Hello everyone, |
5 |
|
6 |
I've finally brought the kde cvs ebuilds up to speed. See |
7 |
http://www.gentoo.org/~danarmak/kde-cvs.html for info and downloads. |
8 |
|
9 |
The KDE CVS ebuilds are in-testing ebuilds for in-testing software. Only use |
10 |
them if you're prepared to be a beta-tester for me and an alpha-tester for |
11 |
kde. Unless you have some very good reasons for running kde cvs HEAD code, |
12 |
there's no real reason for you to use them; stop reading here. |
13 |
|
14 |
However, they happily live side-by-side with a stable kde installation, so |
15 |
there's no risk of havig no working stable kde (but see the Issues with |
16 |
multiple KDEs heading on my webpage linked above). |
17 |
|
18 |
Featureset in brief: |
19 |
- - ebuilds download current cvs HEAD sources and compile and install them in |
20 |
the usual way. You can use your already checked out kde cvs moudles, too. |
21 |
- - Choose a cvs mirror server. Switches servers in CVS/Root files |
22 |
automatically. |
23 |
- - cvsup support has been removed (i.e. from the kde3-pre era); kdevelop, |
24 |
koffice and i18n cvs ebuilds are still missing (to be done tomorrow). |
25 |
Prerelease (3.1_alpha1) ebuilds now live in generic portage (if you haven't |
26 |
noticed yet). |
27 |
- - All KDE versions live happily side by side. |
28 |
- - Many other features planned, see website. |

The webpage is pretty much exhaustive (except in its listing of known issues), |
31 |
so I won't repeat the details here. If you're interested, go and read it. |
32 |
Email me with any bugreports or suggestions. Enjoy! |
33 |
|

Oh, and I highly recommend using ccache. It enables me to emerge kdelibs (with |
35 |
gcc3) in 20 minutes instead of an hour and a half. It's great for nightly cvs |
36 |
builds. |
