Hi..

I just found out that Kate was not installed by default on Fedora 16 even though I had selected 'KDE Software Development' during installation. KDevelop is installed, but not Kate.

Was this a concious decision or a mistake?

Oversight, kdesdk is included, but we missed re-adding kate when it was split out and packaged separately.

I'll fix it in comps now.

Oh, just checked, kdesdk does indeed still have Requires: kate

So, did you somehow not get kdesdk either?

This happened again with F17.

I think its better to put Kate in KDE Software Development rather than kdesdk. kdesdk is for people developing KDE apps, right? Since Kate is a generic text editor and not just limited to developing KDE apps, it can be put in some other generic group.

fyi, see my recent commits to comps-f18:

https://fedorahosted.org/comps/log/comps-f18.xml.in

please review.

In the meantime, I'll be looking over more recent package-splitting efforts, to make sure nothing else fell through the cracks.

We should list the split subpackages, not the kdesdk metapackage.

(There's the kdeaccounts plugin left in the main package, but it was dropped in kdesdk 4.9 and upstream says it has actually been obsoleted by an Akonadi plugin ever since Akonadi-based kdepim was introduced, it was just left in kdesdk by mistake.)

I also suggest adding the following applications to 'KDE Software Development' (and not in kdesdk): Kompare Okteta

One doubt. What exactly does 'kdesdk' contain? Does it contain the KDE development libraries or only some applications that are useful for developers?

kdesdk's decription includes:

A metapackage/collection of applications and tools used by developers, including: * cervisia: a CVS frontend * kate: advanced text editor * kcachegrind: a browser for data produced by profiling tools (e.g. cachegrind) * kompare: diff tool * kuiviewer: displays designer's UI files * lokalize: computer-aided translation system focusing on productivity and performance * okteta: binary/hex editor * umbrello: UML modeller and UML diagram tool

and it pulls in those separate apps via dependencies:

Requires: %{name}-cervisia = %{version}-%{release} Requires: %{name}-dolphin-plugins = %{version}-%{release} Requires: %{name}-kapptemplate = %{version}-%{release} Requires: %{name}-kcachegrind = %{version}-%{release} Requires: %{name}-kioslave = %{version}-%{release} Requires: %{name}-kmtrace = %{version}-%{release} Requires: %{name}-kompare = %{version}-%{release} Requires: %{name}-kpartloader = %{version}-%{release} Requires: %{name}-kstartperf = %{version}-%{release} Requires: %{name}-kuiviewer = %{version}-%{release} Requires: %{name}-okteta = %{version}-%{release} Requires: %{name}-poxml = %{version}-%{release} Requires: %{name}-scripts = %{version}-%{release} Requires: %{name}-strigi-analyzer = %{version}-%{release} Requires: %{name}-thumbnailers = %{version}-%{release} Requires: %{name}-umbrello = %{version}-%{release} # for upgrade path, when kate was split out Requires: kate
