    Kopete Facebook Plugin

    This is real man, Duncan Mac-Vicar P. is working to add facebook support in Kopete. So I made a PKGBUILD to build his nice plugin, obviously you can find it on AUR.

    It works with KDE 4.2 or above; you also need qjson.

    Now you can chat with anyone in your facebook contact list from Kopete. It supports proxy.

    Enjoy!

    KDE 4.3 beta 1 packages

    Hi all,
    I’m working on kde 4.3 beta packages – we must be ready for the official release – so I temporally created a repository [kde-unstable] where I’m putting the packages that I built.
    The repository is located at http://dev.archlinux.org/~andrea/kde-unstable/ and here I’m putting the PKGBUILDs that I’m using.
    So if you want to try the new beta simply add this repo to your pacman.conf. Only i686.

    Please report to me bugs which are related to a bad PKGBUILD.

    Enjoy ;)

    How to set the icon in KDE Kicker menu

    To change the Kicker menu icon you have to change ${icons_dir}/places/start-here-kde.png icon.

    For example, to set archlinux-icon-crystal-128.svg, from archlinux-artwork package, as Kicker menu icon you must run this (you need librsvg):

    # for i in 16 22 32 48 64 128; do rsvg-convert /usr/share/archlinux/icons/archlinux-icon-crystal-128.svg -f png -h $i -w $i -o /usr/share/icons/default.kde4/${i}x${i}/places/start-here-kde.png; done

    Now re-apply your icon theme and enjoy ours logo ;)
