[kde-unstable] Plasma 5.3 beta

Plasma 5.3 beta packages are up for testing in [kde-unstable].
New in this release: plasma-mediacenter, plasma-sdk. See the official announcement for other changes.
Report packaging issues to bugs.archlinux.org, other issues to bugs.kde.org. Note that this requires enabling the [testing] repo.
Happy testing!

It appears I broke something. I canot use kdesu anymore. Even tried kdesudo, just to be sure. I then reinstalled kdesu and tried to run it again. Short c&p of what I'm seeing:

    after logging in the splash screen appears and later disappears leaving white blank screen
    there used to be red X button (with title could not load this plasmoid when hovering over it) in the place where i had folder view in 4.2.4. it disppeared after i deleted ~/.kde4
    the screen shows no reaction o any keys or clicks except alt F2 and alt ctrl del
    in alt F2 commands can be typed but cannot be launched (as if they dont exist). task manager can be opened from there and it shows the normal kde apps (plasma etc) up and running
    alt ctrl del logout menu works normal
    UPDATE

  • [kde-unstable] KDE Applications 15.04 Beta

    Packages (x86_64 only) are available for testing in the official [kde-unstable] repo.
    New applications in this release: kdenlive, telepathy-kde
    Ported to KF5 in this release:
    - kdeadmin: kcron
    - kdeedu: blinken, cantor, kbruch, kgeography, kiten klettres, kmplot, kstars, kturtle, kwordquiz, rocs, step
    - kdegames: bomber, bovo, granatier, kapman, katomic, kblackbox, kblocks, kbounce, kbreakout, kdiamond, kfourinline, killbots, kjumpingcube, klines, kmines, knetwalk, kollision, kpatience, kshisen, ksquares

    Please report packaging issues to bugs.archlinux.org (using [kde-unstable] in the description), upsteam issues to bugs.kde.org
    Known packaging issues:
    - cantor is missing, compilation fails at the moment
    - kdeartwork is not packaged, it's mostly stuff for KDE4 which hasn't been updated for years. Same for kde-wallpapers, kde-base-artwork.
    - l10n packages are not available, so new KF5 apps will not be translated
    - rocs depends on grantlee-qt5, which conflicts with grantlee-qt4, so currently can't be coinstalled with some KDE4 apps such as kdepim, kdevelop or skrooge. Hopefully will be fixed before the final release.

    No. Both: Dolphin and all KDE-Baseapps will be in 15.08.
    Personally I use dolphin-git version (from AUR) and it works pretty well. It depends only on baloo-widgets from git (and AUR). The all other dependencies are in repositories.
    I was going to try this but following the baloo-git dependency, it seems to depend on a lot of git versions
    I've just modified PKGBUILD of baloo-widgets-git:
    # Contributor: Andrea Scarpino <[email protected]>
    pkgname=baloo-widgets-git
    pkgver=r408.ebfa75c
    pkgrel=1
    pkgdesc="A framework for searching and managing metadata"
    arch=('i686' 'x86_64')
    url='https://projects.kde.org/projects/kde/kdelibs/baloo'
    license=('LGPL')
    depends=('baloo-frameworks')
    makedepends=('extra-cmake-modules' 'git' 'kdoctools')
    source=('git://anongit.kde.org/baloo-widgets')
    replaces=('baloo-widgets-frameworks-git')
    md5sums=('SKIP')
    pkgver() {
    cd baloo-widgets
    printf "r%s.%s" "$(git rev-list --count HEAD)" "$(git rev-parse --short HEAD)"
    prepare() {
    mkdir -p build
    build() {
    cd build
    cmake ../baloo-widgets \
    -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release \
    -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr \
    -DLIB_INSTALL_DIR=lib
    make
    package() {
    cd build
    make DESTDIR="${pkgdir}" install
    It depends only on stable baloo-frameworks and... so on, it works.
    Then build and install this baloo-widgets-git before dolphin-git, and after that install dolphin-git from AUR. This solutions is for those from us, who want to use baloo with dolphin.

  • [kde-unstable] KDE SC 4.10

    Hi all,
    the first beta of the 4.10 series has been released.
    As usual, you find the packages in the [kde-unstable] repo, which only contains beta/rc releases.
    Read install instruction from here.
    NOTE: It requires [testing] enabled.
    kde-games has been split, two packages have been renamed
    - kdegames-libkdegames -> libkdegames
    - kdegames-libkmahjongg -> libkmahjongg
    There're two soname bump; this is the list of the packages that you need to
    rebuild:
    libkipi.so.9 -> libkipi.so.10
    libkdcraw.so.21 -> libkdcraw.so.22
    - digikam
    - kipi-plugins
    - calligra-krita
    Also, there are:
    A new dependence: nepomuk-widgets
    A new game: kdegames-picmi
    A new print util: kdeutils-print-manager
    A new runner: kdeplasma-addons-runners-dictionary
    A new set of wallpapers: kdeplasma-addons-wallpapers-qmlwallpapers
    kdeadmin-system-config-printer-kde, kdeartwork-aurorae, kdeutils-printer-applet have been removed from the KDE SC.
    Please report any packaging bug to our bug tracker.
    KDE bugs go in the upstream bug tracker.
    Have a nice update and testing!
    See the list of known issues.

    Hm, the "desktop widgets" locker isn't really thought through I think. You have to configure it like you would configure a standard plasma desktop, but it seems you can't resize the plasmoids and you have to do it without a window manager... So some text inputs like the city chooser from the weather plasmoid don't work. Also, the folder view for choosing the "dia show" folder is broken, half-transparent white until you right click on the correct spot.
    If you forget to lock the widgets on your lock screen it is trivial for someone to find a file chooser and do arbitrarily evil stuff. Also, if any of the plasmoids allows to open a file chooser you loose to. Also, if you use the "dia show" background people just need to right click and they can open a folder view. Also, if you click switch user, the login mask just gets kind of flat and wide and is impossible to recover (I'm even using kdm!).
    Killing plasma and kwin recovers your ability to unlock (+1 because even if plasma and kwin crashes the lock screen is still there) but with compositing kwin is at the moment seriously broken, won't let me switch windows correctly and moving windows kind of hangs. I think I need to restart X now...
    Nice idea but for a beta it is pretty poorly implemented I think. Feels more like a concept demo.

  • [kde-unstable] KDE SC 4.13

    Hi all,
    it's again time for a new major release of KDE Software Compilation.
    The first beta of the 4.13 series has been released.
    As usual, you find the packages in the [kde-unstable] repo, which only contains beta/rc releases.
    Read install instruction from here.
    NOTE: It requires [testing] enabled.
    The following packages have been added:
    * kfilemetadata
    * baloo
    * baloo-widgets
    * kdeedu-artikulate
    * kqtquickcharts
    KDE is migrating from Nepomuk to Baloo, because of this, I built KDE without Nepomuk support.
    Dolphin, KDEPIM and Gwenview have already been ported to Baloo. It seems that KActivities will not be ported away from Nepomuk in those 4.x releases.
    Amarok, KDE-Telepathy, Digikam and more still use Nepomuk, but future releases will not. You can take a look to this list.
    Please report any packaging bug to our bug tracker.
    KDE bugs go in the upstream bug tracker.
    Have a nice update and testing!
    Watch the list of known issues.

    Until recently veromix worked fine but now it doesn't. I think this is the problem:
    File "/usr/share/apps/plasma_scriptengine_python/pyappletscript.py", line 22, in <module>
    from PyKDE4.plasma import Plasma
    RuntimeError: the sip module implements API v11.0 but the PyKDE4.plasma module requires API v10.1
    According to their changelog they changed it for their sip v4.15.5 release http://www.riverbankcomputing.com/stati … /ChangeLog
    Downgrading sip, python2-sip and python-sip to [extra] brings this:
    File "/usr/share/apps/plasma_scriptengine_python/pyappletscript.py", line 20, in <module>
    from PyQt4.QtCore import *
    RuntimeError: the sip module implements API v10.0 to v10.1 but the PyQt4.QtCore module requires API v11.0
    so I guess PyKDE is just lagging behind and everyone else is already using the new thing?
    edit: Maybe they made a mistake with their release tarball? I have not tested it, but I got the PKGBUILD from here: https://projects.archlinux.org/svntogit … e/PKGBUILD and made it build from the kde 4.13 branch of their git repository and it works: http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=rdjEJ9tU
    Well, except for
    Error connecting to veromix-service:
    org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.Spawn.ChildExited: Process org.veromix.pulseaudio.qt exited with status 1
    But maybe that solves itself after the next kde restart.
    edit2: It didn't.
    For some reason it doesn't launch some dbus service foobar.
    python2 /usr/share/apps/plasma/plasmoids/veromix-plasmoid/dbus-service/veromix-service-qt.py
    Then it works.
    Also, in the last kde update the former issue with pykde got solved I think.

    Are you using phonon-xine? Please try to switch backend
    Well it's weird. I left my computer for a while (and turned id down). After booting, KDE still tell me that it can't find my sound chipset and ask if It should definitively forget it. As I currently listen to some music with firefox, my bet is on a "working sound system with a KDE issue". I'm investigating this issue.
    edit: the information you want : switching backends doesn't solve the issue.

