'''kpackagekit''':
* The decision of making kpackagekit the default on the live images was postponed to next week.
* So there will be some extra time to test kpackagekit.
'''Mysterious cmake failure on ppc64''':
* ppc64 builds of kdepim always fail with various cmake errors.
* This also prevents us from fixing the broken libgnokii.so.3 dependency.
* It's unclear what's going wrong there.
'''Plasma backports? (see also plasma-4.1-openSUSE)''':
* OpenSUSE did some backports of plasma features in their KDE-4.1 version.
* At least the [http://websvn.kde.org/?view=rev&revision=864493 autohide functionality of the plasma panel] is also interesting for us (and was also frequently requested).
* A problem will be that all these backports will be (mostly) untranslated until KDE-4.2.
* We'll try to backport the autohide functionality with avoiding the unnecessary string changes in it's translation.
* Another intersting one is the [http://websvn.kde.org/?view=rev&revision=863348 folderview backport] with the ability to save icon positions across sessions.
* But here these changes aren't properly isolated and don't worth the trouble of a backport.
'''KMix multimedia key support''':
* Kubuntu has implemented support for multimedia keys in kmix.
* KevinKofler [http://repo.calcforge.org/f10/kubuntu_02_kmix_keyboard_shortcuts.diff isolated the needed changes].
* One big disadvantage is that the volume slider is always hardcoded to "Master:0".
* It also introduces some new strings that aren't translated yet.
* Another disadvantage is that Kubuntu's patch isn't send to upstream yet.
* We'll talk to the responsible Kubuntu maintainer first before making further decisions.




'''find-lang-like macro for KDE documentation''':
* %find_lang doesn't has proper support for KDE documentation at the moment.
* It should be patched to better support the "--kde" parameter
* The currently used copy&pasted scripts could be avoided then.
* Another solution could be a macro in kde-filesystem.
* The advantage here will be that we could implement this earlier (though %find_lang is the better place for this).

Transcript

Summary

kpackagekit:

  • The decision of making kpackagekit the default on the live images was postponed to next week.
  • So there will be some extra time to test kpackagekit.

Mysterious cmake failure on ppc64:

  • ppc64 builds of kdepim always fail with various cmake errors.
  • This also prevents us from fixing the broken libgnokii.so.3 dependency.
  • It's unclear what's going wrong there.

Plasma backports? (see also plasma-4.1-openSUSE):

  • OpenSUSE did some backports of plasma features in their KDE-4.1 version.
  • At least the autohide functionality of the plasma panel is also interesting for us (and was also frequently requested).
  • A problem will be that all these backports will be (mostly) untranslated until KDE-4.2.
  • We'll try to backport the autohide functionality with avoiding the unnecessary string changes in it's translation.
  • Another intersting one is the folderview backport with the ability to save icon positions across sessions.
  • But here these changes aren't properly isolated and don't worth the trouble of a backport.

KMix multimedia key support:

  • Kubuntu has implemented support for multimedia keys in kmix.
  • KevinKofler isolated the needed changes.
  • One big disadvantage is that the volume slider is always hardcoded to "Master:0".
  • It also introduces some new strings that aren't translated yet.
  • Another disadvantage is that Kubuntu's patch isn't send to upstream yet.
  • We'll talk to the responsible Kubuntu maintainer first before making further decisions.


find-lang-like macro for KDE documentation:

  • %find_lang doesn't has proper support for KDE documentation at the moment.
  • It should be patched to better support the "--kde" parameter
  • The currently used copy&pasted scripts could be avoided then.
  • Another solution could be a macro in kde-filesystem.
  • The advantage here will be that we could implement this earlier (though %find_lang is the better place for this).
