepomuk 
*usable* because they have been able to package and ship the sesame2 soprano 
backend.

From what I remember, Debian KDE team didn't have the resource to package 
it. Now that it is packaged for kubuntu, would it make sense to package and 
push it to at lease experimental ?

The reason is, this way, we can find bugs/ideas in nepomuk/apps and be able 
to report them upstream.

 Are you talking about something you found in a PPA or other repo?
 Because ubuntu's soprano's package is quite similar to Debian's:
 https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/soprano

 There were some distribution problems not very clear with some sesame2
 stuff (jar files ) last time I checked, and that is also a problem for
 ubuntu.

 Also, take into account thata  package something is not putting some files
 under debian/, ship it to the archive and forget. You have to look at the
 different packaging policies (in this case java) and keep them updated,
 look at all the build depends and depends packaged, then keep mantaining it
 and being able to look at bug reports... Nobody in the team was interested
 in that, and that is most of the job.

 I think we both, ubuntu and debian packages, are looking forward to see the
 virtuoso backend.

Ana,

I'm not sure if there's a difference in between sesame and sesame2.

Kubuntu is packaging sesame:
http://packages.ubuntu.com/karmic/soprano-backend-sesame

And the only additional dependency it adds is java2-runtime, which debian 
already packages.

Bug#527345: kdebase-workspace: No focus for KickOff menu

[Ritesh Raj Sarraf]

Package: kdebase-workspace
Version: 4:4.2.2-2
Severity: normal

Alt+F1 is assigned to (or can be) KickOff Menu. In KDE 4.1, when
pressing Alt+F1, KickOff menu had the focus. Same is not the case in KDE
4.2.
Even after pressing Alt+F1, one has to use the mouse to click on the
kickoff menu to let it have focus.

Checked in recent Kubuntu. This problem is not there. So much be a
Debian specific bug.

 I just removed an older 'Last Search' with two entries.
 I give feedback to the list in a few days.

Just to add, I didn't have any Searches defined. But still I got the memory 
leak. Interestingly, when run under valgrind, it reported that there was no 
leak, while at the same time the ps reports were showing kmail eating 80% of 
system memory.

Since I use D-IMAP and a bunch of POP accounts, I lost emails. Because POP 
accounts download the emails and then once in a day I was syncing them to my 
IMAP server using D-IMAP.
I lost some mails. :-(

So I moved out to fdm. This helps me use alpine in situations when kmail 
breaks. Be it memory leaks or crashes. This way I can still reliably access 
my emails and not worry about email loss.

PS: fdm is in Debian and I strongly recommend it.

I think in KDE 4.2.2, kmail has some serious memory leak issues (Contrary to

I don't know the exact pattern to reproduce, but once when triggered, even 
if I kill and start kmail, it eats up all the memory in seconds.

And this is what it logs..

 I already stopped kmail, removed all index files, started again. Kmail
 than rebuilds the index files - that's what i expect. after a few minutes
 pausing, kmail seems to start again... pausing... starting...etc.
 I have the 'feeling' that something triggers the reindexing, like a new
 incoming email or searching for an email.
 When I say 'reindexing', i am not shure if this is really what kmail does.
 
 Does anyone has an idea how to switch this behaviour off, since it is a
 killer (kmail is almost unusable when doing so) ?.

 That widget is very fragile. Do not expect it to work most of the time. Or
 rather do not be surprised when it breaks. The reason there is no update
 is because later svn revision is worse than the current one in
 experimental.

Just wanted to add some points here.
AFAIK, network-manager (and network-manager-kde) are maintained separately 
by Michael Biebel. The version of network-manager (+ nm-kde) in sid is very 
unstable. Many a times it doesn't work. VPN plugin doesn't work.
I've noticed that it has been in sid for some time now. And am not sure what 
the criteria for it is, to enter testing. IMO, it shouldn't enter testing.
The current network-manager (0.6.6) and network-manager-kde (qt3 based), in 
testing, are pretty stable and good.
 
 I've checked with Fedora 10 that all theses components are still working
 normaly.
 Could you check with fresh user account or at least with fresh ~/.kde
 profile?
 

This is a very good point ModaX has put. I usually have a separate user 
account handy, where I test certain behavior, before being sure it is a bug 
(be it upstream or debian related).
Please try it before reporting any bugs. It helps a lot.

Modestas Vainius wrote:

 Won't someone please think of the users?
 The reason I'm talking with you is because I think of the users. The
 reason we try hard to maintain and publish good packages is because we
 think of the users. The reason KDE is in Debian is because Debian KDE
 maintainers think of the users. Heck, the reason Debian exists is because
 Debian developers think of the users. Sure, users include developers
 themselves, but also all other people who find Debian usable regardless of
 (a few) deficiences.

I think the Debian KDE Maintainers are doing a pretty good job.
For example, I was very delighted, when I saw the announcement about Kaboom. 
I can't think of any other distribution (or upstream, for that matter), of 
thinking about the _User's_ data and how they should migrate.
Upstream simply tagged it as a backward incompatible major release. And so 
did many of the other distributions.

