OK, a few weeks ago some information about our work on KDE4 was unofficially
disclosed. Now, here is a status update. We now understand KDE4’s build
system better. Basically, KDE4 builds/works well but is not yet ready for
Productive operation. The complete KDE4 4.0.1 (without i18n) distribution
is now in the test tree. We’re working on the co-existence with KDE3 to make
sure that we can install both KDE3 and KDE4 together on the same system. Today
I’ve committed a test patch from David Yeske that allows to use the USE_CMAKE
macro to clean up the Makefile. The first build tests with the USE_CMAKE macro
look fine. In the next Days i’ll play more with the cmake marco to see how this
works and check to find some bugs. (I hope I won’t find any). And then it’s time
to rewrite the bsd.kde.mk to create the first USE_KDE* marcos and to start the
discussion about a good PREFIX solutions.
Naja, ich bin mal gespannt, nur weiter so.
