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 MurrayMcAllister: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Docs/Beats/BackwardsCompatibility/KDE3?action=diff&rev2=5&rev1=4 The comment on the change is: changing markup and lists to be in sync with cvs ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ In order to achieve this goal, Fedora KDE SIG members have made two changes to the KDE 4 `kdelibs-devel` packages: * The library symlinks are installed to `/usr/lib/kde4/devel` or `/usr/lib64/kde4/devel` depending on system architecture. - * The `kconfig_compiler` and `makekdewidgets` tools have been renamed `kconfig_compiler4` and `makekdewidgets4`, respectively. + * The {{{kconfig_compiler}}} and {{{makekdewidgets}}} tools have been renamed {{{kconfig_compiler4}}} and {{{makekdewidgets4}}}, respectively. These changes should be completely transparent to the vast majority of KDE 4 applications that use `cmake` to build, since `FindKDE4Internal.cmake` has been patched to match these changes. The KDE SIG made these changes to the KDE 4 `kdelibs-devel` rather than to `kdelibs3-devel` because KDE 4 stores these locations in a central place, whereas KDE 3 applications usually contain hardcoded copies of the library search paths and executable names. Note that `kdebase3` does '''not''' include the following: - * a complete KDE 3 desktop (workspace) which could be used instead of KDE 4; in particular, KDE 3 versions of KWin, KDesktop, Kicker, KSplash and KControl are '''not''' included + * A complete KDE 3 desktop (workspace) which could be used instead of KDE 4; in particular, KDE 3 versions of KWin, KDesktop, Kicker, KSplash and KControl are '''not''' included. - * the KDE 3 versions of `kdebase` applications such as Konqueror and KWrite, which are redundant with the KDE 4 versions and would conflict with them + * The KDE 3 versions of `kdebase` applications such as Konqueror and KWrite, which are redundant with the KDE 4 versions and would conflict with them. - * the `libkdecorations` library required for KWin 3 window decorations, as those window decorations cannot be used in the KDE 4 version of KWin + * The `libkdecorations` library required for KWin 3 window decorations, as those window decorations cannot be used in the KDE 4 version of KWin. - * the `libkickermain` library required by some Kicker applets, as there is no Kicker in Fedora 9 and thus Kicker applets cannot be used + * The `libkickermain` library required by some Kicker applets, as there is no Kicker in Fedora 9 and thus Kicker applets cannot be used. Please note that, as with any backwards-compatibility library, developing new software against the legacy API is discouraged. -- Fedora-relnotes-content mailing list Fedora-relnotes-content@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-relnotes-content