As far as bug handling is concerned, I think it is a challenge everywhere. I 
file many bug reports upstream and usually nobody even cares to respond to 
them, at times. And there can be 2 ways to look at it. 1) Nobody cares - KDE 
Sucks. 2) They are busy doing something better - Implementing features.

Packaging KDE4 was a daunting task. At a time like that, focusing on other 
things, like bug reports et cetera is of a lower priority for the packagers.

As users, we could take care of our bugs. Like the ones we report, when we 
see them fixed (downstream or upstream), we could mark them accordingly. 
That saves a lot of time for all.

Bug#521832: update-manager: udpate-[manager|notifier] for kde

[Ritesh Raj Sarraf]

Package: update-manager
Version: 0.68.debian
Severity: wishlist


Hi,

I noticed that Ubuntu is the upstream for both, update-manager and
update-notifier.

Ubuntu also ships update-manager-kde and update-notifier-kde.
Would it be possible to package them for Debian KDE also ?

I also noticed that the version in Debian is quite old. (Probably that's
because a lot of code change is required, because Debian doesn't have
frequent point releases like Ubuntu does).

Thanks,
Ritesh

Font Rendering Problems

[Ritesh Raj Sarraf]

I'm facing some localized font rendering problems. I'm suspecting KDE, but 
Im not sure. I'm a complete noob about how font rendering works and how 
localized text works.

I have some text in hindi. The same text is rendered differently in different 
programs within KDE.
I've taken some pics to explain the problem

In kmail's composer, some text is not rendered at all
http://picasaweb.google.com/riteshrajsarraf/Trash#5317158881219202866

But interestingly, I save the message as it is, as a Draft, and later if I 
open it, I get the text rendered properly.
http://picasaweb.google.com/riteshrajsarraf/Trash#5317158894377132450

But in Konsole, the same text is completely wrongly rendered.
http://picasaweb.google.com/riteshrajsarraf/Trash#5317158898870165234

The only app where I've seen it to be rendering correctly, is in kwrite
http://picasaweb.google.com/riteshrajsarraf/Trash#5317158900761240034

I checked and saw that kmail, kwrite and kate, all link to libktexteditor. 
So why does kmail's composer render it in a different way ?

Is this a KDE problem?
or
Is this a Qt problem?
or
Is this a User problem?

Bug#513382: MySql details

[Ritesh Raj Sarraf]

Too many people have been commenting on the invalid bug report.

Probably, there should be some writing going into a README.Debian explaining 
that akonadi depends on the mysqld binary, thus requiring the mysql-server 
package.

Also, we could document that the user can disable mysql-server from the init 
to start. Eg. chkconfig mysql --off

Re: Qt4.5 vs. KDE4.2

[Ritesh Raj Sarraf]

Dominik Schulz wrote:
 Hi,
 recently I've read a post by a KDE developer who did talk about
 compatiblity issues between KDE4.2 and Qt4.5. I think he did conclude that
 it would be bad idea to use KDE 4.2 (or earlier) together with Qt4.5
 because of some pre-Qt4.5 fixes which are made obsolete by Qt4.5 and can
 cause troubles. Does this mean that Qt4.5 (which is currently in
 experimental) will enter unstable not before KDE4.3 is released (and went
 into unstable)? Or did I get something totally wrong here and the Debian
 KDE/Qt Team has differnt plans?
 
 I do not need Qt4.5 for any specifiy reason, I'm just very pleased by the
 recent development of KDE4.x and Qt4.x and eager to try out the new
 features.
 


I've been using KDE 4.2 with Qt 4.5 the day it was uploaded to experimental, 
without issues. (Except for one, latest amarok crashes).

But then, YMMV.

Re: KDE 4.2

 Sigh.  Yes, of course.  Someone said, this is your last chance to
 influence the decision.  I was not trying to be rational; I was trying
 to influence the decision.  Sorry to disappoint you.

Putting it into Lenny will be very difficult and also not the best choice.
KDE4 can anyway go into Lenny, later, through backports.

But please, put KDE 4.2 Betas into Experimental. That'd be the right place. And 
it'll also help us test KDE 4.2 before the final release.

PS: I can go ahead and build 4.2 on my laptop along with 4.1. But I think 
experimental is the right place for such stuff.

Bug#505770: korganizer: Create ToDo doesn't include the original email

[Ritesh Raj Sarraf]

Package: korganizer
Version: 4:4.1.3-2
Severity: normal

In earlier versions of kmail/korganizer, when a ToDO was created from an email, 
the email itself was also added to the newly created ToDo as an attachment. 
This was very helpful as you could, later, when completing the ToDo, be able to 
refer to the complete email.

This is no more the case. My recent ToDos don't have the email attached at all.


I'm not sure if this behavior was changed upstream or it is a Debian specific 
thing.

Bug#505285: kmail crash in 4.1.3

[Ritesh Raj Sarraf]

Package: kmail
Version: 4:4.1.3-2
Severity: normal

Please have a look at KDE Bug 174816.

This bug was not present in KDE 4.1.2.
It got introduced with KDE 4.1.3. From the changelog of KDE, I don't think much 
changed in kmail.

As per the KDE bugzilla, one gentleman commented that it is a Qt bug.

In that case, shouldn't it have been seen on KDE 4.1.2 also?


Here's the backtrace:
