Category: KDE
-
It is just painful and extremely complicated contributing to any kind of translation/localization. SVN repository !!?? Really!!? We live in 2024…
Mozilla has Pontoon, Arch Linux has Transifex, FreeBSD has a GitHub based localization system. KDE’s devs must take the initiative to change this malfunctioning collaborating localization system that pushes away volunteers
-
Fast, pretty, responsive and built for productivity
-
So apparently Calligra requires KProperty that can not be built against Qt6 and this caused an infinite loop of compilation errors etc…
-
Checking the build log:
> cat /home/chris/kde/src/log/2024-02-04-01/kiconthemes/build.log
# kdesrc-build running: 'ninja' '-j' '4'
# from directory: /home/chris/kde/build/kiconthemes
[0/1] Re-running CMake...
CMake Deprecation Warning:
