Hi,
Recently flathub started building our runtime into their systems. I
recommend using the runtimes there. I updated the wiki to reflect the
change:
<a href="https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Flatpak" title="https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Flatpak">https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Flatpak</a>

You will possibly have to remove and add again the runtime, but other
than that everything should work as usual.

Hi, starting with KDE Applications 17.12.0 we will be running a script that automatically creates the bugzilla version for your application.

For that to happen your application must specify its version in the cmake project call.

For more info see <a href="https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Application_Versioning#Bugzilla_versions" title="https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Application_Versioning#Bugzilla_versions">https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Application_Versioning#B...</a>

I have a dell laptop with a dell docking station.

This combination will generate hot plug events for
the mouse. But my mouse preferences are not applied
to the "new" mouse.

Is there code in PLasma that is supposed to handle this?

I can look into the problem if that helps.

I'm sorry to take your time with this, but I need to find a place in konqueror's sources.

I want to make a little change and I just need somebody to point me to the right place in the sources.

I need to modify the behaviour of the konqueror status bar - I'm using konqueror 4.8.4-2 on Debian.

When first launched, konqueror displays a standard status bar (snapshot1.png),
but as soon as I open a second tab (snapshot2.png),
or as soon as I press F9 and open the sidebar (snapshot3.png),
the status bar is replaced by some white strip whose colour cannot be changed and looks nothing like the sta

Hey folks :)

Since 2015 I and other people have been talking about Evolving KDE
(<a href="http://blog.lydiapintscher.de/2015/04/18/evolving-kde" title="http://blog.lydiapintscher.de/2015/04/18/evolving-kde">http://blog.lydiapintscher.de/2015/04/18/evolving-kde</a>) - meaning
reflecting on where we are, where we want to go and how we will get
there. We have made great strides with defining our vision
(<a href="https://community.kde.org/KDE/Vision" title="https://community.kde.org/KDE/Vision">https://community.kde.org/KDE/Vision</a>) and mission
(<a href="https://community.kde.org/KDE/Mission" title="https://community.kde.org/KDE/Mission">https://community.kde.org/KDE/Mission</a>) since then.

Hello everyone,
I'd like to try to drive a resolution for
<a href="https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=80657" title="https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=80657">https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=80657</a>, which is about harmonizing
tab handling shortcuts across KDE applications.

In order to move forward on this, we'll need to discuss what shortcuts
we should standardize on. In the time since the bug was written in 2004,
a rough standard has emerged: ctrl+tab/ctrl+shift+tab and
ctrl+pgup/ctrl+pgdn. This is used across all major web browsers as well
as all GNOME software.

If we can agree on that, I'll start working on individual apps to get
their defaults changed.

I expected KHTML's lagging behind web specifications to lead to some kind of
massive change before now. Nevertheless, I'm not appreciative of what seems to
be the current plan.

1-I am in favor of any names that begin with either K or Q, as these naturally
and beautifully identify any application as a good fit to the QT-toolkit-based
KDE environment providing it.

2-"Zilla" IMO has no legitimate place in the name of any web browser that is not
built using a Mozilla browser engine.

Hola!

As per [1] the release management suite releaseme creates tarballs
which rely on kdoctools to process a directory with docbooks inside.
Previously releaseme manually constructed CMakeLists suitable for the
documentation lineup at hand. This required an excessive amount of
fairly poorly engineered code though, so this change should increase
the overall reliability of documentation installation.

Unfortunately, this also comes with a slight downside as previously
releaseme would try very hard to retain logic in the english
documentation (e.g.

The games sub-section under the applications section seems to intrigue
me.So I have to learn how to use QT creator in order to build games of my
own or fix bugs in the existing games?

Hey,
Just configured to have the server issue a new daily build (at 3am
UTC, if I cron'ed correctly). Shouldn't be a big strain on the server
and will be more useful to developers who are trying to make sure that
their application works.

Logs can be found here:

In isoimagewriter I've multiple classes doing ISO verification. How
this is done differs per distro so I've different classes for Neon,
Kubuntu, Arch etc. They share a common parent class to not duplicate
too much code. But I still need to create each class and call it
individually.

In a more dynamic language I'd make an array of these classes for loop
over the array to call them. What's a good way to do something
similar in c++?

I worry the answer will include templates and other scary parts of c++.

Hey all,

from what I know there is no kf5 port of the upnp kio slave yet.Is
there any interest in porting it or is there an alternative for kf5?

If there is some interest, I will start working on this in the next
few days.

Hi all,
I'm looking for feedback about the proposal of making KDE Applications
17.12 an LTS release. If there are enough developers interested, we can
make this happen (see this thread [1] on release-team for some context).

Motivations for making 17.12 an LTS release:

* 17.12 due in December, next Plasma LTS due in January.
* New openSUSE and Ubuntu LTS releases due next year.
* 17.12 won't have kdelibs4 applications, so it would be a 'stable' target.

On the other hand, Albert made good points against [2][3], since an LTS
branch means more work for developers.

<a href="https://phabricator.kde.org/differential/query/q52K5f1T8ZoF/" title="https://phabricator.kde.org/differential/query/q52K5f1T8ZoF/">https://phabricator.kde.org/differential/query/q52K5f1T8ZoF/</a> is a list of
commits that are accepted but yet not commited.

For people that submitted the patch, if you don't have commit access please
remind it in the differential issue (or ping me)

If you're a developer with commit access, please commit patches to help keep
the list being small, If you need to know if the person email for the commit
message, ping me (i have some extra identity.kde.org powers).

If the patch is not really ready, please raise a "Request Changes" comment so
it gets cleared from the list.

Cheers,
Albert

Hello there,

I'm porting the Konqueror about page from KHTML to WebEngine,
and it turns out that the same CSS/HTML doesn't render the same in both
engines.

In WebEngine (and Firefox, for that matter) it's all squished to the left of
the page.

Can someone with CSS/HTML knowledge send me a modified version of the attached
files so that they render correctly in e.g.

I am a bit confused on how to use valgrind inside kdevelop:
I compiled kdev-valgrind from source using the 5.1 branch (I got
KDevelop 5.1.1 KDE Neon )
The problem is it keeps issuing the following command

Hi,
I started a wiki page [1] with some notes about porting applications on

Hi Aman,

I was facing the same sort of issue. This is happening as cmake is not able
to read the Phonon4Qt5Config.cmake file.

I'm trying to build Blinken using the source but am getting an error
regarding Phonon4qt5 which i'm not able to resolve. I've attached a
screenshot with this mail which shows the error. I hope someone may please
reach out to me for help.

Hello,

I'm trying to package KMyMoney with hbci for openSUSE. Therefore I backported
the cmake files (aqbanking-config.cmake, ...) to AqBanking 5.1 and gwenhywfar
4.7 (current versions in suse 42.2 repo). Beside some linker errors in
konlinetasks_sepa (multiple definition of
`sepaStoragePlugin::qt_static_metacall) my question is:

Is the dependency on aqbanking 5.5.1 and gwenhywfar 4.13 caused by the need of
the cmake files or does kmymoney requires some new features in this versions?

Kind regards,

Joachim Langenbach
