Kde 4,1 on Fedora 9
This guide is turned to which they have installed Fedora 9 with Gnome 2,22 and have wish to try the version development of Kde 4, that which to July, at least being to the roadmap, she would have to see the light like Kde 4.1.
We begin:
Prerequisiti
yum install clucene-Core-devel libxml-devel libxslt-devel dbus-devel boost-devel bzip2-devel openssl-devel alsa-lib-devel redland-devel rasqal-devel raptor-devel hspell-devel aspell-devel cups-devel xine-lib-devel avahi-devel gamin-devel OpenEXR-devel enchant-devel jasper-devel ilmbase-devel pcre-devel gpgme-devel libxklavier-devel glib-devel libusb-devel libsmbclient-devel libxcb-devel NetworkManager-devel lm_sensors-devel libraw1394-devel bluez-libs-devel GCC-c libXext-devel cmake make subversion giflib-devel libpng-devel libXdamage-devel libXcomposite-devel libXrender-devel fontconfig-devel libXft-devel libXcursor-devel libXfixes-devel ruby-devel libXScrnSaver-devel libkdcraw-devel exiv2-devel lcms-devel libtiff-devel sqlite-devel libxkbfile-devel imlib2-devel patch gstreamer-plugins-base-devel gstreamer-devel libSM-devel
Kdesvn-build
Unloaded kdesvn-build and, after to have here scompattato the archives copied the rows kdesvn-build in /usr/bin. Now you take the configuration rows, copiatelo in a page of yours editor preferred name it .kdesvn-buildrc and saves it to you in yours home. A small note on these rows of configuration: I have decommentato the option for the qt-copy installation because, as it is famous, kde 4 svn it uses version 4,4 of the bookcases of Trolltech and, these last ones, still have not been pacchettizzate and yields available in the repo of fedora, reason for which is necessary to compile those yields available on svn.
Compilation
Now after to have created the cartelle: mkdir /usr/src/kde4, mkdir /opt/kde4, mkdir /opt/qt4, heading at /usr/src/kde4 and typed kdesvn-build; you press shipment here and that it begins the compilation.
Start of kde
Launch gedit /usr/bin/kdestart.sh and glue the following lines:
#! /bin/sh
export QTDIR=/opt/qt4
export KDEDIR=/opt/kde4
export KDEHOME=$HOME/.kde4
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$KDEDIR/lib: $LD_LIBRARY_PATH
export PATH=$QTDIR/bin: $KDEDIR/bin: /usr/local/bin: $PATH
startkde
Now gedit /usr/share/xsessions/kde4.desktop and glue:
[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Type=XSession
Exec=/usr/bin/kdestart.sh
TryExec=/usr/bin/kdestart.sh
Name=KDE4
Al riavvio you will find option kde 4 in the management of the sections. Warning: if, like me, you have installed fedora from live cd then you must install the package xorg-x11-xinit-session.
For disinstallare all:
rm - rf /usr/src/kde4
rm - rf /opt/qt4
rm - rf /opt/kde4
Conclusions
To compile a series of complex applications like those which they compose kde 4 is not operation that can be defined easy, fortunately us comes in aid this script created from the team of development of the draghetto, otherwise the thing would have been still more complicated. Kdesvn-build introduces a modular structure, in the sense that gives the possibility to compile the structure of kde block by block: 5 modules of base (qt-copy, kdesupport, kdelibs, kdepimlibs, kdebase) and a series of additional modules that can be added simply to chosen decommentando the code lines regard that them within .kdesvn-buildrc, or launch the followed commando kdesvn-build from the name of the module (es. kdesvn-build kdemultimedia).

I have installed Fedora 9 on my portable one and of it I have received a beautifulst impression; truly it compliments the development team.

Some notes… have tested I it on Kubuntu 8,04 (having modified the guide opportunely) but I have noticed some errors that creed do not depend from the distro… Even mistake to me, but you I say the same one to them: the configuration rows must be called “.kdesvn-buildrc” (and not. Kdesvn-buildrc, with capital K does not come found) and must be saved or in own home or the folder from which /kde/src/kde4 guide recalls itself second kdesvn-build (therefore). Moreover if the log is wanted to be allowed in /usr/src/kde4/log/, it must be recalled with the permissions of root
You have not even found these errors, but she can are given that to someone they can serve

Obviously you have reason I ringrazio and you for the signalling. The k capital it is naturally a mere error of digitazione, while the lacked indication the position of the configuration rows is absolutely a forgetfulness. Executed correction!
