Dumbass KDE 4.2 Compilation Question

2009-02-05 Thread homburg
I thought that I would compile kde 4.2 in developer mode.
That is, the files are installed in the developer
directory. Thus I can test KDE 4.2 in advance of installing
it to the system.

The question is, if I move the installation to the system
directories, am I going to break anything? Will an
ldconfig repair any damage?

I guess that I should have queried before I was more
than halfway done; Fire - ready - aim.

Thanks

You should follow the instructions here: 
http://techbase.kde.org/Getting_Started/Build/KDE4

This will install a local copy to can log into from your user account and will 
leave the system version alone.

Or just don't build your own at all and test our update
from updates-testing instead. Or just wait for it to hit
updates, which should be in a couple weeks or so, give or
take a few days depending on how many issues are found
and have to be fixed.

Thanks!

Sometimes I think that my mission in life is to prove the
futility of trying to make anything fool proof. I am
installing the testing rpms as I type.


You can't make it foolproof.  Nature always comes up with new and
improved fools (such as yours truly).
