Also, would it make a difference, because I don't run MySQL, I just have the package there, because it's needed to be present, for Akonadi.

Well, I could be right, because using that package caused even more problems.

However, I did find the solution here, for those interested.

Cheers.

I've built a bunch of packages over the past few years, but I haven't done much with patches. What's required to apply this patch and get things working?

Thanks,

Has anyone one got akonadi to work under Slackware 13.0 x86_64 stable with 4.3.1 package? It's not really that critical to me but it bothers me that it doesn't work. I upgraded to the new mysql package under -current to get the innod inclusion peice. However I have still had no luck. I can generally get past the mysql stuff but akonadi has issues registering with d-bus.

KDE 4.3.2 has landed in current. Yay.

and on that note, if anyone downloaded the 4.3.2 packages before the BUILD tag included "_vb", then you may need to reinstall the kde packages (including oxygen-icons, soprano, PyQt, sip, akonadi, ktorrent, skanlite)
either using "slackpkg reinstall" or download the new packages from -current and "upgradepkg --install-new --reinstall"

take care,

Vincent,

Do the packages in -current contain the fix here for the problem with Regional and Language settings lock-up?

Thanks,

Yes its included. Its the source/kde/kdelibs/klocale.mutex.diff.gz file.
The three patches combined in one.

this new kde stuff (+dependencies) should go to slackware(64)-13.0/patches

Of course it won't.
The /patches directory of any Slackware release is for security fixes, not for software upgrades. You can always upgrade to slackware-current.

Of course it won't, was clear and it is more wish I have couse it would spare me a lot of administration time and kde cost me already enought time (and nerves) until now.

there was some xpdf security problem in the last time.

does this not effect any component of kde 4.2.1?

(sorry for the trial, but I have currently somehow enough of doing system administration tasks, need time and concentration for my every day(real) work)

I have slackware 13.0 installed, and don't want to upgrade to -current on this machine.
I just downloaded the 4.3.1 packages with

Code:

wget -r -np -nd --accept=txz http://cardinal.lizella.net/~vbatts/kde/kde4-packages/4.3.1/x86/

to a temp dir, as suggested.

My question is this: since I didn't install all the 4.2.4 KDE packages (ie: I don't use akonadi,PIM, GAMES or EDU) should I use

Code:

upgradepkg --install-new *.t?z

or

Code:

upgradepkg *.t?z

?

slackd · 10-23-2009, 09:15 AM

use this command

Code:

upgradepkg --reinstall --install-new *.t?z

upgrade everything from current.
