…still I cannot update it.
The problem is with Akonadi: it does not start with MySQL 5.1.43 and does not start with the new MySQL release too.
I reported this on bugs.kde.org three weeks ago (#225333); others people confirmed this issue (#226960) and I think that Akonadi developers are working on it, logs do not help too much.
So, seems that we will skip this minor release too. Stay tuned.
Probably you already know, but I had not enough free time to write this first. Anyway the point is that the last KDE release candidate is waiting for you in [testing] ([kde-unstable] is dropped).
There are no big changes, only fixes; KDE devs want to be sure everything build and work.
If you already are using KDE with virtuoso backend, you should read this thread on arch-dev-pulic mailing list.
Have a good update!
They released it, we packaged it!
Yesterday KDE developers tagged the 2nd Release Candidate and today we released the Arch Linux packages into [kde-unstable]…nearly there, 4.4.0 will be out soon!
The x86_64 packages are already on [kde-unstable] whereas I am still uploading i686 packages, they will be in the mirrors tonight. ;)
The packages are built with libpng 1.4.0 and libjpeg 8, so you can update easy without any problems.
As ever, please report any bugs. Thanks!
Ok, here we are. The first official KDE 4.4 packages for Arch Linux are ready. We will move the package to [extra] only when the 4.4 stable will be released. So, if you want to try the new KDE you need to enable the [kde-unstable] repository. Run the update with this steps:
[kde-unstable]
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
Arch Linux changes:
Note: [19/01/2010] This repo will be unusable until KDE 4.4 RC2. DON’T USE IT.
Hi all,
Ok, I confirm, I was jealous about Allan: after the “he broke it!” everyone know him. I wanted to be more popular, and maybe with my last crap I did.
I changed configuration, pid and sock file path in MySQL; I was pretty sure that change didn’t broke anything except php, but…I failed.
Yesterday I lost the whole day trying to fix this and in the night I found the solution: the problem was mysql set sock file path to /tmp/mysql.sock by default, I need to pass the option in configure. Don’t ask me why, but I thought that move sock file in a new location was a minor change and setting the new path into my.cnf was enough.
mysql 5.1.41-2 is already in [extra] and will fix everything (qt applications, mysql-python, etc…).
At least, with this “little story”, I’ll remember to put every package in [testing] first!
Happy update :)
Hi kde users, KDE 4.3.2 will be released in the next hours as told in Release Schedule so Pierre and I bumped the ours KDE version in [extra] repository. Have a nice update!
Hi again archers, pidgin is now built with voice and video support.
You can find pidgin 2.6.2-3 in official repository [testing].
I added farsight2 to depends but I keept gstreamer0.10-{base,good} as optional.
I was looking for a source tarball from one week, cause berlios.de have problems, and finally I got it!
This new release fix the annoying problem with fetch lyrics feature.
I can tell you: sonata 1.6.2.1 available for archers!
September 21, 2009 (Version 1.6.2.1):
Whit ncmpc 0.12 developers added an experimental lyrics screen disabled by default.
Now archers can find this screen in ncmpc 0.15-2 package who I built some hours ago.
ncmpc 0.15 changes include an improved build, updated lyricwiki plugin, fixed bugs, and a tweaked display.
NB. Lyrics plugins need python and/or ruby (depends on which you want to use)
Hi all,
only let you know the repository kde-unstable is again active.
I packaged with Pierre KDE 4.3 beta2; at the moment packages are bigger than previous because we enabled the DEBUG build option, but we will disable it soon: there are few vantages and many disadvantages to keep it.
Pierre talked with Allan who said that pacman 3.3 will be out soon, so we are working to split KDE packages. Will be nice to have splitted packages in time to the new KDE release.
Cheers