  • [kde-unstable] KDE SC 4.9

    Hi all,
    the first beta of the 4.9 series has been released.
    As usual, you find the kde packages in the [kde-unstable] repo, which only contains major beta release.
    Read install instruction from here.
    NOTE: It requires [testing] enabled.
    kde-multimedia has been split, so there's no kdemultimedia-kioslave in 4.9, instead you find:
    - kdemultimedia-audiocd-kio
    - libkcddb
    - libkcompactdisc
    Packagers should update their deps when 4.9 hits [extra]. In the meantime, this is a list of the packages that need to be rebuilt if you enable [kde-unstable]:
    - k3b (replace kioslave with libkcddb to depends)
    - audex (replace kioslave with libkcddb, libkcompactdisc to depends)
    - kaudiocreator (replace kioslave with libkcddb, libkcompactdisc to depends)
    - soundkonverter (replace kioslave with libkcddb to depends)
    - tellico (replace kioslave with libkcddb to depends)
    Also, there are:
    - a new kdebase-runtime dependence: nepomuk-core
    - a new game in kdeedu: kdeedu-pairs
    - a new kdebase-workspace dependence: kde-base-artwork
    - a new runner: kdeplasma-addons-runners-bing
    kdesdk-kdeaccounts-plugin, kdesdk-kdepalettes, kdeutils-ksecrets have been removed from the KDE SC.
    Please report any bug to our bug tracker[4] for any packaging bug.

    Do you have multi lib qtcurve installed? I removed this and got it working whenever the repo opened.
    Confirmed: "Workspace Appearance" in system settings crushing if qtcurve-kde4 is installed. I don't understand what's that multi lib is all about though - qtcurve is in community repo.
    yep, same here, thanks for finding out!

    Before upgrading, I was using 4.10.4 with desktop effects enabled (OpenGL 2/Native). After upgrading, only the mouse cursor was displayed and the whole screen is black. There were ghost-like menu animations if I click on the supposed area of the kickoff launcher or hidden notifications. Had to manually killed startkde in a virtual console and select failsafe mode to successfully load the desktop.
    Tested that all OpenGL modes are borked with black screen when QT mode is native. Had to change to XRender/Native.

  • [Solved] How to install KDE unstable

    I've been meaning to try KDE4.5 to see if it is any more to my liking then the previous versions of KDE 4.
    So how would I go about installing KDE 4.5 on my arch install?

    Okay thanks that worked. I wasn't aware that the order in pacman.conf actually matter.
    It does because the name of the app is the same (kde) it will pick it up from the first available repo that has the app/group named kde.
    also, since your question has been answered, please mark the thread as [SOLVED]

    please use the appropriate thread for [kde-unstable].
    There is no kdeaccessibility-iconthemes in [kde-unstable], how are you installing KDE? Did you read the wiki page?

  • KDE 4/KDE 5 (Plasma 5) rewrite

    Some work has started on a KDE 4/ Plasma 5 / Plasma rewrite. The reason I personally got involved was that I found the information (particularly about Plasma 5) slightly unclear and confusing as to what was "KDE 5" specific, KDE 4 specific and generally valid. You will find information on the KDE wiki discussion page and at https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/User:Chazza/KDE.
    This is not intended as spamming a new Wiki rewrite for comments, but as KDE is such a  widely used environment, comments on writing it before commiting to it would be very welcome. Thus, comments are invited.

  • The kde-unstable 4.4 issues/discussion thread

    i am opening this thread in order to discuss problems and general stuff refering to kde 4.4 from kde-unstable repository.
    I start with the first problem i encountered this morning when i upgraded my system :
    I have a problem with nepomuk daemon not starting. I tried to enable it in systemsettings through "Desktop search" menu, and i realized that "Desktop search" is missing. Do i need to install anything extra in order to have these settings back?

    I'm stupid. How to use kde-unstable repository?
    I have added this to my /etc/pacman.conf:
    [kde-unstable]
    Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
    After that I did this:
    yaourt -Syu
    :: Synchronizing package databases...
    core is up to date
    extra is up to date
    community is up to date
    archlinuxfr is up to date
    kde-unstable is up to date
    Now what? Like I said, I'm stupid

  • Discussion on kde 4.4 on kde-unstable

    As kde 4.4 is coming, I wanted to try kde 4.4 from kde-unstable ( I used ProgDan's repo before).
    Everything is working, except nepomuk. There is no "Desktop search" menu in System Settings !
    Which packages should I reinstall to check if something is missing ?
    Oh, I reinstall the whole kde 4.4, and there it is. But Nepomuk/Strigi won't start...!

    as you see we have exactly the same problem.

  • KDE and plasma 5

    Hello everyone, since Plasma 5.0 and Frameworks 5.0 are out, I wonder if Arch is going to smoothly upgrade the KDE package or if it's going to require a clean install or something more advanced. I don't want to rush into the new version installing kf5, kf5-aids and plasma-desktop (as suggest the wiki) without knowing everything is going to be fine, so I ask:
    Would it be better to wait, install the packages the wiki suggest or do a clean install? What do you think? Thank you.

    Plasma 5 packages in AUR are installed in /opt for now so they are coinstallable with KDE4. At some point it the future I guess it will move to /usr and will replace KDE4, but for now you can install and try it while keeping KDE4 installed at the same time.
