Dear Wiki user, You have subscribed to a wiki page or wiki category on "Fedora Project Wiki" for change notification. The following page has been changed by KevinKofler: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Docs/Beats/Devel/KDE4DevelopmentPlatform The comment on the change is: Write blurb about the KDE 4 Development Platform New page: Fedora 8 includes KDE 4.0 (beta) development libraries. The following new packages are provided: * kdelibs4: KDE 4 libraries * kdepimlibs: KDE 4 PIM libraries * kdebase4: KDE 4 core runtime files These packages can be used to develop, build and run KDE 4 applications within KDE 3 or any other desktop environment. The kdebase4 package also includes a beta version of the Dolphin file manager as a technology preview. One known issue is that Dolphin currently fails to start up when run from the KDE 3 menu, it works when run from Konsole. There may also be other issues. If you need a stable version of Dolphin, please install the d3lphin package, which is based on KDE 3 and can be safely installed next to kdebase4. These packages are designed to: * comply with the Filesystem Hierarchy Standard (FHS) and * be completely safe to install in parallel with KDE 3, including the -devel packages. In order to achieve this, we made 2 changes to the -devel packages: * the library symlinks are installed to /usr/lib(64)/kde4/devel, * kconfig_compiler and makekdewidgets have been renamed kconfig_compiler4 and makekdewidgets4, respectively. These changes should be completely transparent to KDE 4 applications using cmake to build (the vast majority) because we also patched FindKDE4Internal.cmake to match these changes. Note that kdebase4 does '''not''' include the KDE 4 Desktop (kdebase-workspace, i.e. Plasma, KWin version 4 etc.), which is still too incomplete and unstable for daily use and which would conflict with KDE 3. -- Fedora-relnotes-content mailing list Fedora-relnotes-content@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-relnotes-content
