[Bug 488911] Re: needs-packaging kdevelop3 (because kdevelop4 is low-quality beta)
There's nothing to keep. It's been removed and per policy cannot be re- introduced. ** Changed in: kdevelop (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed = Won't Fix -- needs-packaging kdevelop3 (because kdevelop4 is low-quality beta) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/488911 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to kdevelop in ubuntu. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-b...@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
[Bug 488911] Re: needs-packaging kdevelop3 (because kdevelop4 is low-quality beta)
Wow, I wish the kdevelop team would wither make kdevelop4 work before throwing out support for kdevelop3. This is highly disappointing. I and my team have been using kdevelop3 for a rather large in-house project (about 310k lines of code) and kdevelop4 breaks a LOT of stuff. I have developers who range from seasoned developers to fresh out of grad school - Jonathon Thomas' recommendation of switching to radically different development tools (with completely different workflows, I might add) simply isn't practical, logistically or otherwise when you have project deadlines to keep. Would it be against the Ubuntu policy to keep kdevelop3 in the universe or metaverse repository? I can easily point out projects of those that are not actively maintained. Our solution right now is to installed custom .deb packages for kdevelop3 in Karmic, or keep Jaunty or switch to Debian. Ouch. ** Changed in: kdevelop (Ubuntu) Status: Won't Fix = Incomplete ** Changed in: kdevelop (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = Confirmed -- needs-packaging kdevelop3 (because kdevelop4 is low-quality beta) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/488911 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to kdevelop in ubuntu. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-b...@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs

OK. Has the person who set that policy actually tried to develop C++ code on karmic? I'll have to go find a distro that supports developers, I guess :-( I don't have time to waste on silliness.

Qt Creator, vim, emacs and even Kate all work fine. -- needs-packaging kdevelop3 (because kdevelop4 is low-quality beta) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/488911 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 488911] Re: needs-packaging kdevelop3 (because kdevelop4 is low-quality beta)
For some rather odd value of the word fine, yes, they do. Not really relevant to trying to support large projects for server code though, which was the point of my original report. I'm still not sure why this policy has been applied to kdevelop when a quick review of the official repositories indicates the presence of plenty of unmaintained software, so it's clear that not only can unmaintained software enter the repositories, it frequently does so. Anyway, I've moved all the code development off Kubuntu now, so I suppose it doesn't really matter. It just would have been nice to have been warned about this before karmic came out, so the migration could have been proactive instead of reactive. -- needs-packaging kdevelop3 (because kdevelop4 is low-quality beta) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/488911 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

KDevelop3 is unmaintained, and Ubuntu policy states that unmaintained software cannot enter the repositories. ** Changed in: kdevelop (Ubuntu) Status: New = Won't Fix -- needs-packaging kdevelop3 (because kdevelop4 is low-quality beta) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/488911 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
