Question quanta plus on slackware 13

Just installed Slackware 13 - read that Quanta Plus was part of kdewebdev - executed ./kdewebdev.SlackBuild - still can not find QuantaPlus in Applications list. Can anyone give me a pointer as how to get QuantaPlus up and running.
Linux 2.6.29.6-smp KDE 4.2.4

The current stable build of kdewebdev is for KDE 3.x ... maybe that is the problem.

Welcome to LQ.

Kdewebdev3-3.5.10 is available for Slackware 13 ..

ftp://ftp.heanet.ie/mirrors/ftp.slac...13.0/packages/

You will need qt3 and kdelibs3 from the same link too.

That is not true. kdewebdev for kde4 *is* stable. kdewebdev != quanta. There are more apps than just quanta in kdewebdev, otherwise it would be called quanta.

For a kde4 version of quanta I might point you to this, but beware, this is far away from the quanta in kde3. (Quanta in kde4 will be a set of kdevelop plugins)

Thanks for the link. One problem...
kdelibs in this repository seem to be x86_64 in the i486 directory. I'm hesitant to use it. I would like to get back to using quanta. Do you know who owns heanet.ie? Would you be able to verify that kdelibs is built for i486?

' x86_64 ' is a typo. Is really i486.

The package works, I use it for 32 - bit.
The typo was reported one or two months ago ?

And as all mirrors contain the same packages,
it's not a 'heanet' error. Please see for yourself :

I'll give it a go. Thanks for the info. I don't know what you mean about the other mirrors. I can't find that package elsewhere but as long as it is only a typo I won't worry about it. It will be nice to have quanta beck...that's the main thing.
Thanks again!!

Okay...upgraded kdelib3 and qt3 to the versions in the repo. When I try to start quanta I get
Code:
bash-3.1$ quanta
quanta: error while loading shared libraries: libcvsservice.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Is there a dependency that I'm possibly still missing?

The list is longer than this but too long for the forum. All of the warnings are of the same nature.

Can this be let alone and considered console spam or should this be addressed?
Thanks again for this find. It's good to see quanta back on my desktop.

Guess, it is KDE 4 which is interfering.
( As you can see from the most of the warnings.)

I have removed all kde 4, and use all the packages
kde 3.5.10 .
No warnings, when I tested quanta seven hours ago.

I think, the warnings can be ignored, warnings are
not really errors, usually just an information.
It should not disturb the work, you do in quanta.

That's what I was hoping. Quanta seems to be stable even with kde4 installed. I like it better than Bluefish or Kate since I can set up projects on FTP so navigation is mindless. I'll try it for a while to see if it crashes. So far, so good.
Thanks again for the info.

Did not helped to me...
Hi All,
I had installed all the /kde directory during Slack13 installation, including kdewebdev-4.2.4, but after typing "quanta" i got just "command not found" message.
Then I tried to compile kdewebdev-4.2.4 from source from Slackware13.0 DVD, succeeded, but stil the same message.

I tried the method you described above, I installed kdewebdev3-3.5.10, qt3, kdelibs3 and kdesdk3, all the packages installed successfully, but I still get the same error.
By typing just "qu <Tab>" I did not get anything useful all the time.

To me it looks almost like kdewebdev does not really contain quanta...
Other KDE apps such as Kwrite... run well.

Any ideas what else to try?

Thanks a lot!

# post 13 , @ hectolitre .. welcome to LQ.

Installing this ..

kdesdk3-3.5.10-i486-3.txz
ftp://ftp.heanet.ie/mirrors/ftp.slac....10-i486-3.txz

kdewebdev3-3.5.10-i486-opt3.txz
ftp://ftp.heanet.ie/mirrors/ftp.slac...-i486-opt3.txz

.. will provide /opt/kde3/bin/quanta

You can use that as the start command, and hope for 'quanta'
in your path after a reboot ?
( I can type quanta .. and it will start.)

Install quanta4, it's in trunk/extragear/sdk - http://websvn.kde.org/trunk/extragear/sdk/
kdevplatform and kxsldbg are dependencies you need for quanta.
