EOL kcm-gtk/xsettings-kde for f24+ ?
by Rex Dieter 19 Apr '16

19 Apr '16

Given that upstream uses kde-gtk-config now, any objection to EOL'ing kcm- gtk/xsettings-kde for f24+ ? Plan (probably) would be for f24+ builds of kde-gtk-config to Obsoletes: those other items for an upgrade path. Any comment or objection? -- Rex

Recent problem enabling kde-redhat repo
by Peter G. 17 Apr '16

17 Apr '16

For years, I have been using the kdeforge.repo file, but since a while, I have been having difficulties/impossibility to get anything. I spent the last hour trying to muddle through the various repo files and I am unable to determine which is the one to use: kde.repo, kdeforge.repo, kde- redhat.repo, etc. Also, and this is where the problem seems to lie, some of these repo files refer to the mirrorlist at: http://apt.kde-redhat.org/apt/kde-redhat/fedora/mirrors-stable|testing|unst… while other of these repo files refer to the location of the mirrorlist at: http://apt.kde-redhat.org/apt/kde-redhat/fedora/23/x86_64/[stable/mirrors| testing/mirrors|unstable/mirrors] No matter which combination I seem to try, dnf hangs for ages and then returns and error: Failed to synchronize cache for repo 'kde-unstable' from... Cannot download, all mirrors were already tried without success, disabling. So, how do I get this working? Which is the correct repo file and which is the correct location of the mirror list?

Language Pack broken?
by Florian Sievert 17 Apr '16

17 Apr '16

Hi there, I am currently on kf5 5.21, plasma 5.5 and qt 5.6 from the testing repos. I just noticed that the i18n from dolphin seems to be broken as the "general" menu from it is in english, while the rest is German. I just noticed that the packages are marked by dnf when trying to perform an update. I am not sure why these packages seems to fail upgrading, so any ideas? Not sure if I am stuck on some weird package combination or might be a general issue with the language packs.

Libunity / Chrome/Chromium Download notifications
by Gerald B. Cox 17 Apr '16

17 Apr '16

Just checking to see if I missed something... Installed libunity and plasma 5.6 According to http://blog.broulik.de/2016/01/on-being-more-convenient/ I should see some type of notification in the task manager when downloading a file... I don't see anything at all different. Has anyone else tested this?

libunity testing
by Gerald B. Cox 16 Apr '16

16 Apr '16

Rex, Thanks for putting libunity out on copr for F23 testing... but unless I am mistaken, to really test out the functionality I also need plasma-workspace 5.6 - and looks like that is only available for F24+. Do you have a timeframe when plama-workspace 5.6 will be out in the testing repo for F23? Not trying to rush you... I'm sure you have other things with a higher priority.... just asking. For those of you who don't know what this is all about: http://blog.broulik.de/2016/01/on-being-more-convenient/
