As discussed in the KDE meeting today (part of the summary): |
2 |
|
3 |
6) enterprise useflag for kdepim stuff (a use flag to follow the enterprise |
4 |
branch of the kdepim repo, only for trunk) |
5 |
The problem is that kdepim in trunk currently is broken, more specifically |
6 |
kmail as mail storage is being migrated to akonadi, and it seems it will stay |
7 |
broken for a while. Tampakrap tried to package the enterprise branch a week |
8 |
ago, but some packages failed to compile, so it may need more work. There is |
9 |
also an enterprise switch in CMakeLists.txt, but since we are splitting the |
10 |
module, we need a new batch kdepim ebuilds that will block the current kdepim |
11 |
ones. This will allow us to have an always working kdepim though. It seems a |
12 |
lot of work that noone seemed interested to do, so we decided to announce it |
13 |
in gentoo-desktop mailing list and call for help. Tampakrap will do it. |
14 |
Speaking of trunk, we also discussed about the 4.5 snapshots, and if we should |
15 |
provide them. We decided that since kdepim is broken, we won't package them |
16 |
yet, until version 4.4.70. Alexxy will take care of them. |
17 |
|
18 |
I guess the above says it all. So we are looking for ideas and volunteers for |
19 |
this. I'd say the development can start in kde-crazy, as i don't want to mess |
20 |
with the kde overlay. I still have some eclasses and a few ebuilds, but it's |
21 |
not complete yet. I can push in two days. |
