Java bindings?
Hi all, are the Java bindings for Qt/KDE [1] packaged for Debian? I am highly interested in porting some Java software to the KDE desktop. kind regards, Egon Willighagen 1. http://developer.kde.org/language-bindings/java/

[1] KDE depends on Python !?! [2] apt-get remove estimates space-to-be-freed badly The KDE 2.2.2 Woody/unstable box that I'm building ran out of disk space the other day (already over 900 Mb used, and all I have is gcc, perl, python, kde, kdevelop and koffice ... jeez). So I set about removing some stuff - regretfully I decided to remove Python (I did want to play with it, but I don't need it right now). I listed what there was installed, and for some reason there are python 1.5 debs *and* python 2.1 debs (in fact loads of confusing version numbers). Not really knowing what I was looking at, and needing to delete something quickly, I tried deleting the 1.5 debs, only to have apt-get tell me both *kde* and *koffice* would be *removed* if I went ahead ! : GBHBW205:~# dpkg -l python* Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold | Status=Not/Installed/Config-files/Unpacked/Failed-config/Half-installed |/ Err?=(none)/Hold/Reinst-required/X=both-problems (Status,Err: uppercase=bad) ||/ Name VersionDescription +++-==-==-== == un python (no description available) ii python-base1.5.2-18.4 An interactive object-oriented ii python-bobo2.1.4-5Python Object Publisher un python-bobodtm (no description available) ii python-bobopos 2.1-4 The Bobo Persistent Object System. un python-bsddb(no description available) un python-curses (no description available) in python-dev (no description available) ii python-doc 2.1.1.0-2 Documentation for the scripting un python-ecasoun (no description available) un python-elisp(no description available) in python-example (no description available) ii python-extclas 1.2-4 Improves integration between Python in python-gdbm (no description available) ii python-gdk-iml 0.6.6-2GTK gdk_imlib support module for ii python-gendoc 0.73-5 Documentation generation from Python ii python-glade 0.6.6-2Put a bit of python code behind pn python-gnome(no description available) ii python-gtk 0.6.6-2GTK support module for Python. un python-imaging (no description available) un python-imaging (no description available) un python-imaging (no description available) ii python-kjbucke 2.2-6 Set and graph data types for Python un python-kwparsi (no description available) ii python-ldap1.8-1 An LDAP module for Python. un python-misc (no description available) in python-mpz (no description available) ii python-mxdatet 1.3.0-5Date and time handling routines and un python-net (no description available) ii python-netcdf 2.2-2 A netCDF interface for Python ii python-newt0.50.17-7 A newt module for Python. ii python-numeric 17.1.2-5 Numerical (matrix-oriented) ii python-numeric 17.1.2-5 Tutorial for the Numerical Python ii python-pam 0.4.2-3A Python interface to the PAM un python-pcgi (no description available) in python-pmw (no description available) un python-pmw-doc (no description available) un python-pygresq (no description available) un python-pyqt (no description available) un python-regrtes (no description available) un python-stats(no description available) in python-tk (no description available) un python-xlib (no description available) ii python-xml 0.6.6-2XML tools for Python (1.5.x) un python-zlib (no description available) un python1.5 (no description available) ii python1.5-base 1.5.2-18.4 An interactive object-oriented un python2 (no description available) un python2-base(no description available) un python2-dev (no description available) un python2-zlib(no description available) ii python2.1 2.1.1-4An interactive object-oriented un python2.1-base (no description available) ii python2.1-dev 2.1.1-4Header files and a static library ii python2.1-doc 2.1.1.0-2 Documentation for the scripting ii python2.1-exam 2.1.1-4Examples for the scripting language ii python2.1-gdbm 2.1.1-4GNU dbm database support for Python ii python2.1-mpz 2.1.1-4Multiple-precision arithmetic un ii python2.1-tk 2.1.1-4Tkinter - Writing Tk applications GBHBW205:~# GBHBW205:~# df Filesystem 1k-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on /dev/hda3 1035692920436 62644 94% / /dev/hda1 1541984 1079712462272 71% /dosc GBHBW205:~# apt-get remove python1.5-base Reading Package Lists...

Re: dpkg Weirdness
kde (meta) -> koffice (meta) -> kivio -> python2.1 maybe kivio in woody depends on python 1.5 ? Removing python2.1 on a sid system would require that kde, koffice, and kivio at minimum to be removed. Chris

I wasn't expecting KDE to depend on scripting language packages. I guess in these days of large hard disks I shouldn't fret about such things :) >Removing python2.1 on a sid system would require that kde, koffice, >and kivio at minimum to be removed. Thanks for the warning. I'll just have to upsize my Linux set-aside disk space. Actually, in another response on debian-user David Harris points out that his fresh Woody install with all the same stuff as me totals just over 300 Mb ... so I must have some dross taking up space somewhere.

He talks of a wrong version of kdelibs3. So I suppose you have some debris left over from your abortive attempt to install KDE 2.2.2. Try purging everything to do with KDE and starting again with KDE 2.1.1 ? BTW, the standard wisdom is that you *can't* run 2.2.2 on Potato - it just won't work.

I'm still holding out hope that the newer koffice will enter woody in a matter of days - the build for the last remaining architecture is done and sitting in incoming. Ben.

I forgot to mention that kde and koffice at least in sid are meta packages which means they don't really need to be installed, they just help you install of all the applications. Chris
Would anyone here like an up to date KDE status page? (like perhaps kde.debian.net)
Listing things such as the status of KDE for Woody & Sid, the recommended packages to install for W&S (for instance, "kde" is more comprehensive, but doesn't exist yet in W, therefore in W install "kdebase"), the status for KDE3, etc? Please reply to this debian-kde@lists.debian.org list. __ Do You Yahoo!? Great stuff seeking new owners in Yahoo! Auctions! http://auctions.yahoo.com

I have something like this, but nearly as detailed at p.d.o/~ccheney/ basically it just tells what I am currently doing. It is heavily modeled after Branden's XSF page (see the source ;). A faq type page would probably be good to have also, if you want I can put it in my dir, or it can be setup elsewhere. Thanks, Chris
