Digikam troubles
Hi, I have a problem with digikam and I don't know if it's a problem of my configuration (some package with different version, etc) or the debian package has some trouble. If I run digikam, the program simply doesn't begin. It's blocked reading the database. However, if I run digikan, inside gdb, it runs perfectly (apparently ..). Some ideas?

However, I do believe this list is appropriate for your question. This isn't the kde4-backports list, it's debian-kde which is for "Discussions related to KDE in Debian."

Amarok after Lenny release
Hello, as most of you know, KDE 4 is going to replace KDE 3 in unstable soon after Lenny release. At that point the following is planned to be done with Amarok: 1) I personally have absolutely no interest in Amarok 1.4, upstream does not either, which means it is pretty much abandoned. 2) Keeping and maintaining both versions in archive is not an option for me. As soon as most of KDE3 leaves unstable, Amarok 1.4 will need some work to be in shape again which I'm not going to do. Basically, what I'm saying is that Amarok 2 will replace Amarok 1 in unstable as soon as possible (when all its build depends are in unstable). It probably won't reach testing soon though because it has portability problems to other architectures except amd64 and i386. 3) I guess some users won't be happy about this. Amarok 2 is a 80-90% rewrite of code and GUI so it is basically a different application. Also Amarok 2 is missing some features which other people consider a must. 4) A bit off topic, but I will never do Amarok 2 backports for Lenny. So what's this mail about you may ask? I want to know what Debian users think about Amarok 2 (just install amarok from experimental, it's 2.0RC1) and about what is going to happen to amarok in Debian. I just want to know how many users are going to be satisfied or unhappy and why. -- Modestas Vainius <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.

You have to be using unstable+experimental to install it.

I know it's not as complete as 1.4, but people that want 1.4 (and KDE 3) can continue running Lenny for quite a while. I'll be in that boat, and as long as security and stability issues are addressed (as is SOP for stable) I'll be fine with it. The release cycle for Sqeeze will probably see both KDE 4 and Amarok 2 eclipse their older versions in functionality if not also stability, efficiency, and performance. I still think the "best" plan would have been to have KDE 3 / 4 and associated applications be co-installable for at least one Debian release, but I don't do enough to help the project as is and that's a lot of work for developers with not a lot of interest. Executive Summary: From one user that won't be interested in Amarok 2 for a while, your plan sounds reasonable and acceptable. -- Boyd Stephen Smith Jr. ,= ,-_-. =.

Hmmm, how is that script called? Thats what I wonder about. I have *lots* of data in ~/.kde. [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~> LANG=C du -sh .kde 367M.kde Thats: - IMAP folder indexes for KMail - extremely complex KMail configuration with tons of filters - Calender, journal, todos, address book, almost everything thats provided under the hood of Kontact - Baskets (http://basket.kde.org) It is vital to be able to migrate all that safely. I do not intent to copy over ~/.kde verbatim. Just necessary bits an pieces. But I wonder how good migration of that data works out. Does it work out of the box? Thats why I thought about the smooth migration. Well maybe its to much hassle and I just spring into the water and see how it goes. KDE 4.1.3 looks nice in VirtualBox and KDE 4.2 is coming...

With VirtualBox I could use Debian packages for KDE 3 and KDE 4 on the same machine without interfering with one another. Well maybe I will just switch to KDE 4 over Christmas and hope the best that I have everything in place for productive work till the next year begins. ;) -- Martin 'Helios' Steigerwald - http://www.Lichtvoll.de GPG: 03B0 0D6C 0040 0710 4AFA B82F 991B EAAC A599 84C7 signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.

As a Debian unstable user with a substantial Amarok collection, do I have to fear Amarok 2 eating my collection related data without warning or being incapable of going back to 1.4 for now? I'd love to give you feedback on Amarok 2 because from reading about it few moths ago I believe I'm in that bunch of people that will miss some of Amarok 1.4 must-have features in 2.0. :( -- Dom Delimar http://domdelimar.com -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

I switched to amarok 2 rc1 about a month ago (perhaps it was a beta...) because amarok 1.4 and kde 4 stopped to work fine together in some kde 4 update :-/ amarok 2rc1 is obviously not as complete as amarok 1.4, but it works fine (I can't get used to the UI, but I guess that's a taste matter). Also, considering that the first stable version of amarok 2 will be with kde 4.2, and how much kde seems to have changed since 4.1, I don't doubt that amarok 2.1 will be a really great step forward. Also, considering your firsts two points, it is obvious that is the correct road to follow. And, of course, thanks for your time and efforts to make amarok available in Debian :-D Regards, Lisandro. -- Dadme voto electrónico y con una terminal os haré presidente. el.machi Lisandro Damián Nicanor Pérez Meyer http://perezmeyer.com.ar/ http://perezmeyer.blogspot.com/ signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.

You can always backup ~/.kde (or the amarok folders/configs inside). If you are using a database for managing the playlist, the data will be unaffected (but do a backup as I wrote above nontheless). About a month ago, I couldn't import the data from the MySQL's DB. But the current available amarok 2 version in experimental is newer than what I tested, so it may work. If you did the backup, you can safely go back if you want to. Thinking about this one more time, amarok 2 should be using ~/.kde4, so the data of amarok 1.4 should not be touched...
