Bug ID: 402428
Summary: Try to install non-KDE build dependencies
automatically
Product: kdesrc-build
Version: Git
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: project metadata
Assignee: mp...@kde.org
Reporter: n...@kde.org
Target Milestone: ---
Now that we're strongly recommending the use of kdesrc-build in our official
documentation, one thing that's coming up more and more is problems getting
non-KDE dependencies installed.
It might be nice if kdesrc-build could do a best-effort attempt to install
needed non-KDE dependencies using the distro's package manager. It would
basically do the equivalent of `dnf builddep` (Fedora), `zypper si -d`
(openSUSE) or `apt build-dep` (Ubuntu), but omitting the KDE dependencies if
possible. If not, that's not a huge deal since kdesrc-build will just compile
them anyway.
