I only left kdeaccessibility, kdeedu, kdegames, kdetoys and kdewebdev out of the loop. Why? because, IMHO, since this is just another test version, I don't think the first four packages are really neded. kdewebdev was giving me a bad time and since I was already tired... I decided to "banish it" for a while *grin* But if ANYONE really need one of those packages, just let me know and I will work on them. Right now I am uploading the packages to bluewhite64-12.2 repository (http://data.linux64packages.net:8080/bluewhite64-12.2/). I also uploaded a few changes in dependencies (to the deps/ folder). the "knotificationitem-0.1" got that version number because I didn't find its version. Since is said (by KDE guys) to be an experimental library, I "numbered" it that way. If anything changes, I will let you know. So far, kde-4.3.0rc1 is running nicely on my computer. Feedback and reports are welcome  | ||

I have spotted two minor bugs and reported them: 1- one is about kget not remembering where I want to save files (when I try to download straight from konqueror) 2- the other is about KDEmicroBlog, which is not letting me post on twitter.com. I can read the twits, just can't post them. And... I have upgraded the splash_screen to show "KDE-4.3" on it If someone is up to testing if the bugs I found are reproduceable, please let me know and I can give you some directions. Thanks | ||

I just ask your special attention to check a few changes in dependencies from my packages from kde-4.3.0rc2 to 4.3.0rc3. I am now using another qt version and I found out kdebase-runtime-4.3.0rc3 won't compile against redland-1.0.9. So I had to downgrade to redland-1.0.8. Don't ask me how kdebase-runtime-4.3.0rc2 worked with that (1.0.9). The #kde guys said it had to be luck. I kindda believe that... or in "IT witchcraft". OK, as soon as the packages are on the repository I will let you all know. | ||

So now you guys can help me test remember to upgrade the following depedencies: -soprano -qt and to downgrade: -redland This morning I was told, by one of KDE devs, that the bug I reported for kget is fixed, but the fix didn't make it in time to kde-4.3.0rc3. So, I believe we won't have that boring problem on KDE-4.3.0 (official version). But then I found another bug, this time on Konqueror --> https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=201245 OK, happy testing [ Edited Thu Jul 23 2009, 09:41 ] | ||

So... now it is official. Grab it, test it and have fun with it Tell me if you find anything wrong. [EDIT] Today the KDE guys released a patch to fix a "not so nice" bug. So I have already recompiled and packaged kdelibs, and it is already on the repository (kdelibs-4.3.0-x86_64-3_ken.tgz) | ||

Anyway, this post is to announce that last KDE4 version (kde-4.3.1) for Bluewhite64-12.2 is on the repository. You should also upgrade akonadi and strigi. This is the last set of KDE packages I make for -12.2 because right now I am already upgrading my computer to bw64-current. And that's because we are very close to the release of bw64-13.0 So, I hope to be making the KDE-4.3.1 packages for bw64-current tonight. See ya | ||
