OK, reinstalled the package and all apps are now present.

Upgraded and everything appeared to be running okay.
And then out of the blue while browsing in Firefox I got a kernel oops.
I'm just not quite sure how to report or if more is needed than the following.

Also, something I had not noticed before as I rarely use Calligra.
I created a simple test file in both Calligrawords and Calligrasheets.
Saved the file and attempted to open them and got the following message:

The manifest file seems to be corrupted. The document could not be opened.

Quote:

Could not open /home/alpha/Documetns/test3calligrawords.odt
Reason: Not a valid Calligra file: /home/alpha/Documetns/test3calligrawords.odt

Testing the created file at:
http://opendocumentfellowship.com/validator

I get:

This file is not Valid OpenDocument 1.0!

error

Cheers

I get the same. Several of the xml files inside the odt are incorrectly formatted with missing ">" tags.

Is anybody else seeing this problem with KTimeTracker? On start there is an error box with "Could not create the KTimeTracker part."
According to post #19 and #21 here https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+s...im/+bug/864975, a rebuild of /usr/lib/kde4/ktimetrackerpart.so with altered compile options may be a fix.

I think the calligra bug is now fixed upstream
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=298134

we will have to wait until Pat apply this patch into Slackware-Current packages

Thanks for your hard work guys! Just got done upgrading kde to 4.8 and i ran into a little snag... after I re-booted and typed in startx to go to kde I was thrown out of it.. Seems like kde won't start for me. Have to use xfce for now. Any ideas as to what I might have done to kde?

try to rename .kde to another name and give another shot of startx
by the way, have you make sure that you have upgraded/installed all the new dependencies of KDE 4.8 and fully upgraded to -Current?

As far as I know I am fully upgraded to current, I did a fresh install yesterday. Will upgrading via slackware current pull in all of the dependencies, or will I still need to add those separately? I'm getting a message "cannot contact kdeinit4". I did rename .kde, but that did not seem to help.

You will need to install new packages mentioned in the changelog, not just upgrading installed packages
If you use slackpkg, then it would be easier

Code:

slackpkg update

slackpkg install-new

slackpkg upgrade-all

Also run the following command to get rid of several packages which are no longer part of Slackware:

Code:

slackpkg clean-system

Be careful to DESELECT every package which you want to keep (i.e. every custom, non-Slackware package you added yourself) before you click OK!

Eric

Pat hasp applied the upstream patch for calligra
The invalid document bug should be resolved by now

Thanks for the help, it is much appreciated. I'll try that.

just a note,
to kde konsole.dektop entry

in my opinion the Exec entry for konsole in konsole.dektop
should not be
Exec=konsole -e $SHELL -l
but only
Exec=konsole

I think Exec=konsole -e $SHELL -l m
makes the login shell (bash) ignore .profile and similars in ~/
and the first tab in konsole will not contain your configured environment
