In most cases you don't need kdemultimedia-dev. That's only true for some very

What's missing is the information wether you're using woody/sarge/sid and 
which version of KDE you're running.

It's just an installer which gets the plugin from elsewhere, so it worked
fine on Woody, all I had to do was get a slightly more up to date version

Lazyness on my part, combined with the fact that I really don't like web based 
bug trackers, and I like the more direct interaction of a mailing list.

Well, dunno what in KDE-slang is named how. I mean the window where I compose 
a mail. The setting of the 'View -> Use fixed font' menu entry should be 
remembered.

For displaying mail, I can set fixed font to be used by default just fine. And 
when I check the 'Use fixed font' in the composer, it shows fixed with or 
without using custom fonts. (This one is probably workaround-able by defining 
the proportional font the same as the fixed font.

This one is mail display, not composer. The above was composer.

I was confused by the fact that kmail launches an external viewer for 
non-inlined jpegs instead of using the internal viewer. 'real' inlined jpegs 
(content-disposition: inline) display just fine.

Problem is the window focus jumping around because I like focus under mouse. 
(Oh, yes, windowmanager question: is there a 'new window has focus,

Hmm. didn't find it, will look harder. But since I sign by default, it'd be 
the 'not sign' function I'd really use.

Compiling Karamba

2003-04-05 Thread Jonathan Price
Hi,

I have been trying to compile Karamba (0.14) under sid:

http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php?content=5561
http://www.efd.lth.se/~d98hk/karamba/

However, I get an error that baffles me: (Full ouput on request, it is around 
300 lines)

In file included from karambarootpixmap.h:14,
 from karambarootpixmap.cpp:10:
/usr/include/kde/ksharedpixmap.h:53: base class `QWidget' has incomplete type
make[3]: *** [karambarootpixmap.o] Error 1

For configure, I used the following line:
./configure --with-qt-includes=/usr/include/qt3

My C++ and Qt skills being basic at best, I have absolutely no idea how to 
proceed from here, any hints would be welcome.

Cheers
Jono

KDE 3.1.1 on Woody - it's effects on other installs...

2003-04-05 Thread Penn Gwynne
I am fairly (re)new to Debian.  I had Potato in its early days, but played 
with Gentoo then Redhat 8 to get a feel for other distros.  

Ultimately I reinstalled Debian a couple of weeks ago from the 3.0r1 CDs and 
of course got KDE 2.2.  I want to use KDE specifically, but KMail from KDE 
2.2 would not work with my ISP which requires a password for SMTP.

After scanning a couple of threads in debian-user I got brave and went to 
www.kde.org where I added "deb http://download.kde.org/stable/3.1.1/Debian 
stable main" to my sources.list.  Took me a bit to figure out how to actually 
get KDE 3.1.1.  (Didn't realize it was "apt-get install kdm" and not "apt-get 
upgrade".)  So now I have KDE 3.1.1 and love it and this mail is being typed 
by KMail.

I see problems though.  I tried to install koffice and get errors.  Here is an 
extract of the terminal spew.

  koffice: Depends: koffice-libs but it is not going to be installed
   Depends: kchart but it is not going to be installed

Later I tried to install xmmsarts and got the same sort of thing:

Sorry, but the following packages have unmet dependencies:
  xmmsarts: Depends: libarts-alsa (>= 4:2.2.2-1) but it is not going to be
  installed or libarts (>= 4:2.2.2-1)

I assume all of this is because my system is now in sort of a "split" mode;  
stock Woody except for KDE.

Any advice on how to resolve this?  Do I need to upgrade to Sarge or (ugh) 
Sid?  Or is it primarily my newness to apt-get and how to force an install of 
a particular version of a package.

Thanks,
/Pen

Re: DCOPserver problem with user

2003-04-05 Thread Michael S Daines
Answering a few questions here:

I am running Debian 3.0 (no r1 yet, have to figure out how to do that).

I am using KDE 2.2.25.

My hostname is "ambushbug".  If it is significant, I set this hostname after I 
installed KDE (although before I installed apache, which suffers a similar 
problem).

Hope this helps.

Greg,

Thanks for the reply.  Couple of comments/questions.

Tried aptitude, but man page not very helpful, maybe a second read-over will 
help.  Mostly, got no no clue as to what some messages might imply.  I will 
have to try agin.

I added your URI to my sources.list.  Doing the update worked fine, but doing 
"apt-get install koffice" yielded the following message from APT

Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.

Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
that package should be filed.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

Sorry, but the following packages have unmet dependencies:
koffice: Depends: kpresenter but it is not going to be installed
E: Sorry, broken packages

Presumably KPresenter depends on something from woody that really needs to be 
from sarge or sid.  Another post today mentioned that KPresent needed arts.  
I suppose that I could just install what I needed piece meal.  Perhaps I 
should just bite the bullet and go to sarge directly, assuming it is running 
KDE 3.x at the minimum.

Guys, you probably don't know it but there's even more :-)

deb http://ktown.kde.org/~nolden/debian/kde woody main

http://ktown.kde.org/~nolden/debian/kde/README

Try that one instead. That's where I'll put updates on compared to the debs on 
the ftp servers.

That's part of the problem KDE 2.2 was quite error-prone on DCOPserver 
problems. Most often you can resolve these by logging out and logging in on a 
console and deleting ~/.DCOP* files. You may also need to check /tmp.

KDE upgrade using Ralf's packages on Sarge - broken system

2003-04-05 Thread Rachel
Hi
I have just attempted to upgrade my KDE3.03 system to KDE3.1 using the 
files available here: http://devel-home.kde.org/~nolden/kde/README

I followed the instructions on how to upgrade from a 3.0* version but when 
I tried to install kdebase kdm I get a huge list of unmet dependencies whch 
seem to come down to the right version of kdelibs4 kdelibs4-data not being 
available. Has anyone managed to successfully get KDE3.1 onto Sarge and if 
so could you share your sources.list please - or any other advice as I'm 
left with a totally unusable box at present and am having to work on Windows :(

It will be in a few days in debian. I will not package new version until
this date. Then you will have no problem to be up to date since karamba
will be part of the distro :)

BTW :) 

deb-src http://www.katzien.de/debian ./

Packages:
kisdndial -> my first package, from the scratch. Some review would 
 be wellcome :) If it is (when it will be :) ok, I would
 like to find a sponsor to include it into debian...
kickpim   -> uupdate from ktown debs and changes for new qt3
 packages

Kisdndial is a kickerapplet, which acts as a frontend to isdnctrl 
and also shows you the current connection rate.

Kickpim is a a kicker applet for kaddressbook, which also reminds you
of birtdays and anniversarities. 

The deb line is only useable if you have ktown kde and libc from
unstable... Currently I have no idea how to setup a clean woody
'chroot' (?)...

debootstrap will do this for you quite nicely. I also recommend the
sbuild package, which does building inside a chroot - very nice.

Ralf,

Thanks, that did the trick.  KOffice is now installed.  About the only thing 
left to figure out is how to restore the proper taskbar icons.

Noatun doesn't load ID3 tags

2003-04-05 Thread Nathan Weston
Noatun from KDE 3.1 doesn't load ID3 tags or ogg tags. I have the Tag Reader 
plugin active, and set to load tags automatically, but nothing happens. 
Noatun just displays the filenames in the playlist and the main window.

I am running unstable, and using the kde packages from there, and from 
http://people.debian.org/~ccheney/kde-3.1.1-1 ./

Am I possibly missing some packages?

Thanks,
Nathan
